The "non-paying" cable TV (well technically we're still paying, we're just not paying enough, I guess) are properly censored. No "f" word, no nudity, no this, no that. <br /><br />So I guess if you're paying an extra $?? to see showtime or HBO, you are allowed the "privilege" of hearing the F word but if you're not paying, it becomes taboo? I never got the rationale behind that. <br /><br />F the cable company, anyway! <br />(just had to throw that one in there ;)Tomate Farciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12102741033638005250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-59146552779573085892011-03-22T19:37:59.372+01:002011-03-22T19:37:59.372+01:00^ Anon, you are so right and couldn't agree mo...^ Anon, you are so right and couldn't agree more.

I think the exhibit will be fascinating to you, Eric. <br />This is so funny to see your wrote Oldsmobiles and struck it out, because over the last weekend my husband found a 1989 Olds for sale in our local paper. He wanted to go see it and he talked about it ALL weekend! (We did not see it and won't be purchasing it.) I absolutely love old cars, but the days of owning one to drive are over - they are environmentally and financially not such a good idea. I had a 1956 Ford in the 1980s that I loved so much. It was robin's egg blue and I named it Buster. A great memory!Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135393270656573516noreply@blogger.com
