  1. Yes. Winston Churchill lived there, and Charles Rolls (Rolls-Royce) was born there.
  2. That one didn't last long. Should we do another like it?
  3. Your comment is interesting as well. The word "recording" will probably live on because it's a generic term which may be applied to any medium. "Taping" should follow "film", though it's difficult to predict that one as many people still have tape machines of some sort (audio or VCR), whereas most people do not have film equipment. "Taping" will be part of our lexicons for some time. When I'm speaking to someone in person, I use "taping" in lieu of "recording" mainly due to my having been involved in two (analog) home recording studios, and made use of several others in various bands. Everything was tape for 98% of home studios while digital was in commercial use when I moved away from the medium. The history of digital recording is fascinating. There is a great deal of irony in it's beginnings - i.e., (better-than-digital) analog first, analog next, back to digital (now). Sorry to ramble on.. you got me to thinking.. Amended
  4. I know more than a few homeowners in the rural areas of Maryland who have those large, enameled, cast iron stoves in their kitchens. They look pretty cool, as they are custom painted in your choice of color - or pick a standard. Beautiful, with polished brass looking like gold. One guy has a fire engine red unit which is ducted to not only cook, but heat the whole house.
  5. True. My impression is that Jackson's character has recently "got religion". Those that have do tend to go on and on at times about most anything as they relate it to their new insights. Characters such as this always remind me of Tuco in The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly: "When you have to shoot... Shoot! Don't talk."
  6. I third that Every time I watch it, I always feel and wish there were just a little more to it. It is, however, just the right size
  7. I just watched that YouTuber.. WOW! Thanks for the heads up. The visual experience will be terrific. The enhanced audio will be booming 7.x digital surround sound which I, to this day after seeing a dozen or so contemporary films, do not like. I like the nuances the new surround sound systems bring out, but it's those booming, thundering, blasting sounds I dislike so much. I feel as if there's an earthquake happening while I'm trying to watch a film movie. Just think... not too many years from now, people will no longer use the word "film" in relation to movies.
  8. YAYYYY lavender!! Thank you!! Thank you starlit & Lonesome, too!!
  9. I still use these two quite a bit Use "the jig's up" a lot. Also, "Cheese it, the cops!" I use "C-note" at least several times a year
  10. 481 Allright. But next time I go down there, I'm wearing a snorkel.
  11. I can hear corduroy pants in the distance..
  12. Yea.. we'll glom onto anything around these parts.
  13. As my Irish grandmother on my mother's side would say, "Tree A s"
  14. Seven E s (not to be confused with Siamese)
  15. I've also noticed this phenomena. Hmmm..
  16. You must have fainted into somebody's arms when you saw Picnic for the first time.
