Didn't Cincinnatus get a second run...

Meanwhile, as every forum member knows but most of the UK population seem not to, a recent reference to another roman leader cincinnatus has missed the point that the hot political issue of the time was the plebian classes complaining about "one rule for the rich....".  Now did BJ know?  He did do classics but he was never hot on detail.

How many Lightbulbs does it take to replace a Lightbulb?
ONE EVERY SIX MONTHS.

Note: The OLD incandescent lightbulbs outside front and back lasted 30+ years!

I miss those lightbulbs  . And plastic straws. Progress, eh?

Old light bulbs would at least give out some heat.
Don't even get a newspaper to stuff in your clothes for extra insulation.


Winter is coming.


Have you noticed how flip-phones are making a comeback?
