  1. Looks like a sapphire to me Absolutely stunning model!
  2. Switzerland issues every adult a gun and trains them how to use it: Switzerland has lowest gun-related crime rate in the civilized world.
  3. You learn more painlessly from the mistakes of others
  4. 220 grit is pretty coarse for body sanding, I'd advise using a finer grit so your primer won't need to fill such deep scratches
  5. You are correct! Several of the same actors appeared in Robin Hood, Sir Lancelot, and the Buccaneers.
  6. Wow, 600 episodes! I have the "Ultimate TV Westerns" set which has 150 episodes and another box set of westerns with 50 episodes. I also have the complete "Adventures of Sir Lancelot", and "The Buccaneers", which were produced by Hannah Weinstein, who was the producer of the Robin Hood series. Kind of an interesting factoid: Hannah Weinstein moved from Hollywood to Britain during the Mc Carthy era and hired blacklisted writers to write episodes of Robin Hood, which were then sent back to the USA.
  7. We have the whole series on DVD, we've watched every episode many times and still enjoy them We also like old '50s western series like Cowboy G-men, Shotgun Slade, 26 Men, the Gabby Hayes show, Cisco Kid- fun stuff!
  8. My wife and I are huge fans of the old Robin Hood TV series from the '50s to the point of our taking up archery using old longbows, decorating our storage shed like the Blue Boar Inn (the tavern at the edge of Sherwood Forest where the outlaws hang out) and drinking uisge beatha out of Scottish highland cattle horn cups. I've also learned to play most of the songs and incidental music from the show on guitar.
  9. It's nearly impossible to get REAL haggis in the US as sheep's lungs are not approved for human consumption.
  10. I was just going to mention that. I guess I'm lucky in that my local auto parts store carries both T-235 (grey) and T-237 (white) PlastiKote primers
  11. I got the Playboy calendar for married men- it has the same girl every month
  12. Right and wrong are not absolutes, for instance it's generally accepted that it's wrong to murder someone, but what if that someone is Hitler?
  13. My favorite polishing cloths are old cotton diapers, but nowadays they're as hard to find as a rusty Corvette.
  14. I grew up listening to the real Don Steele and Charlie Tuna
  15. I can't really engage in philosophical discussion without broaching the subject of religion
  16. Stepped in cat poop on my patio There oughta be a law
  17. That doesn't work so well with masochists
  18. I stepped out of the shower and caught my wife dressing me with her eyes
  19. My first tech job was doing nightly backups on HP 2116B mainframes
  20. That's the band, what's the name of the song?
  21. I used to have a sign that read "armed response to unauthorized intrusion" It worked great, but my wife didn't like it
  22. 'Cause the wind was my mother, the highway is my brother
  23. Polk Salad Annie by Tony Joe White
