That information helped me decide on an air conditioning system for my house in the U.S. of A.. I am not sure how much that is helping to save on electricity, due to the basic cost of electricty having gone up over the winter after it was installed.

I remember transisters when they were the size, more or less, of a peanut. A couple of months ago I was reading up on the upgraded versian of the hearing aid that was given me by the Vetrans Administration. It's about the size of a large cashew. Inside are over 22 million transisters! There must be a versian of AI in it. It is supposed to be able to determine what noise is background noise and what noise is the human speach (or what ever you are listening to I guess) you want to hear and turn down the background noise while isolating the human speach you want to hear.

It's about covering your mouth when you yawn, to prevent demons that caused you to yawn from entering. A person is blessed when sneezing because they have ejected said demon that entered when the person did not cover their mouth when yawning.

But does the boomer poster know how to quote multiple posts? If not, why not educate them? There is always a learning curve.

I have been wearing a watch for more than 60 years. My cell phone is too big to wear on my wrist and a pain to dig out of my zippered pants pocket just to see what time it is.

In 1981 or 1982, I bought a used refrigerator in the United States. I think it was a Westinghouse brand. It was $5.00, a real steal I thought! The seller was only interested in getting it out of the house. In 1984 I sold it for $50.00! I was very pleased with the profit. As I was cleaning the refrigerator before the new owner came to pick it up, I was astonished to find a manufacturing date of 1947. Darn refrigerator was 2 years older than I was! The compressor worked fine.

Windows 95 SE! Off topic of Nigerians but about government agencies and Win 95SE. When I was working as a Federal Agent (must get that in) we had electronic equipment that could be mounted on top of a vehicle in a Thule luggage carrier and controlled from inside with a laptop computer. The control software was developed by an outside IT company. Not sure why since our own engineers were plenty capable of doing the development themselves. After Windows 10 was developed and in use agency wide, the engineers then installed the software on a Win 10 laptop. It would not work. They contacted the IT company and were told, it will only work on 94 SE! As the laptops failed, the Thule carrier with the electronic equipment worth tens of thousands of dollars sat on pallets in storage at offices throughout the United States. One day the engineers started going to each office, to do an install of a modified version of Win 10 into all laptops in use at each field office. I asked them, why don't they use a virtual machine installation of Win 95 SE with the dedicated control software for that specialized electronic equipment. A curt reply, because it won't work! Six weeks later a field wide email notice went out from the engineering office. . Don't dispose of the Thule carrier box and equipment (a week after being told, sell the equipment to highest auction bidder)! We are working to install the Win 95 SE program and the control software into a laptop running a virtual machine. We found that it will run in a virtual computer platform!

Hey! I got some nice underwear made from bamboo cloth! ???? Best part was the ride up and down from some fake French village like place in the mountains, riding in cable cars. Ride was about 20 minutes up and 20 down.

We didn't have seat belts to buckle up with in our vehicles and rode in the back of pick up trucks when I was a child. The following is somewhat off topic. Also had no seat belts in vehicles in Texas when I was in my late teens and mid 20's, back when there were 90 & 95 mph posted speed limits. There was also one highway that had a 100 mph posted speed limit. When I think about those times, I don't remember seeing any wrecks. I did have a cousin and his son killed by a drunk, running from the cops, that was driving over 100 mph in Louisiana in a nearly head on collision. The cousin's wife and daughter survived the wreck with minor injuries. The drunk survived with bruises (the lucky murdering bastard)! No seat belts in those cars either.

I am on Ko Samet Island now. On ferry boats out here, there was no one standing (unless they wanted to I guess). No more passengers than there were seats. On the boat I was on, the only person who did not have a life jacket, was a baby. My two grandkids had their own that I had purchased. What surprised me was the adult life jackets appeared to be new, but that was only on the boat I was on. Leaving in a couple of hours. I will see what it looks like on the way back.

But, trains don't have steering wheels.

That should be 5 mg, not 5 mm!

If you were given medication for the enlarged prostate, that could be the cause of the missing ejaculate. The same thing happened to me. When I asked the doctor about it, he confirmed that the medication would do that. The ejaculate returned when I stopped taking that medication. If I recall correctly, the medication was to help with difficult urination, the reduced flow due to the enlarged prostate. Regarding the reduced flow. I am now on 5 mm of tadalafil once daily for that. It does help, making it easier to urinate.

Then there are those with more than 100,000 posts after only a couple of years (or is it 3 or 4 years). A higher average number of posts in a week than I have in a year. They aren't bored. They are too busy trying to control the threads they post in! ????

Off the subject of touring in Thailand. Just recently went with family and friend to Vietnam for a tour. I was told it was a 4 day 3 night tour. Seemed to be more of a shopping tour than any thing else. It was 2 shopping centers a day with 1 touristy thing a day.

Laser welding? I had a pair of glasses with a nose pad support broken off. Optomitrist store said could not be fixed. The jewlery store with an on site guy who fixed broken jewlery welded it back on with a laser welder. The welder is able to work with very small sized metals.

I have booked accommodations in western hotels since 1988. I do not recall ever hearing that term used during the booking process.

I can't tell you how many billions of dollars I have lost, due to my paranoia. Perhaps one day I will finally get over it and can accept the millions being offered to me!

Funny that you should reply now with that comment about Kelly. I am in Vietnam, leaving today. Been here for four days now. Two nights ago I was watching Married With Children on Vietnamese cable, satellite or what ever the feed is. I saw an episode that I have never seen before. Kelly was supposed to do a tap dance but ended up doing an erotic dance with a male partner. It was pretty good.

I doubt there was a dragon bridge existing in May of 1972. But that would have been nice to see from the hotel roof top.

Which one has the excellent beach, in your opinion? Have been here in Vietnam for about 3 days now, with a family and friends pre-paid tour. Which seems to be more of a shopping tour in my opinion. The beach looked nice and clean. I did not swim as swimming was not in the schedule. Seems to be a pretty modern city in some ways. Definitly not like the last night that I spent here. Da Nang was hit with what sounded like 122mm rockets for about 15 minutes then. Our last night is at Na Ba Hills resort or what ever this, supposedly, French resort is supposed to be. The cable car ride up here was pretty exciting. 4.5 year old grandson kept saying, I like it, I like it, I ...

Is that myth really true?

I have Norton 360. Links stop working sometimes when using the VPN. I have to turn the VPN off then back on to get the links to work.

You can't sell that bridge! I own all the bridges in Brooklyn! I purchased them two years ago! You sir, shall be hearing from my attorneys, Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe!
