Most sequels are lame. Back in my movie going days, I only paid to see two of them: Rocky II, and the 2nd Star Wars. Both are considered at the least decent sequels.

Unless I missed it ---no ZOOM ?? My kids loved that one. They spoke "Ubbi-Dubbi". My older daughter could do that goofy thing with her arms. They made pretzels from a recipe on the show. Was fun stuff for pre-teens.

Recalling a friend who got into a NYC cab and found Lawrence Taylor's (NY Giants football star) paycheck stub on the floor. I forget the amount, but at the time it didn't seem as much as you'd think it would be.

When did they change jobs listed as secretary into office assistants et al? Probably around the same time that sales clerks became associates. Silly word world in which we are living.

My younger daughter had a cat that was a "snow cat" when we lived back in CNY. He'd sit in the snow and watch me shovel. Our other cats would have loved it here in SW FL.

There is a piece of property near me where the owner keeps a good sized group of goats. It is listed as "farmland" so the taxes are low. The guy is sitting on a gold mine when he decides to sell it for development. Meanwhile it is a true curiosity.

When I was teaching I'd do a bit on bad science in the movies and TV. Like the Incredible Shrinking Man would become the incredibly stupid man and the Invisible Man would be blind. The students had fun with it.

Reminds me of a time when I was trout fishing with my older son on a Catskill Mountain stream that had wild brook trout. He caught one fish about 10 inches long that had a very extended belly. I wondered what it had eaten and cut it open. The fish had a foot long snake as its last meal. Wow. Those trout were like fresh water barracudas.

When I first began coming to SW FL where I now live, most folks seemed to drive Lincoln Town cars or big Caddy sedans. The parking spaces were so wide a person exiting a normal sized car could push the door open wide without worrying about hitting a car parked next to them. Lately it seems that parking spaces have become narrower and it is not longer the case. The hassle is then you get a pair of Lincoln Navigators parked on each side. Makes backing out very hazardous.
