    History lessons for my son is always a good thing, even though my wife claims he is not even 5 and I do this purely to please my freaky obsessions..no idea what she means..

    ...Gemini 4, June 3rd 1965. Ed White just making the first EVA!!!

    And as you can plainly see from this NASA photograph White never wore a Speedmaster during the EVA.

    dang, you are making me feel guilty. I put the iPad with Paw Patrol videos in front of my almost-4-year-old so I could play on OF :whistling:

    I was shocked for a moment, but it's on his left ankle in the shade of course!

    Very cool. Me want.

    I used my new photography tent hoodamajigger to take pictures of watches I should sell. I don't want to sell them, but I figure if I take nice pictures of them, that counts as "selling".

    What about PJ Masks or Peppa Pig? I'm been forced to watch my fair share of Paw Patrol by my soon to be 4 year old (in April) too :confused:

    Have never heard of Pingu.

    Watched my share of these back in the day. I think I still have some of the VCR tapes in the garage.

    But as far as OP, well, wife is about to drag me off to go look at some throw pillows and candles for the living room area. Would much rather prefer the Ed White legos :)

    Well it's another cold, rainy and generally shite day in the Bay Area so I'm occupying myself with Dakar coverage, or at least what passes for it here in the US. Though good on NBC for doing anything at all.

    Not really the same since they moved it to South America I think

    Could be wrong, but Gulliver, being a seafaring man, says that this looks a lot like the harbor at Seahouses, Northumberland

    I work Saturdays. Some are cold & lazy; some are not.

    Legos. Imagine that.

    Not surprising that Sandy has excellent taste in vacation spots, you are luck he takes you along. Did he take you out to the Farnes too?

    Well, this Saturday, tuning and cleaning two fiddles. Our group (see avatar) plays for a dance, tonight. Three hours of thigh slappin', toe tappin', ear poppin', knuckle knockin', country western, folk and hillbilly tunes, with a measure of English, Irish, Scottish, Canadian, American, and Scandinavian tunes. So much pure fun to be had! Three fiddles, two guitars, a 1958 Gibson Les Paul guitar, five string banjo, mandolin, and three in the group sing. (Thankfully, fiddle players aren't expected to sing!)
