That's good oil, mate! Good onya. Le'me give 'er a right fix and she'll be apples! (Could I be any more Google-Australian?)

Wow! Those bring back some memories! Sing along, everybody! Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong Under the shade of a coolibah tree. And he sang as he watched and he waited 'til his billy boiled, "Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me?"

We used to train with night vision goggles in the Highwoods Mountains of central Montana, where it was very dark - outside! Nothing's creepier than knowing someone's right next to you, who can see you but you can't see them! It's just, eerie! BTW these were the kind that if you looked upward, you could see like 10x more stars than you could without them, and someone half a mile away, puffing on a cigarette, looks like he's shining a laser into your eyes! Incredible tech.

I wonder what "metal" of pass would include unlimited preferred parking, and how much it would cost. Just a thought.

And the aroma would so richly fill the air about them! One could almost taste the oregano! Mmmmm... Dang it, where'd I put that blasted flux capacitor!? ...so I .... can go back.... in .... time... and .... eat... the .... oh, you get it.

^I really actually like that idea!

That's how Eagle Scouts are made.

I was picturing really lousy tents, rain, spoiled food...

All you need to do is put on some Australian music in your music player, and have science come up with these babies right here: - Tb, who also misses the theme.

Oh, yes! I miss the days of running a barrel hoop along with a stick! Hey, this generation needs to discover the joys of the buzzing, electric football game! (Spending hours on rainy November days, positioning little punch-out players on plastic footers, only to switch on the game and watch both lines run in opposite, diagonal directions! Most fun I had until Tecmo Bowl!)

Now, where'd I put that cookie cutter?

^ Quite enviable, I must say. -Tb, who respects and admires the experienced and the wise.

The 90s were my college years, so there are a lot of memories from both decades for me. I wonder what the, um... zeroes? ...aughts? ...Two-thousands? I'm having trouble coming up with a defining set of cultural icons for that era. Maybe 'Hannah Montana, Spongebob, Eminem, Destiny's Child, Baby G Swatches, MySpace? Yeah, but a 90's store would quite nicely rock.

If my senses are to be trusted, I'd probably start getting ready for Friends, Seinfeld and Buffy the Vampire Slayer shirts; Boys II Men, Third-Eye Blind, Shania Twain and Nirvana music; Pogs, Tamagotchi and Furbys; and a Mortal Kombat machine, because the bulldozer of time is quickly pushing into a new generation of nostalgia. Disclaimer: I'm just a fan. I haven't heard anything; I just have a feeling, that's all.

My internet access keeps shutting down when I click that link.

Whew! I was worried all the trees were going to be chopped down; looks like they'll preserve the aesthetic beauty of the area pretty much.

"Surge," "Plunge," whatever.

Is that a real jingle? It's catchy!

...a giant, orange disco ball!

It actually was a very good interview - I hope they air it!

To quote the Electric Light Orchestra, "Insufficient data coming through..."

Awesome! Did your radio interview get aired as well? (I haven't had a chance to listen to 700 WLW yet)...

Looking at that ride, I can say 'totally tubular,' and really mean it this time! That's going to be breathtaking! Love it.
