Yes, you are probably right. Getting a little cranky in my old age. Have found there is less and less that still interests me here. New people keep joining, but, not surprisingly, tend to talk about the same things. C’est la vie. I should probably take a break for a while.

Sounds wonderful. Yes, it is a lot more fun.

I don’t think they look that white at all. Look good to me. Most people in show business have great teeth (other than Brits,of course). Originally, I was quite dismissive of the idea (DW and DD thought I should do it) Then I took a closer look. :( Many different colors in there (but a...

Really hard to pick. Been to London dozens of times, Florence, Rome, Munich, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Barcelona, Vienna, Ho Chi Minh City, Melbourne, Really like Berlin. Didn’t care much for Moscow, Tokyo, Taipei, Prague Pretty personal stuff. Besides the actual city it might depend on...

Yes, your right. But it’s getting a little old.

Decided to spring for a new smile. 24 veneers. Will try not to make them too white.

Another one of these “I can’t believe there are so many financial losers out there” threads. Well if you don’t believe it by now, you never will. Let’s stop being so self congratulatory and smug.

I take this test every year as part of my physical. Doc says my lung capacity is 20% higher than predicted fo someone my size. He says that is part of the reason why my fitness level is so high.

Doubt anyone is very good at it. Plenty of opinions though. Most of the talking heads talk about “higher volatity” before things “settle down”. That part is pretty obvious.

I often wake up around 1-2am and have trouble going back to sleep. So I get up and surf the net for an hour or so. Often post here during this period. Go back to sleep for another 3-4 hours. Seems to work fine.

Agree, much too much worrying about what others think. Quite often they aren’t thinking at all.

I know some people think this is fun, but I’ve never understood the fun in trying to predict the unknowable? Might as well have a poll on what the weather will be on a given day next year? Anyway, I would guess it’s somewhere around 10-25% but I only know what I read in the newspaper.

Maybe to varying degrees, but Venice is a particularly good place to do it. Probably because there are no cars and the streets are so narrow and convoluted. Not to mention all the canals. For instance, Dubrovnik wasn’t quite as interesting as the streets are pretty much laid out in a grid and...

Agree. At our Arizona place our BMW’s are commonplace. Rolls, Bentley’s, Ferrari’s, Lambo’s needed to even get a glance. I’m safe here.
