question. A lot of the 70's talk is over my head, since I was a kid
throughout most of the 70's.
Incidentally Molly, since you are an 80's fan as well, you might be pleased
to hear that CTS, the station that used to broadcast the uncut Brady Bunch
episodes up until this week, will be airing 'Growing Pains' and 'Family
Ties' - that is unless you already are watching them on cable in the US. I
haven't seen those shows for almost a decade now, so I'll be happy.

While I wouldn't even pretend I'm funnier than the Democratic National
Convention...
An old Brethren preacher was dying. He sent a message for his Doctor and his
Lawyer, both church members, to come to his home. When they arrived, they
were ushered up to his bedroom. As they entered the room, the preacher held
out his hands and motioned for them to sit on each side of the bed. The
preacher grasped their hands, sighed contentedly, smiled and stared at the
ceiling.
For a time, no one said anything. Both the Doctor and Lawyer were touched
and flattered that the old preacher would ask them to be with him during his
final moment. They were also puzzled; the preacher had never given them any
indication that he particularly liked either of them. They both remembered
his many long, uncomfortable sermons about greed, covetousness and their
avaricious behavior that made them squirm in their seats. Finally, the
doctor said, "Preacher, why did you ask the two of us to come?"
The old preacher mustered up some strength, then said weakly, "Jesus died
between two thieves ... and that's how I want to go."

Monkees movie Head. There was a scene where Micky Dolenz was in the desert,
and he was screaming for the noise to stop, so all the noise stopped. Then
there was a voice saying, "Quiet....isn't it, George Michael Dolenz." I think
that's what I got the subject from.

You know, I'm not sure how many people use REMARQ.COM, but remarq is
officially finished. It was bought out by CP.NET, which could mean
*why* it's a bit quiet here. Sigh, I miss remarq already :(
Now, I'm back to DEJA.COM, which I left over 6 or 7 months ago, and
still getting used to the format again. I'm still trying to figure out
whether I like it or not! :)
Do you know of any other free sites where I could use usenet/newsgroups?

You lurkers out there taking notes should understand that sympathy is
dispensed a little differently here in the '70s ng. Still got that
polyester leisure suit? We're here for you. C.W. McCall 8-Tracks stashed

summer heat? That's your problem. Unless you can somehow tie it to "Billy,

Naz, I don't know about other online sites like Deja.Com but I gave up
on using the web for my newsgroups *years* ago, it was way too frustrating
and time consuming. I've been using Free Agent for eons and have had
zero problems with it. Free download, you only need to be online to load
in the messages and to send your replies, you can read and compose
your messages offline. Go here:
Otherwise, I think you're stuck with Deja.Com :-( And my apologies if we've
had this conversation before, I tend to trumpet Free Agent any chance I get!

I saw them, they saw me see them, and sat still, (so to speak) I hung

I told you guys I wondered, and then I LEFT! Really. I didn't take
any pictures either, cuz I'm not into insect porn.

Normally it is VERY dry here. During monsoons (approximately 6 weeks
each summer, so they say, but it's usually longer) you can feel the
humidity build up every day. It's almost harder to take that way, cuz
it's kind of dry and then all of a sudden everything starts to drip and
heat up and . . . I can't BREATHE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then the storm hits then leaves and it dries out a bit . . . till the
next day. We have what we call August spring where everything is very
green and new.
So if my excuse for being goofy isn't that I live in a dry climate,
maybe it's the fumes from my paints and turpentine!
