I spy, with my little eye.....

[moe]

So you do, Q.T. Hush!!!

[144man]

I've got you covered, moe.

[westgrandboulevard]

She likes Ralph Rucci.....

[144man]

I haven't heard this for ages, and I've never seen the TV footage before.

[westgrandboulevard]

Great picture quality.....

[moe]

Not bad at all!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Another example of brief fame....but good still to be remembered by some, after all these years.

[moe]

They do appreciate that!!

[westgrandboulevard]

People like to talk about winners and losers, but how many of us can look at a clip from show business history and say "That's Me"....

[144man]

What would we do without YouTube?

[westgrandboulevard]

And Google......

They both permit us to act immediately on any thoughts we have, and then receive the swiftest of responses.....

[moe]

That's the tech age...........

[westgrandboulevard]

Techies we all be, whether we like it or not....

[moe]

We have to be.........or it'll pass us by!!

[144man]

I'm not on twitter, and I'm not on facebook. If I go on them, I'll have to reduce the time I spend on SDF. [[Do I hear cheering from afar?)

[westgrandboulevard]

That's my argument, too. And I get a far more rewarding response here.

If you post as much as your time permits, we can't ask for more.

The usefulness of technology in the flow of information is rather limited by the intelligence of the people who use it. Have you read about the internet fury after a picture of Stephen Spielberg posing with a triceratops he hunted and killed was posted on the web? Unbelievable!

[westgrandboulevard]

No, but the thought of it is bizarre.

As was a text from a friend earlier this afternoon. She was sat in a restaurant, and asked me how I would describe David Gest, as she was thinking it was he who was sitting at the next table. She reported people were queuing for autographs and taking selfies......

[144man]

An old promotional photo from Jurassic Park was posted as a joke with the comment:
"Disgraceful photo of recreational hunter happily posing next to a triceratops he slaughtered. Please share so the world can name and shame this despicable man."

A couple of replies received were:
"That's Steven Spielberg director of Jurassic Park."
"I don't care who he is he should not have shot that animal."

"...if we used that excuse we'd be in prison. I think it's time to say the same thing about animal rights. Steven Spielberg I'm disappointed in you. I'm not watching any of your movies again ANIMAL KILLER I think zoos are the best way to keep these innocent animals safe. Assholes like this piece of s**t are going into these animals homes and killing them."

I suppose some of the posts could just be playing along with the joke.

[westgrandboulevard]

Depressingly, I suspect not......

I bet you could successfully sell those people bottles of low-fat water.

[moe]

.....and get away with it!!!

[westgrandboulevard]

I would make a fortune out of them - except my conscience won't permit it....

[moe]

Remember those pet rocks??

[westgrandboulevard]

Vaguely. Jog my memory....?

[moe]

The equivalent to low fat water. In the 60's. People bought them!!

[westgrandboulevard]

Never give a sucker an even break.....

[144man]

My pet rock was a Pumice.

He originally had a fiery nature and would erupt at the slightest provocation, but I soon wore him down. We became very close, and I loved every pore. He would wait for me in the bathroom and rub himself against me, working himself into a lather. This was the high watermark of our association.

However all good things come to an end, and our relationship eroded. I will never forget that fateful day when poor Pummy was swept down the plughole. I left no stone unturned trying to find him, but alas all my efforts ended in vain.

But I know my Pummy is lying somewhere in that Great Rockery In The Sky. One day I will see him again.

[westgrandboulevard]

That sad incident must have left you, to this day, between a rock and a hard place.

[moe]

Oh the friction you encountered!

[144man]

It didn't take me too long to get over it. After all, there are plenty of pebbles on the beach.

[westgrandboulevard]

Yes. Let it all wash over you....

[moe]

I told someone at work today about the low fat water. After a moment of staring at me [[i.e. you have to be kidding) they laughed!!

[westgrandboulevard]

A laugh is as good as medicine, sometimes.....

And water is always good....

[144man]

...so good it's been passed by the management.

[westgrandboulevard]

...following a motion passed in the boardroom....

[144man]

...Item Number 1.

[moe]

Passed by all parties!!

[westgrandboulevard]

With rapidity.....

[moe]

No objections!!

[westgrandboulevard]

We're told it's best to let nothing go to waste but, in situations like this, it's really for the best to let everything go to waste....

[moe]

Waste not, want not.........

[westgrandboulevard]

Its good to have a regular de-clutter. Not good to hold on for too long....

[144man]

Doesn't all the astronauts' waste on flight get processed and recycled?

[moe]

It's out there!!

[144man]

And that's the truth!

[westgrandboulevard]

The World [[and beyond) is just a great, big compost heap... or slurry store......"

[moe]

I would bet if you, 144man, and I took a trip out into space we'd find a lot of garbage. Maybe that's where Jimmy Hoffa went!!

[westgrandboulevard]

We'd be a long time looking for him!

[moe]

And it's vast out there in space!!!
