No, mamma. He passed away many years ago. He was a good guy. I think that he even bought a member that he liked a computer.
Fortunately there was no tv when I was growing up, so I was always outside doing stuff. Even after dinner until 9 o clock or so.
This thread goes back to 2005. Makes me kind of sad when I see folks that were here --some for 5 years ---even 10 years and more---just gone. .
2005 was back when I lost my PC and cabin to the fire-- I am so glad to be able to reconnect with some of my old friends! Thank you for resurrecting this thread. It's nice to be here again. Good job, brother.
mine forever, saved my life so to speak, really that and living out in the boonies and being able to take walks away from "civilization", but the first season ever of star trek. that was, when it started, really the only thing on tv, that was like worth anything to me. spoc was my role model for how to survive a context of authority, respectfully because that is/was part of surviving it too. really that was what got me through high school with the context of my life being what it was otherwise at the time.
I remember getting our first TV, a Majestic. Something like this: Saturday mornings we'd get up and watch RFD #9, which was the farm report, then some mouse cartoons that didn't talk, they just danced around and squeaked. Then shows like: Sky King Fury The Cisco Kid Rin Tin Tin Lassie Sgt. Preston of the Yukon The Lone Ranger Etc.
Dennis the Menace, Hazel, Bewitched and I Dream of Jeanie were all filmed on Blondie Street which was a bunch of fake houses on a Warner backlot. There have been times I would see the Hazel house on Dennis the Menace and the Stevens house on I Dream of Jeanie. The Hazel house was used in the Gidget movies with Sally Field.
