There's only one thing that I know how to do well
And I've often been told that you only can do what you know how to do well

And that's be you. Be what you're like. Be like yourself.

I am a delicious ham sandwich with extra ham.

|They do say you are what you eat!

You might be asking why I have posted this. 

Sometimes when you feel a bit blue and things seem only to be going 'south' you have to remind yourself of who you are and why you are a good person.

It helps.

Gloom, despair, and agony on me..

Couldn't see the videos from the status update on the Forums page.  Glad someone was on top of the Hee Haw version.

BydoEmpire   I LOVE YOU!
Not a lot of people will get your comment. 

I wish ya the Best Vince!!

Might it be something different (Flu perhaps?)...Or a mutated version.   Hmmm.   At any rate,  Keep us posted.  You'll definitely kick its ass again!!

Do you already have symptoms?   Maybe you won't have any this time. 

Hey Atarian. No. Well very mild I'd say. Got a headache, but I suffer migraines anyway, I think in part due to my tinnitus. 

Assuming second time around will be easier, better. I nearly died or felt that way back in March/April. 

It was some ordeal. I really urge everybody to take precautions and protect themselves.

Hopefully, "that's what she said"

Ah right, thanks two six. Never knew that!

Also US Chocolate. Urg...

What really frosts me about U.S. chocolate (actually two things)... my favorite candy bar of all time 'PB Max', made by Mars, was discontinued - despite being profitable - by the family because of their disdain for peanut butter! How frickin' stupid is that?

First major offense though, is when Hershey's changed the formula of their Whatchamacallit candy bar. The original candy bars were made of peanut butter crisp coated in a thin layer of chocolate. In 1987 the formula was modified to include caramel. CARAMEL!!  

Assholes one and all!  lol

Do tell! I promise not to steal it and beat you to market.

Your alright, Adam.  😏

The biggest issue with ideas is, they tend to cost a whole bunch of money to do, which stops most good ideas becoming great ideas.

Fortunately this idea needs nothing more than diligence on my part.

I don't think I am able to pick up your 1 million pound idea.  The idea of that makes my back hurts.

One of my favorite NES titles. Sold my collection years ago, and this is one that HAD to be part of the rebuild.

NES version is very very close. The c64 version is my fave outside of the Coin Op. I just wish Ste Ruddy had known of the secrets, but nevermind. Both are fine fine conversions.

I can't really stomach most Hollywood films, as 99 percent of them are fecal matter. I just watch a few foreign films per week. I will watch American sci-fi movies though.

Well if I can throw one out you might like.

La Haine.

Black and White. 

French.

1995.

Quite appropriate to the current climate and in my opinion, an out and out classic.

Wasn't Blind Date the movie with GWAR in it?  So that scene ruled!

Cheers! Long way to go, but on the right road now...

Congratulations!  I've been taking the opportunity to drop some weight myself this summer.  So far, over 40 pounds lost since mid-June.

Wow! Jay, well done! I once lost 75LB but that was without the wonky thyroid...

It's harder this time round but I have a determination to get there.

Hiya Vince!    

Nice ta see ya back

Atarian7, yeah eating good. Looking after myself. Saving having a drink for Christmas. Hey Gold! Good to see you, mate. 🙂 I'll be on here less, but I am back.

Welcome back, Vince!

I stopped using Facebook ten years ago, and have never looked back.

Thanks everyone. Needed that. Got things done.

I agree Farcebook and Twatter are toxic. The gangsters behind them only think about the money. The blood money that is.

It would take one day to implement a parser which rejects any status update or post using racist, bigoted or misogynistic language. It would cut the bullying / harassment down by 90% in one day, but they don't give a flying fuck.

It's an experience. It's a hobby. It's a life. It's. Something. To. Do.

Goes with the general aviation culture. Like cops & donuts. It just is.

Not much different than one of us spending $50 or $100 on a hunk of plastic that sits in a cardboard box.

I've never had much money, Keatah, so I just can't understand it. Of course I understand having experiences and wanting to 'live'. Especially now.

I've never paid $100 dollars for a game, I think the most I have ever paid was £25 and it was for a Mint compilation. 

I wouldn't worry about some bitchy guy posting remarks. I gotta coupla 2 or 3 loyal followers myself. Most of us do. Consider it cheap entertainment. What will they say next!?

I need screenshots, because I don't believe you!!!

Is it windows 10?

It happened to me too once.

Not so long ago, film and tv player stopped playing mp4s until it repaired by itself.

Yeah, it really happened!

Well... A Jaguar is 100% worth the money, the car, a classic. A British classic. You will not lose money and you have a highly refined beautifully designed precision engineered masterpiece.

I was talking about the Jaguar console and the nature of how a simple discussion can soon become a flamewar.

I totally misread that as "The Jaguar. For all you aggro nerds."

Could work both ways, Kaeru!

the complexity of the human condition, rarely given a full and true depiction, captured brilliantly

We all have the capacity to fall so far and yet retain much of who we are. 

I thought the two Alan Bennets would annoy me, but it actually felt like it gave it more veracity  

I'll keep it in mind.

Well worth your time. It plays out a bit like a murder mystery in that more and more is revealed, and, by the end you feel a great sympathy for her. I won't spoil it by saying anymore, but what looks to be a very simple story is far from it!

Yeah well, in my mind I've always felt you lot were 'a bit above Scotland!' Whereas in reality, if you made a straight diagonal line from London going North East you would be closer to reality.

Either way you're a lot colder, but when the Yanks go on

you'd think that Chicago, New York and Detroit never have any rain let alone snow!

Next week the temperatures are expected to drop by 10 degrees, plus we'll get copious amounts of rain.

You might think I am very odd but I love rain and thunder. I have always been the same. I like to be inside with a coffee or tea and a book to read.

yeah, |I've been like that. But more recently people pull out phones.

Music. I love my music and if I can't remember something I know I know it just does my head in. I go round and round mentally trying to grab it, I know the info is in there. Trying to search through my mental filing cabinets!

I love it, but I'm likely to quickly forget whatever I've just "learned" by looking it up on a whim of curiosity.

hey Zoyous! If it wasn't edited by anyone and only the raving nutters having power to wipe out good valid edits and bung in any old tosh, I would love Wiki 100%.

I edited a page for a person I GREW UP WITH and knew everything about. They wouldn't take it that I knew where he was born for love nor money.

In the end I gave up. 5! Years later, someone else edited it and they found a source they didn't discriminate against. I was referencing the guys own website for flips sake.

Everyone's broke man.

See what you did there, Kiwi! giving that a like.
