Although, I can only think of one "signature phrase" from a show that I can remember ever repeating. . . .that is Gary Coleman's "What'choo talkin' 'bout, Willis?" I felt sorry for Gary. . .

hope all is well. Just to let you know. . . there's a football shaped flower basket remaining in its place of honor. My reminder of no matter how bad things appear. . . there's always hope.

That voice was probably heard more at weddings than any other in history. . . "We've only just begun" became the go-to. And a little off topic. . . .the most purely instrumental song at weddings was the Pachibel Canon in D minor.

Only with the rowing machine at the gym. However, I found the more I worked out on it. . . the faster time went (the exercise time/space continuum).. I remember when I first started. . . and naturally they have that damned time reading staring you in the face. . . I would shoot for say ten minutes. And then at a snails pace, I'd row for, let's say a minute. . . felt like five. And I'd sayby RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
How they actually track each player with his every movement. . . To me, everybody looks the same. The only thing I can distinguish are what teams are what. After that, I'm lost. Same with horse racing. And auto racing. . . especially short track.by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub

Good Lord. . . have you seen some of these megasyllable, primarily African names showing up in the draft? Back in my days, early 70s, when I worked the sports desk it was mostly Smith and Jones. . . we did have a few "ski's", but they were phonetically easy to spell. . .

Amazing. It's like the world wide web was keeping track of our conversation and gifted me with an article that just came up on that very ship. See what I mean? Reminds me of "Old Ironsides."by RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub
I was treated so well and enamored of the German people . . . the other thing is the beauty. . . the history. Interesting that you said that, because, I, too, had planned to take a European out and backpack around. What I love about Europe is going from one country to another each with a different culture and history, it would be like going from St. Louis to Ohio.

Sorry, this got me thinking. It was Christmas eve. . . and I was hanging out in the barracks in Ludwigsburg, Germany where I was stationed. I had befriended a couple of local families who "adopted me" And then I got the call. It was from Detlef, one of my German friends. Now, understand, in Germany, Christmas Eve is very private affair for primary family only. Detlef askedby RAMbeau - Bucky's Pub

Questions asked and answered. What got me thinking about it was a depiction of a new destroyer? I saw. Don't remember what it was, but lit virtually had no windows. . . and I thought.

And now that I have way too much time on my hands, I'm going to ask. What was life like on a carrier. I mean it isn't exactly a luxury cruise. . . not even close. Vickie and I have spent time on cruises, but at the end, I was ready to get off. Way too confining. And that was after a week. So, what's it like with 4,000? sailors on a floating bullet.

Yeah, I can see that it might not survive. . . of all the venues, it's the most expensive and sophisticated. The beauty of auto racing. though, is they don't need a crowd.

When I was working on the Ford racing program, I got into this discussion with someone who had been inside the Detroit scene for some time.
