The Spaniards harvested these crystals and sent them by ship back to Europe. It was then that it was first determined how many quartz were in a galleon.

I thought Big Frenchy looked kinda familiar. I just couldn't place him.

I hope all those electric cars are charged up

 Because mandating only electric cars in a state that has the electrical reliability of a third world country is so far looking.

Okay, you might like it, but I'm firmly in the KISS amp.

Our Russian Commander is Sue Ane Langdon who you may recognize from her movie and TV appearances.

Well, it's finally happened

Well..... it looks like I'm finally going to have to migrate the ever more balky and freezing WIN7 to Kubuntu.

And FU Bill Gates and your WIN10.

 

Any geeks have suggestions to make it less of a hassle?

Meet Roy. Our newest addition

He didn't notice when mom went through the gate, and then he couldn't get close to her again until she wandered back in the gate.

 And sorry to say that Fuji's film career didn't take off like he'd hoped.

After the Mc Hales Navy series and movies- he became a VP of Toyota marketing in Hawaii.

And a little about Babette-


"Dark-haired, diminutive Susan Silo -- 5' 3" and 105 pounds -- has had a multifaceted career. She began as a teenage recording artist in the late 1950s and early 1960s. In the decades that followed, she grew into a stage, screen and television actress, eventually establishing herself as a voice artist in movies and television. Born in New York City in 1942 to a family of theatrical performers, she made her professional debut at age 4 and worked steadily on radio, television and the stage during her pre-teen years. She attended Performing Arts High School of Music And Art (now the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis High School) in NYC. At age 15, she took over the role of Rosalita in the Broadway production of West Side Story. At the end of the 1950s, she moved to California to pursue opportunities on the small screen.
Silo's television career began with appearances in episodes of The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, Sea Hunt, The Ann Sothern Show, Ripcord, and Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Her short stature and youth made her an ideal portrayer of wholesome American teenagers, while her dark good looks allowed her to take on more exotic roles as well. She also revealed a natural flair for comedy that manifested itself on series such as Burke's Law and McHale's Navy. The latter show paired her with Tim Conway in an extended physical comedy sequence involving a runaway PT boat that was almost worthy of Buster Keaton and Marion Mack in The General (1927). And it led to her big-screen debut, also paired with Conway, in McHale's Navy Joins the Air Force (1965).

So the conventions are over.

This was them according to CCR

Happy 45th Rocky Horror!

The stupidest thing you'll hear all day

In case you don't recognize him, he's the leader of the NFAC- the wannabe New, New Black Panthers who shot three of themselves in Memphis. Because they're "marching" locked and loaded.

302 me!

Your Tuesday night spy movie.

So it's Kamela

Farm life

So the wife bought a round bale for the paddock.
I don't know where she got it, but horse hay is going for $80/bale.

The horses barely touched it and she bought another one. So I was going to push that one out and let the donkeys have it.

Then the horses noticed me giving it attention with the tractor and decided that it was interesting again...

Girls and guns

They don't always have to be hot chicks to make a splash.
