    Furthest you have travelled in a car?

    When we moved from New England to Texas, and stopped for about a day near Pittsburgh, we drove around 2100 miles. With a one year old in the van. Luckily we had a DVD player in front of him, so he watched a lot of movies on the road.

    What is the messiest room in your home?

    My wife's scrapbooking/craft room. We've lived in the house for a little less than a year now, and we still haven't put it together right. Some new shelves will be going up this week and that should help get the room the way that she wants it.

    Cold Gin by KISS. When I worked part time at a liquor store, the chorus of the live version was my ringer for anybody who worked there.

    What is the most annoying item in your home?

    The cuckoo clock. Even though I have gotten used to the sounds, it needs to be wound constantly! I am forever having to change the time because it wasn't wound in time.

    What's the biggest bullet you've ever dodged?

    We were staying at my Aunt's house in San Clemente. We went to Tijuana for the day. On our way back, some of us wanted to stop at McDonalds in San Ysidro. My mom didn't want it, we drove on and ate somewhere else. Got back to my Aunt's house, and they were thankful that we were okay. Turns out...

    Post storm Texans check-in

    Checking in from San Antonio here. My house never lost power, I must be on the same grid as a nearby hospital. Was without water for a couple of days. Luckily we found that losing water was a possibility, so we started filling our tubs, to use as toilet water, and before we could fully fill...

    It's The Muppet Show, with our very special guest... Disney Plus!

    I have always loved the Alice Cooper episode. My favorite is the Star Wars episode. But in reality, it's hard to recommend any particular episode. There are so many hidden gems in the various random skits out there. So I recommend all of them.

    Can we talk COVID symptoms?

    I had a few of the symptoms that built up over time. The way that you describe "taste" sounds like how I felt. I could still recognize flavors in food, but they were still wrong. Nothing tasted right.

    Before I got my own record player, in mid 1979, I owned a copy of the Star Wars story record.

WIth it...
