Hi all. Never heard of Space Patrol.

We’re suffering from severe server issues...

Yeah, it’s a pain in the neck, but if we keep “refreshing” or F5-ing, eventually the page comes up.

Evening. We have another fund raising show upon us. How time goes by.

It's 25f in Baltimore! Damn cold.

Hope you two had a good week. Steel, have you heard of space patrol?

Hi, Guys!

Our stream just died at the beginning of Dragnet. Don’t know what the deal is...

Got it back—just opened it in another browser (Chrome).

Don’t freeze, Vision!

Yeah. Space Patrol. I seem to vaguely recall an old TV program with Cadet Happy, too.

It's nice and chilly in Florida, too.

Hi vision. My previous post was supposed to be a response to you.

I confess I’m watching hockey just now as I ice my knee from my elliptical workout. Going ut to get a bite to eat, then I’ll be tuning in to Big Broadcast.

Had the tibia plateau fracture which ended my nearly daily jogging ritual. Icing the knee now after a workout really does reduce swelling and tenderness.

Bless your heart! Or, your leg, rather! Jogging is super hard on the knees, ankles and feet.

I used to jog, used to be in a beer-drinking running club, in fact. In the “old days”...

The fracture was an accident, I guess? How did you break it?
