  1. She graced the bridge of the Enterprise with style and class. RIP Nichelle.
  2. Walter Koeing who played navigator Chekov is still around.
  3. A thunderstorm came though early Sunday evening and displaced the hot and humid weather that was hanging around here in the Boston Metro Area for the last few days with much cooler and drier temps. Today is much more pleasant and we got some much needed rain to boot. It's time to go cruising.
  4. Great work thus far Tom. I've built models of Square Bodied Chevy and GMC trucks before but the one in the first photo is the first that I've seen with the engine molded into the body. What brand is it?
  5. He was in the right place and at the right time. And he had a cool ride to boot.
  6. I think I'll watch it again tonight.
  7. He also played the role of J.J. McQuade's old friend Lakota in the 1983 Chuck Norris film "Lone Wolf McQuade" He's the 5th actor that passed away inside of a week. ? May they all RIP.
  8. I just saw his passing on my local news online and posted it. We lost James Caan, Larry Storch and now Tony all in the last four days. ?
  9. We lost James Caan at 82, Larry Storch at 99 and now Tony Sirico at 79 all in the last four days. ;-(
  10. Correct. Both had great chase scenes. You can see "To Live and Die In LA" and for free. There's a website out of the UK called Bit Chute that I saw the movie on it recently. Type in the movie's title and the year that it was released and sit back with your popcorn.
  11. I checked his bio and he was less than 6 months from turning 100 years old. RIP Larry.
  12. Congratulations.
  13. Director William Friedkin who directed the 1971 Crime Drama classic "The French Connection" also directed another Crime Drama film from 1985. What was the name of the film?
  14. The last of the 20 plus decommissioned school buses that my boss was going to have scraped was hauled awat this morning. There's now more parking space available for the other buses that are still in service and for the personal vehicles of the drivers. Before, it was a nightmare.
  15. Cheese pizza, mozzarella sticks and Mountain Dew. I'm not much of a cook.
  16. Outstanding job Francis. The detail on every square inch of your truck is absolutely jaw dropping.
  17. Atlantis listed the Nomad in it's 2021 catalog but not in the one for 2022. It could be that the people at Atlantis found issues with the tooling and postponed the model's release until a later date after the issues could be rectified.
  18. We have a winner. ?
  19. As a school bus driver, I'll pose a question. Which of the following is the most important piece of equipment that I have on the bus? A. Fire Extinguisher B. Horn C. Lights D. A Bottle Of Extra Strength Tylenol
  20. I looked over all of the models that I've acquired over the years including the "Crown Jewels" as I call them and I'm quite happy. However, I'm getting a feeling that I'm missing something or the collection is not quite complete. Has anybody got the same feeling?
  21. We have local channels which are digital but I've gotten used to not watching any TV for the last 18 months. In fact. I gave my TV to my brother after his was giving up the ghost.
  22. 90 days to finalize a dispute is totally nuts. It shouldn't have to take that long.
  23. I got a card in the mail today from Comcast asking me to return for cable TV and even offered me discounts but I just threw it in the mail. I yanked the cable plug in January of last year after Comcast kept pulling off my favorite channels and bundling them into packages that I had to pay more to get the channels back. Pulling it saved me almost $1500 last year and my blood pressure went down. I don't miss it to this day.
