CarlKnittel I have to agree here and add a little bit. I believe one of the worst things we did to our education system was dropping shop classes. They aren't completely extinct yet but they are heading there and schools are steering students away from such pursuits more...

CarlKnittel I know that feeling. Most of my "toys" are grown up but one of my favorites is my 75th anniversary edition Red Ryder BB gun. No, I did not shoot my eye out. But I did buy it for myself for Christmas several years ago.

CarlKnittel America can have a rough time recapturing the chemistry and comedy of a lot of British shows but crime dramas and Sci-Fi are hard not to improve on. Police dramas have been the stock and trade of American Television from the beginning and the BBC has never...

CarlKnittel I still don't know about that. I guess you could check the survivlr fan sights for her real name and then compare it to the cast list on the ABC site for Life on Mars

CarlKnittel I can see that working. Aside from the stories you can think of between horses themselves I suppose it's like playing with toy cars and imagining the drivers. Of course with all the horse stories out there it the horses can easily replace people in our...

CarlKnittel History shows us that a number of religions have tried to use force to convert others. Radical Islam is doing so almost daily with acts of terrorism. Think of it like a contract. Would you trust a person to fulfill his end of a contract when he signs it at...

CarlKnittel Hearing the music that was top of the charts when I was in High school is now on the oldies station is annoying to say the least. On the other hand, the book of Proverbs can make you feel a lot better about aging. It points out all the glories of age and...

CarlKnittel I keep telling her, with all the aches and pains and problems I think I might be older than her. Of course I'm mentally quite young unless I think about all the little kids I remember that now have teenagers of their own.

CarlKnittel NO! I didn't notice you getting older! I wouldn't notice you getting older! I couldn't notice you getting older! I'm smart enough to never notice you getting older! No seriously... I like living.
