Ok, so here is an old picture of me. This was my 20th High School Reunion picture from 9 years ago. Me, sitting wearing the light blue shirt. The man behind me was an old grade school friend, and the man to my right was my other half. He died 2 months after this picture was taken (brain tumor).

Car sub woofers that are 20 Hz. Edit: Thumping cars that have subwoofers of 20 Hz. The range from 50 Hz to 80 Hz causes paranoia and extreme stress. Sounds good inside but the sound waves have to go somewhere. So low frequency vibrations cause problems for some people (like me).

Favorite Defunct Roller Coaster/Ride
SmokiesFriend replied to GrapesLie's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Not having may coasters under my belt, I will say that my 'flat' ride was Round Up. As an improvement they turned it into Moonraker...sort of. -
They did. Stride says they have to take if from you so you will chew another piece.

Too FAT To Ride
SmokiesFriend replied to GrapesLie's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Congrats to you for sticking to your diet/exercising and losing the weight, keep it up. (Being a new person with the club, I hope there is a time in the future I can ride with you....) -
What is your favorite TV-series?
SmokiesFriend replied to Hattuchili's topic in Random, Random, Random
Warehouse 13! Family Guy, Eureka (first couple seasons), Project Runway, Top Chef, Older shows: ER (earlier ones), Roseanne, CSI (Vegas), Law & Order (& Criminal Intent), Dead Like Me, Charmed. Interesting, there are so many to choose from. Go way back (set the wayback machine) Lou Grant, Quincy M.E., Emergency, Fantasy Island, Love Boat, Bionic Woman, Wonder Woman, Flamingo Road, Remmington Steele....the shows some of us grew up with. -
Walter, Bubba, Peanut, and Achmed all done by Jeff Dunham...Love his stuff. Enjoy his actual comedy before the show starts. Like the Prius being the 'gay' car.

Another Good One! Dog Pack Attacks Gator In Florida At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a certain justice manifested within that cruelty. The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered the "predator" can still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and survival of the pack mentality bred into the canines. See the remarkable photograph below courtesy of Nature Magazine. Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it from breathing, while another dog has a hold on the tail to keep it from thrashing. The third dog attacks the soft underbelly of the gator. Not for the squeamish Laughter is good for the soul.. Have a Great Day! Later Gator!!!!!!!

There was a bit of confusion at the store this morning. When I was ready to pay for my groceries, the cashier said, "Strip down, facing me." Making a mental note to complain to my congressman about Homeland Security running amok, I did just as she had instructed. When the hysterical shrieking and alarms finally subsided, I found out that she was referring to my credit card. I have been asked to shop elsewhere in the future. They need to make their instructions, to us seniors, a little clearer!

It's already frowned upon but in some states gay men can adopt children, even babies. Good choice of where to get information.

Whats The Weather Like Where You Live?
SmokiesFriend replied to RtherBOnACoaster's topic in Random, Random, Random
Being in the Desert SW, our high on Sunday will be around 84 degrees. The Summer, 'its a DRY heat!' Would rather be on the grill than in the soup. (When it is 110 and no huidity.) -
Being an old fart, whatever is playing in my head at the moment. Let's see: Right at this writing....Too Much Time On My Hands by Styx.

Hate people that stop in the doorway of a store to talk on their cell. Also, those that park in the no parking lane while their friend is getting $100 worth of food...not beer.
