| 41858 | Did you have Cable/Satellite as a child? | <blockquote rel="NLogan"><b>NLogan wrote :</b><br><i> <p>@Bluegrassbaby86 also a buddy of mine who also happens to be blind could play the piano fantastically well. When we were kids we played name that tune with him pounding them out on the keys. Categories were like movies, television, cartoons, and the hard category. The hard category were things like jingles from commercials or the local news. It was maddening because the jingles were so familiar but sometimes so hard to place for the more obscure commercials. </p> </i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote>I play the piano as well. I make my living as a pianist in restaurants or a busker when there is no restaurant. I'm going back to college this fall to study to be a music therapist. | bluegrassbaby86 | Jan 09, 2019 |  |
| 41857 | Watership Down | <div>I finished the series, and was pleased with it. It managed to capture most of what made the '78 animated version so special. I still prefer the older version, but for introducing this story to a new audience, it's perfect.</div><div><br></div><div>P.S. - I liked the little nod to author Richard Adams in the form of a nameplate on a street bench. Nice touch.<br></div> | Vaporman87 | Jan 08, 2019 | |
| 41856 | Did you have Cable/Satellite as a child? | <div>We did not. Not that I can remember well, anyway. We had it in Deerfield which we left when I was 3 or 4. When we moved to NJ, I had a lineup similar to NLogan. We were close enough to NYC that we could get OTA channels. When the World Trade Center was bombed in 93, the stations were all fuzzy for a while. After 2001 my parents couldn't get any channels at all. They have basic basic cable now because there is still no reception. I hate it. It's hard to navigate and cluttered with unavailable channels.<br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote rel="Mr Magic"><b>Mr Magic wrote :</b><br><i> <div>Cable.</div><div><br></div><div>I remember when I was a kid, we had a box that looked sorta like this.</div><div><br></div><div><img id="main-image" src="https://i.postimg.cc/SR45jwp3/maxresdefault.jpg" style="display:block;max-width:640px;" width="320" height="180"></div><div><br></div> </i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote><div>Are you kidding, I had a box like that in 2000. When I got my own apartment I decided I wanted to have cable. I had spent a year in a dorm watching Cartoon Network in the common area.I went about a year and a half before deciding it wasn't necessary. But I made sure to keep it through Halloween so I could tape a bunch of horror movies before letting it go.</div> | shakin steak | Jan 08, 2019 | |
| 41855 | Posting Youtube Videos. | <div>To make a clickable link, highlight the text that you want to be a link, click the "Insert Hyperlink" button (a few left from the "Embed Video" button) and paste the URL.</div><div><br></div><div>A workaround that you might be able to do, is to keep the embed code handy in a note or a text file, or simply remember the syntax. (All you need is the iframe attribute, and tell the source in quotes.)<br></div><div><br></div><div>It looks like this:</div><div><br></div><div><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Vihnr5dM3PM" </iframe></div><div><br></div><div>If you paste that in the "Embed Your Video code" field, it will work. Put in the youtube link of your choice. It has to be that format, though. Links with the shortened "youtu.be" domain won't do it.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><br> | shakin steak | Jan 08, 2019 | |

| 41852 | Mean Gene Okerlund died | I had read about this a few days ago. I consider it the first big loss of 2019. I feel privileged that we were able to get him to do something for one of the Christmas Specials. R.I.P.

| 41851 | Glass | I'm interested in this because I liked Unbreakable and Split. Hopefully it does a decent job of piecing the characters of those two films together.<br> | Vaporman87 | Jan 08, 2019 | |
