  1. Some electric problem or with the circuit breaker box. Have you since plugged it back in and is it working okay?
  2. I was a fan of "What's My Line" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What%27s_My_Line%3F https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bennett_Cerf
  3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_World_War_I_Museum_and_Memorial
  4. Not everything. Just things that interest me. I wonder why people don't post more? These forums are more than just politics and escorting.
  5. For some Wilson's Dream is a nightmare! The USA had no business in getting involved in the Great War. His 1916 campaign slogan was "He Kept Us Out Of War". LIAR!! He waited until April 1917 until after the Tsar had abdicated. Mustn't be allied with an Autocracy. FDR had no problem allying with Comrade Stalin.
  6. I was watching the recent episode of "Blue Bloods". In her role as ADA Erin went to visit her father the Police Commissioner. He was with his two aids. All three were sitting down. When she was announced and entered the room none stood up. I was surprised.
  7. I'd love to have a haircut (it's been several years) and a shave (it's been six months).
  8. https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/10-proven-benefits-of-kale#section11 I don't think that I've ever eaten Kale https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kale It's a type of cabbage. I do not like cabbage!
  9. He said that he was studying his GRE. I was unfamiliar with that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graduate_Record_Examinations
  10. If only he had lived! How different the world would be today! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archduke_Franz_Ferdinand_of_Austria I have a place in my version of the Inferno for his assassin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gavrilo_Princip
  11. I think it's a bad combination whether in the driver's suit or as a passenger. In the recent episode of "Magnum P.I." Magnum's two best friends were driving. The one in the passenger seat was eating using chop sticks. Imagine if the driver had to slam on the brakes? YIKES!!!
  12. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Flanders_Fields
  13. https://www.va.gov/opa/vetsday/vetday_faq.asp I remember years past outside the grocery store there would be some veterans group selling paper red poppies. I hope that many here will remember to wear one. Afterall this is 100th year of the ending of the Great War.
  14. I was watching the recent episode of "Magnum P.I." and these two things were in it. First the food https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poke_(Hawaiian_dish) And now the game https://healthandfitnesshistory.com/ancient-sports/ancient-hawaiian-ulu-maika-bowling/
  15. Rather than syrup I prefer honey.
  16. The actor who played Nellie's husband on "Little House" was gay in real life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Tracy Sadly he died of AIDS
  17. https://www.encirclephotos.com/image/quadriga-statue-at-grand-palais-in-paris-france/ I just found this. I'm partial to quadrigae. Maybe one of the world travelers here has seen it? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ For those who think a quadriga might be too much here is a biga
  18. Whether physically or verbally? On the recent episode of "How to Get Away with Murder" Connor and Oliver were kissing on the street and some brute walked by and said "Get a room faggots". Connor asked him what he said and then they got into a physical fight. Connor gave as good as he got.
  19. Close. But in France Liberty is called Marianne https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marianne https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marianne#/media/File:La_R%C3%A9publique_(Jonzac).JPG
