It's kind of the same way with me, but even when I'm sober I can still have a good time dancing!!!!

I know how to dance. But knowing and doing are very different things.

I am a revolutionary and unique dancer, with my own distinctive style.

Try telling that to the rest of the planet though!

Just been reading about the disappearance of Glenn Miller.

I had previously resolved in my mind that that story of the RAF accidentally dropping jettisoned bombs on Millers plane in the bomb dropping zone was probably the answer, but it seems that that theory has fallen out of favour now.

What triggered me on this subject was this news item about a notebook someone made at the time.....

Glenn Miller mystery: Notebook sheds light on death
One of the most enduring mysteries of World War Two may have been solved with the help of a teenage plane spotter.

Music legend Glenn Miller's plane vanished over the Channel without a trace in 1944.

Now a US historian has written a book which used a notebook from plane spotter Richard Anderton to help prove his theory about the American big band leader's death.

I watched a doc about the slenderman mith : two 12 years old girls lured a friend into the woods and stabbed her 19 times for this "mith".

So, you have casually found yourself reading and researching a particular subject as we speak?

Share it with the rest of the gang!

I have been watching a lot of videos on YouTube about comic book collecting, I've also been delving into vintage toy videos, especially Star Wars toys.

Perhaps you have had a long-standing fascination with a particular subject?

1. World Wars I & II. I'm subscribed to a YouTube channel called The Great War, which goes into really great detail about all sorts of subjects dealing with the first war, from notable people, battles, trench life, soldier rations, etc.
2. Historical Cooking. I love looking up videos that explain recipes from past centuries, be it a hundred years ago or many centuries ago.
3. History in general. I've been known to spend hours on end just watching documentaries about any number of historical topics, depending upon what strikes me at the moment.

Or a book or documentary led you to further investigations?

Here's a weird one. One night, after a MASH marathon, I sat watching a few films about the actual MASH hospitals in Korea, and about the Korean war. That's how my brain works. Like, not at all normally.

Postal carriers say aggressive turkeys stopping mail service

Postal carriers say aggressive turkeys stopping mail service

— ROCKY RIVER, Ohio — Postal carriers say a rafter of aggressive wild turkeys have prevented them from delivering mail to more than two dozen homes in a Cleveland suburb.

Cleveland.com reports residents on a number of streets in Rocky River have had to pick up their mail at the post office because the turkeys have created unsafe conditions for carriers to deliver to their homes.

Rocky River Mayor Pam Bobst said the problem has persisted for the last three weeks. City ordinances don’t allow for the turkeys to be eradicated, she said.


The city has instead sent letters to people asking them to stop putting out bird feed in the hope the turkeys will go elsewhere.


A U.S. Postal Service spokesman says some carriers have been pecked but none have been injured.

Dead singers are now returning - and touring - as Holograms.....


A company is now bringing dead singers back to perform on tour.

Elvis has done the rounds and now it is Roy Orbison's turn.

 

[Doctor Omega]

I just occurred to me that this is like something from the 1970's pages of 2000AD and Mega-City One,

The science fiction of childhood, but it's arrived in my lifetime, which I never expected.





All it needs is Dredd to ride his lawmaster onstage and start blasting some drokking lawbreakers in the orchestra who have planted a thermite bomb beneath Orbison or something to make it complete.

 

[Doctor Omega]

I would love to get fired from the hologram programming team - for spending too much time on IMDF - and then angrily reprogram Orbison for that night's concert on my way out.

It would make the papers the next day, I can tell you!

If You Won a Fortune!






The idea of being wealthy appeals to lots of people...

How would you handle it?

Would you be happy?

Or, like some of these people, would being rich, maybe not be all it's cracked up to be?
