I had to add this for fun. 8^)

I just call mine Jeff, keeps things easier

They are different for the PC Gamers who think laptops are more like Game Boys...

@SpiceWare I'll take a guess. Germany, Canada, Holland, England. Bunch of places in different US States.

Various bases in the US. Dad's overseas service was in Vietnam, we didn't tag along due to it being a war zone.  We kept moving after he got out of the military.

Right, got you. Of course. I suppose with job opportunities in the US = possibly 1000s of miles, here 200max.

"Throwing Shapes" reminds me of Vince from The Might Boosh.

Noel Fielding is a bonkers bastard. Did you see 'Luxury Comedy?'

I'll be straight, I don't know who 'Lorenzo Music' was, but George Harrison, John Lee Hooker and Aaliyah went the same year. I think.

Yeah, and Lorenzo Music is the famous TV host, writer, and producer behind the Bob Newhart Show, as well as voicing Peter Venkman* and Garfield. *=In The Real Ghostbusters' first 78 episodes.

@SlidellMan Yeah, that's a very American show BNS and I don't think it ever aired here. I've heard the name before though and I've certainly seen the RG cartoon series and at least a couple of Garfields. I think Sir Nigel Hawthorne died that year too. His biggest show in the UK was [Yes Prime Minister] and [Yes Minister] but he was most well known in the US for The Madness of King George.

Feeling fine now. All good 😊

You do not want to hear what that sounds like.

@jgkspsx I don't know what gets into these people. Like when your teacher gets out a guitar.

Since the Doctor is an artsy person (meant in good spirit), I'm sure he'll enjoy a glass prism to finish it off.

Whenever I see a prism I think Floyd. When I first used one in school, probably when I was 6, I was amazed. As someone who has some kind of thing for patterns and shapes I was mesmerised.

@carlsson You have given me an image to deep fry?

I accept.

You and your -isms shall fall before my digital fryer oil!

Whereas I've wanted to watch Charly but never got round to it. Written by Stirling Silliphant, who wrote one of my favourite films, In The Heat of The Night.

I recommend the book. I am working my way thought the SF Masterworks series by Gollancz. I've only been at it for 20 years. I started collecting them in 2001. 

It's only a short book, but I recommend a slow read. I do that to savour books.

Big books you might bang through but Sci Fi tends* to be on the shorter side so I take my time with them.

I generally think that when books are 600 pages that maybe the author is a bit lazy or self indulgent. A lot of my favourite books are 200, 250, 300 pages.

Like a film NEEDS to be 3 hours.

* there are so incredible exceptions I know.

Oh,...I read that for school.  Tear jerker.

The Rock seems like an okay dude, so I'm guessing Kim Kardashian but I really only know here by name. Maybe she's a nice person, too, I have no idea.

If darkness can equal sadness instead of evilness, I heard from the gossip that Kim is going through a divorce which might fill her heart with negative feelings.

I don't know what you two are going on about, but of course Darkness can equate to Sadness or just Ending.

Yay! They did.

IDK,   Something to do with the Mars Rover?

No. not again!

I can't say yet. Something positive. Positive in a good way that is! Just waiting.

Fingers crossed for me Gold. It is something good, but I can't talk about it at the moment unfortunately. I don't want to count my chickens.

Most late Amiga games got ignored, and this is coming from someone who used to own an Amiga 500.

It's true a lot of people migrated to high end consoles and PCs. I couldn't afford either so...

So,  I've heard that song, as it played in bars and everywhere in the 90's...And I've heard the name 4 Non Blondes.  Now I guess I know what song they did!

That's just me though,...Pretty sure the rest of the world knew that one.

No I think you are right. After it came out, as a song, I knew I liked the song, heard 4 Non Blondes being mentioned, but- only put them together about 5 years later. 

They sort of disappeared and considering it is a wonder they even got one album out!

Haha-I live "in town".

My neighbors have roosters, right near my bedroom window.

What a friggin treat.

We get 'em over the other side. Pigeons on the roof for some reason recently as well. 

Sometimes bird song can be delightful, but other times quite annoying. I suppose if you've had a good nights kip you wake up on the sunnier side of town.

Eeek!

Funny because Right Now, as I write this it's -9F (RealFeel -27) and I'm gonna leave the warm house to take out my trash and probably shovel my walk...Only a couple of inches of snow so not too bad at all, but It's 5:04 PM and if the sun goes down I figure it will get cold!!  I dress in layers so I know how to handle this stuff - Long sleeve, then short sleeve, then flannel, wearing light pajamas under my pants etc,.  and gloves and a Winter Hat of course....

Keep safe !

Yeah, so you are trapping warmth, what there is of it, through the layers. Rather you than me mate. Us Brits are not cut out for Cold weather. Adversely we are not cut out for Hot weather either. 

We sometimes get both. In 1962 it was incredibly cold due to an Anti-Cyclone.

In the last few years summers (which generally consist of between one week and a fortnight of hot consistent weather, it can get as hot as 35 (95?)

For all the Americans talking of it raining all the time in the UK, we generally only get rain most of the time.

In reality it is a perception not born out to be true. We get about 130 days of rain or snow here, I've just looked up.

It once snowed in June here for some mad reason. I was at secondary school, in English.

When I was a kid, I remember a couple of Hurricanes but that seems to be as extreme as our weather really gets, though we have started to get a thing called ThunderSnow ?

I restored it, not sure why it was hidden.  Must have been an American.

Thanks!
