Might have seen it sometime pre-millennia, standard fare, Yvonne de Carlo could have insisted on a better direction perhaps, would there be any truth in suggesting that being Merman’s wife well and truly wore her out?

Lucky me, still have 5.1.1, got a boatload of default Apps to remove or trim down, before the fateful arrival of 6. 🙂
Unlucky, as the SIM for the new tablet won’t work, which means presenting a bare neck to the vampires of tech support! 😛 -

American Hustle is worth a look, loud blaring dialog, music and effects are de rigueur in making everything come across as more convincing, did note the nutritional reference in microwaving food, which, believe it or not, sparked a law suit.

Yeah, Taskbar Settings => Widgets, turn off, don’t use MS Widgets much as heavily dependent on FTA state media news delivery. The default settings is there’s quite a bit of polling from news/weather servers, given some investment in time, you could get them to filter thing to taste. 🙂

Ooh, Galactus showed up on that page. Lovely, it’s very much like a Jack Kirby production:

Funnily enough, the movie was originally entitled Rabbits.
You know, there is no google Rabbit World amusement park, there is RabbidsLand and a game though, and watch for those Wabbits – this should have been the main theme for the film:

Another gotcha is is folding bikes were more popular, their parts would be cheaper to make and distribute. Do like the quick release system on bikes, it’s funny that idea was never successfully extended to heavier machinery e.g. wheels on cars. A quick release 20 ton backhoe. 😛

Space Age Bachelor Pad music as it was known, or something. For many, Esquivel is an acquired taste, as with many morsels from Zappa, some will refuse to budge on their way through the digestive tract.

In the “good old days”, such as they were, many trains had luggage compartments in the carriage, or an entire carriage for luggage, a caboose if you will. Different solutions are required today for the commuting cyclist of today, perhaps one or two carriages equipped with extra racks would do the job.
