So the Air Force would pay to send my wife and kid and household items and car (which I should have left there) back to my home.I was in those same years, but from 1964. Why did you do the extra year?

All my cordless tools are the same brand so the half-dozen batteries I have will fit them all.

I was in the Air Force from 1963 to 1968. My second assignment was Hickam AFB in Honolulu, Hawaii. I was there from 1965 to 1968.
Iolani Palace. This was the state capitol building when I first arrived in Honolulu in 1965.
This is the new building that opened a couple years after I got to Hawaii.

How about all those Boeing B-17s that crashed and burned in the 1940s? It's a wonder that Boeing even survived into the 1950s.

The thing that bothers me about fishing and fishermen is the fishing line. The line gets snagged on bushes, rocks or whatever and the fishermen cut it and leave hundreds of feet of the crap laying around for the wild animals to come along and get tangled up in it. If they can't free themselves they can wind up starving to death.

That's why I have a grabber tool, keeps me from bending over and crawling around on the floor.I tend to hang out with older folks, and I've noticed something amusing. If something falls to the floor, people don't rush to pick it up. Like me, I bet they are asking themselves two questions: Do I really need that thing? If I bend down that far, will I be able to get back up?

The trouble with this Cone of Silence is that you can still read lips like Hal did in 2001: A Space Odyssey.I thought that the Cone of Silence was a technology of Spy Organizations...

I guess I'll pass on the movie then.Understanding a lot of what is going on relies a bit on the events of the TV series (from Australia).

I record old movies from the local PBS station for later viewing. I really like the old silent movies. However, never cared for Charlie Chan.
BTW, did you know that Charlie Chan wasn't played by a Chinese actor. Yeah, I know you did.

What about the prefixes that went along with those dial phones. The prefix for my folk's phone was Ivanhoe, as in IV9-8294. Yes, I still remember that number from the '50s.
