Sylvester Stallone is making a new movie.I don't remember which channel
it (not the movie) was on last night, or the night before, maybe it was the Overhaulin tv program, but those guys fixed up three 1956 Ford pickup trucks Sylvester will use in the movie. During the Vietnam era, he was teaching at a womens college in Switzerland. www.imdb.com Sylvester Stallone cuhulin |

Most of American tv is so boring, and the old, old movies I like to
watch on DirecTV, I have seen them a million times already. I keep thinking someday I will buy a Lyngsat www.lyngsat.com or a Pansat (I don't know their website.Where you at Lee Richardson? in Evansville,Indiana) satellite rig so I can watch a lot of International/Worldwide tv programs, for free. I wouldn't understand all of those languages, but I guess I would understand the gist of that stuff. cuhulin |

If weather includes any quirks and vagaries of nature outside the realm of mankind's control then I guess earthquakes would have to figure into the mix. Plus the fact that this area is target rich with military installations which could lure some rogue nation on the Asian peninsula to take a shot. Add to that the high cost of living, and all the weird psychotic criminals that SoCal attracts, sure it's a great place to live. -- Operator Bob Echo Charlie 42 I know the Red's announcers are always happy to know they're going out to San Diego, they were the ones who mentioned how beautiful a place it is.
