        • Funny thing, my family was one of the first in our neighborhood to have a television set, and even at that age I found it offensive to have somebody yammering at me that I needed to buy this, smoke that, and drink something else. And the "entertainment" was, if possible, usually even more offensive. And now I see most of my neighbors and family behaving as if their lives were one big soap opera. If civilization is going down the toilet, television is the flush lever. [end grandma mode rant]

            Perhaps they think Jerry Springers hiding in the bushes, maybe they’d like to BE on tv - some people have such dull lives they do anything for a pulse . . . ya gotta wonder, at best I occasionally have time to listen to tv -actually watching it’s a special treat smiley
            • I do miss Star Trek, even if I had a TV (and were willing to pay the TV tax on top of cable for decent reception) they don’t show it here. :’(

                Sorry Susan.... Star Trek is in not in production anymore and Paramount has lost interest in the franchise due to the "failure" (right....) of Star Trek Enterprise.
                • Just as well, it’s better to read the books anyway. Still more of those around to buy second-hand than I can ever read grin I strongly recommend "How Much for Just the Planet".

                    What ? Enterprise, a failure huh
                    Bahhhhhhh, if anything the weak link of the chain, to me would have to be Voyager...

                    I didn’t know Star Trek was dropped... too bad... It sure won’t be definitive (can’t be !)

                      Geez, I thought I was the one who digressed a LOT.

                      Anyway, how we coming on this integration? Yes, I’m impatient. Slap me. smiley
