Army of Darkness was my favorite.

"Alright you Primitive Screwheads, listen up! You see this? This... is my boomstick! The twelve-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about a hundred and nine, ninety five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You got that? "

Like Bruce Campbell in Evil Dead.

Sorry, never seen the show.

Please consider that, other than the occasional one week business trip, I haven't been living in the US as a "resident" since 1973 - that's a looong time ago.

In those days, dinosaurs roamed the earth, and scorched traffic lights : vicious man-eaters such as the Cobra, the Barracuda, the Cougar, Wildcat, the Firebird and the irresistible Chargers and GTOs...
...even apparently tame animals posed a threat to that emerging weakling, MAN...
You could risk your life just wanting to stroke an Impala or a Mustang, or wanting to feed the Super Bees and the Road Runners...

Why, I heard of a little boy being literally hipnotized by a fire-breating Pinto (it seems some ordinary Pinto fillies mated with Mustangs and bred this hybrid animal that lived in caves and would only come out at night...)

I've been a life-long fan of Science Fiction ... Time Travel stories have always been a fave of mine.

If I could travel in time?? Well, I really wanna go back and find out just what the hell went wrong with my marriage of 22 years ... I thought my wife and I had a good relationship, but last Feb. she literally got up one morning, declared that she didn't want to be married anymore and left without so much as an explanation why and still refuses to discuss it? Been a rough Ride for me ever since ...

I'm a skeptic when it comes to UFO's, but the Roswell story has been amazingly persistant over the years ... I wouldn't mind havin' a peek at that to see what the actual history of that incident was all about.

Oh yeah ... had to have my beloved 13 yr old dog put down yesterday afternoon ... I'd like to back and give her one more hug before the doc placed the needle in her leg ... Sad

I feel for you, Perry Embarrassed

I've been close to seeing the end of my family as well, not through any fault of mine but simply because after 5 consecutive years of unaccompanied service my wife had had enough of being a full time Mom and a weekend Wife.

Sorry for the dog, too, had one myself as a teenager, 20 years after he died I still expect to hear him huff and puff at the door when I go see my parents... Undecided

Roswell ? Can't, won't comment.

Is there life out there ?

An Italian Physicist, Nobel Prize winner Carlo Rubbia summed it up in his "goldfish bowl" theory:
There's a goldfish in a bowl, and to it that's the universe. It can swim all over, and explore, forget and find again, but that's as far as it can go. It doesnn't matter how many fish there are in that bowl, and how big or small the bowl itself may be, THAT is the universe.

Now, if somebody could only tell him there's another bowl a few feet away... and another near the window, and a few more in the next room... not to mention the neighbors...
...who's gonna tell him about the entire neighborhood ?
Man, there are so many fish bowls, you could lose count !!!
But the goldfish can only go as far as its own bowl, until it learns to jump and look around.

Unfortunately, space travel as we know it with our current technology will only allow us to go and walk on the Moon, even Mars requires a veritable Magellanic Voyage...

heard about this on the radio and a couple of guys called in saying it was

which makes enough sense to me

The problem with the hearing aid theory is that the hearing aid has an earpiece which fits inside the ear, attached by the wire at the main unit which is like a microphone. Ordinarily, the user would not hold the main unit; it would be clipped on at the chest area.

Col. Pescatori -

You are so right about space travel. The distances are so great, I have no idea how we'll ever go beyond our own solar system at best.

Even if we do invent a propulsion system that can power a spacecraft far faster than we can with with only reaction rocket power, we then bump up against Einstein's theory.

Assuming the old boy to be right, you cannot go even as fast as the speed of light, so you can't go to a place a thousand light years away, let alone go the real distances in space that are needed to get into other solar systems and galaxies. We don't live long enough to make the trip.

Now if we can figure out how to transistion from matter to energy, and back again, maybe Capt. Kirk's warp drive might be feasible.

Jerry can you emagen trying to stear that ship going at light speed.
It will never happen, the only way would be to go with males and females and keep having babies and train them en-route,when you get were you are going your ship will be a few hundred years old and in dire need of an overhaul, So you will have to land near a rocket ship jiffy lube. I think this requires a little more thought. Undecided

Mick -

If mankind could figure out how to transition from matter to energy and back, then most of the issue is solved, again given the propulsion system that could drive a craft that fast.

Once you're nothing but energy, navigation is simple - just figure out beforehand the direction you need to go and go for it. But don't run into anything. And neither ship nor crew would age going at lightspeed. Time stands still then.

Physicists have already calculated that at the speeds that spacecraft currently travel, a six month stay in orbit aboard the space station results in the crew saving a few seconds of their life. As speed increases, time slows down. I flunked the only college math course I ever took, so this is way beyond my comprehension.

Interesting stuff, but as you said, way beyond our lifetimes.

All lube points were spec'ed for Klotz oil. It must surely be sitting somewhere, ( or somewhen) in a state of perfect repair.
