I am. I'm pretty gullible... tack on the word "Championship" to anything and I'm in. :laughing But I make light... I like NCAA Basketball. The championship does confuse me a little however. I'm rooting for North Carolina. Why? Good question. I haven't got the slightest idea why. I do that.... somehow, for reasons inexplicable to me, I latch on to a team and that's my team.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
That people leave their homes on big holidays. To leave home on a big holiday - like Christmas, Easter... that's not even a thought for my family. BUT... I understand why many do. So I guess businesses get customers... won't be any of my family however. - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I'm going to have a very good Easter. My grandkids are now too old, (according to them), to hunt Easter eggs.... so for the last few Easters no chocolate eggs for me. BUT TODAY - - - - We have guests... and some of those guest are under 10... which means CANDY for Papa (me). I also have a special wine ready to be uncorked... ummmm, later today. Wine and Chocolate... great combo. :laughiby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
Remember the actor Jesse White? You'd know him if you saw him. He delivered not just the funniest line in that movie, (to me of course), but possible in any movie. Well.... actually he tied with Jack Benny's "Well" when Ethel Merman chastises him. When Micky Rooney and Buddy Hackett are in the plane and failing miserably Jesse White, in resignation, says, "Why don't we just sby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I believe Joseph Cotton made one of those commercials as well. BUT... I believe he died of pneumonia, not lung cancer... but it may have been smoking related.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I still love all those movies and watch them periodically. In my household, (when I was a kid), I believe the annual broadcast of the Wizard of Oz was second only to Christmas for being a 'big event'. We looked forward to it like I look forward to a Ram's SB. Ok, my surprise.... but first my prediction. I don't think ANY of you will remember this movie BUT..... at least for you elder folkby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I re-watched it about 2 weeks ago. It is movie perfection!by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
but overall Star Trek was ON their game. Truly incredible... especially considering it was TV and not a movie. But I have to confess... most special effects from yesteryear impress me. To this day I can't even imagine how they created the special effects in the original King Kong. Today it's all CGI... which is amazing, for sure, but it's the computer's doing the work.

I haven't read much about it, but that's the first article I've read about it that is so 'positive' that it's going to happen in that time frame. Man I PRAY they're right!!!! Something that confused me is that they mentioned it would have a stellar magnitude of -2... near the magnitude of Polaris. But then they say it 'may' be visible in the daytime. Polaris is not visible in daylight, or eby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
He had to be one of the busiest actors in Hollywood history. I can remember thinking that if a movie I was watching didn't have Lou in it then something was missing. :laughing He did it all - Movies, TV, Animation (voice). Sad news indeed.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I have never read that, anyway.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
He was one of my favorite actors. A scene stealer! Playing "Mack" in "Cannery Row" is an all time favorite of mine.... but loved the guy in every role he played.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
Can't remember when I last ate there..... maybe 6 months ago. Great find! This time? Not good. Actually I'd say the appetizers were 'bad'. I won't be returning.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
The only problem I've had at replacing batteries is when a certain brand discontinues a certain battery type.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
batteries. I'm VERY lucky to get 3 years before the battery is toast. They've always provided enough power for most things BUT.... for my weed eater I have a gas model, not cordless. No chance a cordless would work for me with a weed eater.... too big of an area to cover, weeds are too tough.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I mean, not personally. One of the members in my band was a huge C&W fans and I'm pretty sure we actually used to play one of his songs. Don't have our set list in front of me at the moment but I'm going check that out..... something about 'working man'? - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
Probably a dozen of them? maybe more than that. We see mountain lions on our cams almost nightly. And even so it is rare indeed to see one while driving around our ranch. I think they are bolder in the cities... like San Clemente or the LA area in general since they no doubt see people constantly and have grown used to them. - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I once saw a wild boar leap and clear a barbed wire fence. Going UPHILL! Yeah, Coyotes trot... until the "kill is on". Some years ago I was at a youth, (very young kids), baseball game. Probably T-Ball (don't remember). Next to the baseball field was an open patch of land on which a 'city' of squirrels had taken up residence. All the kids were watching the squirrels.

However.... since it's my granddaughters birthday and it's her request to go to "Wasabi Off The Hook" for dinner, (sushi restaurant), I hereby decree that sushi is, indeed, officially part of my diet foods. And while I'm at it.... I'm also adding: $13 Hibiscus Dream blue chair coconut rum, st. germain elderflower, monin hibiscus, pink lemonade & fresh blueberries Funny thinby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I was told that the anesthetic they give you for a colonoscopy, at least for me, does not put you "out". I have no idea what that means because I remember NOTHING during the procedure BUT APPARENTLY I'm awake while they're doing it? If so, I'm awake that is, I can't even imagine the language I'm bombarding them with when they insert that thing-a-ma-jiggy.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
There is no apocalyptic disaster that could eradicate coyotes and rats. Not a meteor the size of Ohio. Nor a volcano with the diameter of Australia. A tidal wave the height of the space station wouldn't deplete the population of coyotes or rats in the least. Dangerous? Well, never thought of a coyote as dangerous. Could be to a small child, I'm sure. Hell on small pets. Although, and wiby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
After our band gigs it was tradition for us to stop in at a breakfast restaurant for breakfast.... which it actually was since we'd get home around 5 or 6am. I grew up not eating breakfast, except for the occasional bowl of cereal. I've always loved cereal. I can eat cereal for dinner. BUT... today a full meal of breakfast food is probably my favorite. All breakfast foods... cereal, hotby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub

So, apparently, all you guys are getting your homes repainted, free health insurance for the next decade, season tickets to the Rams, DirecTV for life + Sunday Ticket, a new Tesla, access to my refrigerator, college tuition at Stanford for all your kids - grandkids - great-grandkids- great-great-grandkids. I hope you're happy. - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I did not know any of that. Can't say I'm surprised, however. It's always amazed me, no doubt because I was born and raised in the country, on a farm, how most people prefer tight quarters. NOT as tight as that island, :laughing , but nevertheless still claustrophobic, to me.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
His family just sent a photo and my son had the smallest possible gelato.... like maybe a half a cup, if that. I took away his man card. I'm surprised Rome didn't run him out of town. Less than half a cup of gelato? That's not even a single BITE! If I had been there I would have denied knowing him. - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
loss of habitat is the biggest threat to all wildlife. Going to be the same for humans in the not too distant future. - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
If you're being attacked then yeah... you can protect yourself. It will be investigated because Mountain Lions are a protected species in Calif.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
You probably read about it. Two brothers - one died from the attack and the other, last I heard, had serious injuries. I expect this to get worse - - - Mountain Lion population is exploding. I think I mentioned that we have more on my ranch than we've ever seen. Hard to get a count.... but we think there are at least 5 on our ranch plus the connecting BLM land. Around 5,000 acres. 5 inby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
