  1. My mother just gave us all Ancestry tests for Easter.  It should be interesting.

    My 98 year old grandmother had hers done a few years ago, as  my cousin has been working on genealogy.

    My Aunt pulled me aside a couple of years ago and said she looked at it and my grandmother was some small percent bleck.  She didn't have the heart to tell her.:D

  2. It was great.  I loved Arnold saying how he was trying to pay for dinner, and Andre said no and picked him up like a kid and put him up on some piece of furniture like a doll.

     

    It brought back some great memories.  I had not thought about WWF since I was 16.  Rob Reiner and Billy Crystal were great.

    106 Beers.   20 Bottles of wine on set of The Princes Bride.. Crazy.  The mentioned he tried out for the Redskins as a gimick, and then showed him with Ali.  It would have been interesting to see him box, since his fist was the size of someones head.

     

    Oh his trademark lifting of the left leg and laying a 30 second fart.

     

  3. Oh, I have a couple of unused Amazon Music (like spotify,etc) accounts if someone wants one, Pm me.  I keep getting the Family plan for a little more a year, but only one of my nephews takes me up on it every year.  Free or if you want to throw 10 dollars in the Surly account for 7 more months.....

  4. I only have 1 viewer, me.

    I have an Unraid server with Plex on it and all my media (2K movies and 10K tv shows, etc).  I have a couple of Fire TV's with KODI on them

    I have Directv - $35/mo all channels from when they first started.

    Amazon,  Hulu every now and then(if you quit, or pause they offer you a better deal), Netflix(I give my friend Amazon, he gives me Netfilx).

    I currently stream most of what I watch on Kodi through the Placenta add on.  I was just wanting to watch the Andre the Giant movie, so I used I p t o r r e n t s.

    If anyone would like an invite to that PM me.  I have 3 to give.

     

     

  5. I immediately thought of the guy from Die Hard and Chet.

    I was a sophomore in HS when Die Hard came out.  The previews looked so bad ass, it made me read a book.  I couldn't put the book down.  I read it through all of my classes, with the Textbook covering me.

     This made me watch Die Hard again for the 100th time, non holiday.  

    Spoiler from the book:

     

    It is his daughter that he is saving and she dies in the end when he is hanging on to her if I remember right from the late 80's.

     

     

  6. I am a fan of all Clint Eastwood and Jimmy Stewart movies.

    I have all of them.  

     

    The best quote is at the beginning of Hang em High.

    Eastwood is swinging from a tree. A guy cuts him down, and says:

    "Some people call this Hell, but you are still in Oklahoma territory."

    I've always wanted to make a small video of that if anyone wants to tell me how.

     

     

     

  7. I have a 2/1  900 sqft Condo downtown built in 68 that I remodeled 10 years ago.  

    I have :

    Philips Hue Can lights.  I got an app, Hue Disco, that hears my music and changes my lights to the beat (novelty).  But, it is nice saying Alexa , lights 10 percent.

    For Xmas I got a cheap Ilife V5S vacuum and mop (all tile floors).  $150.  It does the job.  It is stupid.  it bangs into stuff , and moves on.  But it is better than me doing it, and it gets done.

    A Nest thermostat.  I've had that for a couple of years.  I bought it after I had a $190 September electric bill.  The next September it was $120.

    Alexa on the tv's and in the rooms.

     

    It  all makes my life easier.  Pretty basic.  

     

  8. Zhu Congpeng, from China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporate said: "We have been continuously monitoring Tiangong-1 and expect to allow it to fall within the first half of this year."

    "It will burn up on entering the atmosphere and the remaining wreckage will fall into a designated area of the sea, without endangering the surface."


    Might as well say that since they have a 70% chance of being right.
    And it says only one person has been hit by space debris. That has to be a cool thing to put on your resume.

  9. We are on DTVNow and really enjoy it. We got in on the $35 deal for 70 channels plus HBOgo and streaming is free on ATT wireless. But if any of those two conditions change, I would move to YoutubeTV as it is the smoothest and slickest of all the streaming services. 
    Same. Does anyone know how to get youtube tv on a fire tv?
