Hey there, hope you are well. I’m off to bed for the Whistler.

Night all.

I totally missed that series with William Conrad.

I see several references to Limbaugh and Wolfe on the web, often quoting his phrase "intelligence guided by experience".

I'm certain I've heard Rush cite Nero Wolfe on at least two occasions, the most recent being several years back now.

I'm barely online at the moment - I installed System Mechanic Pro on this PC, and it proceeded to destroy my boot record and called a system halt at boot up, so it's kept me busy since about 6 PM. I'm in the process of reinstalling everything and at the moment and I'm currently installing Win XP SP3, which is taking forever and a day. We have eight PC's in the house (seven live, and one HP dual core in the bull pen, waiting for me to add an extra 4 GB of memory and a sssssssmokin' new video card), but this is my favorite because it's in the bedroom, where I also have a 42' plasma screen, a 350 watt receiver/amplifier, Blu-ray player, and a Sirius/XM receiver, all networked together and cabled to our broadband Internet router. Plus, I keep a rifle in the closet (the Mosin-Nagant a.k.a. the Baltic flamethrower), and my Colt Navy in the cedar chest I'm leaning against. I have a separate 'guy' room with a rustic mountain cabin theme to it with lots of pine tree decorum, fishing portraits on the wall, bookshelves, a small log cabin incense burner, my fishing rack in the corner with eight poles in it, a craft/PC workbench along one wall, Thomas Kinkade country cabin window curtains, metal pine tree wall art, pine tree area rug, a rowboat-shaped lamp with tiers that hold functional lures and has an oilskin shade with a 360 degree mural of fishing in a country lake (which bears an eerie resemblance to the back side of Lake Koon, PA, where my grandfather first taught me to fish at the age of three), a lighted pine tree in one corner........you get the idea. I have a custom built PC named Frankenstein in there (named so due to my insistence that I add so much custom blue neon tubing, blue backlit LCD displays, blue plasma internal lighting, all in a black case, it looks like a piece of equipment in Victor Frankenstein's lab. Even the chrome fan and case bolts have built-in blue LCD's - my dogs will not get near this thing. They consider it evil on some sort of primal level.) Yet next to it, my trusty old laptop sits there, always running, with a well-designed Christmas theme running on it 365 days a year. I have a beautiful wallpaper, I run the Holiday Lights app around the edge of the screen (Google it), and the speakers play everything from Bing Crosby to Burl Ives to Johnny Mathis to the Peanuts theme to Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Until the screensaver kicks in - a very realistic fireplace, complete with sound. But, I have gone off on a tangent again, as I do this time of night. Time to reboot and see what sort of new surprises await me when this box comes up.

That’s sad. You sound like nothing but bitter old men.

Actually this is beautiful, not sad at all. A glimpse of a better world than the current one. Sad, would be someone like you.

Also I could be younger than you and there are women on this thread.

So, go walk west until your hat floats.

Were you drunk when you wrote this in the middle of the night?

Or, maybe you took offense because you’re a young “musician”?

Either way, you can take a hike.

That’s an excellent run-down of your systems and guy room! I also have a log cabin incense burner. Those are neat-o!

I hope your boot-up went well, Viking.

“Were you drunk when you wrote this in the middle of the night?”

I don’t drink. Why do you ask?

“Or, maybe you took offense because you’re a young ‘musician’?”

Not a musician. Sorry.

“Either way, you can take a hike.”

If the weather was nicer today.

Let me say it in a way that is so clear you understand it.

You’re not welcome on this weekly thread.

“Let me say it in a way that is so clear you understand it.”

Child, please. You were the one who used schoolyard-level personal attacks on me, not the other way around.

“You’re not welcome on this weekly thread.”

Aren’t we testy? I never have started a thread and told X and Y people that they can’t post in it because I’m above that sort of thing.

Seriously though, people are laughing at you, not with you.

No. No one is laughing at us.

You are showing your ignorance in that you apparently did not understand the lighthearted nature of our conversation and stupidly injected yourself into it.

This is a weekly thread where a group of us gathers to appreciate the old time radio shows and talk with each other. If you are simply out to troll around for people to insult, you most certainly are not welcome here.

I did not. You attacked me far more than I attacked you. And they weren’t even good-quality insults.

“You are not welcome on this weekly thread.”

Proving that you are the immature troll, not me. As I said, I would not tell anyone “Don’t post in threads I made.” because I’m above that sort of pettiness.

I’m not even sure what exactly what we’re arguing about at this point.

*Yawn* Nothing new to say, just the same thing again. Just wave the white flag already and admit you lost.
