    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    My father was optimistic and had faith in progress. We'd watch The Jetsons together when I was a kid and he didn't laugh at me when I said I that I wanted to be the boy in the series (can't remember what he was called but funnily enough I remember that their robot (depicted above in an earlier...

    (KNIVES) Let's see some sharp pointy objects

    My old 1970s Ulster BSA pocket knife. Pretty beat up and missing its shackle at the end but, man, that knife and I had some adventures.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Yeah, tell me about it! I spent my childhood going over the rosy future as forecast in the pages of Dad's National Geographic Magazine and thinking what a great future I was going to have. Still waiting for all those vacations to the moon that I was going to take or racing down a futuristic...

    (KNIVES) Let's see some sharp pointy objects

    Doesn't look like a knife, Zombie or otherwise. Looks more like a Parang or Bolo machete used for clearing thick undergrowth. The US military used something similar as a direct result of having these machetes used against them in the Spanish - American War.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I first saw the film Things to Come in the late 1980s and did like the special effects (the fleet of huge airships, for example, always reminded me of the old Flash Gordon serials) though the film's message was a bit airy - fairy for me. But on every reviewing of the film since I am always...

    Oh, we do get the occasional sunshine here. Loch Ness on an August afternoon, looking south down the lake.

    Well, Loch Ness is about 6 miles from Inverness. I have taken photos of the Loch (Gaelic for 'lake') but I tend to avoid going there much as, though beautiful, it is a major tourist trap with bus loads of folk visiting every day. As to Nessie? All I can say is that the lake is home to much...

    Thank you. That location is a bit like the center of a bowl, with the higher mountains of the Highlands acting as the rim. I thus know that when it has snowed at higher levels I am certain to find the surrounding peaks white while the lower levels are free from snow (even though that location...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Watched Rambo: First Blood (1982) again, the only Rambo film actually worth watching if one is frank. Sylvester Stallone is a sympathetic character in this film as a Vietnam SF vet and Brian Dennehy does a good job as the Sheriff just doing his job. It basically is a modern day twist to the old...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Nice Cooper jacket, Michael. That collar looks warm and the jacket goes well with that army sweater. Goes to show, you don't need a fancy and expensive leather jacket to look good.

    The wrist watch.

    I think that some of the comments above reflect the reason many people buy expensive watches, namely that they can afford to do so. It isn't about the watch itself as much as the public statement of having the money to own one or more. For me, I could not even afford a pre-used Omega or Rolex...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Hope you enjoy the movie. Keep an eye out for a funny moment right at the very end where Palance is crawling along a duckboard right on the waterfront and slips, ending up with his face getting a wash in Lake Borgne. Guess it was a little accident that they kept in the final movie.

    The wrist watch.

    Looks good. I have seen several (smaller) men wearing reduced sized female watches, so if you're happy with that, and they fit better, than why not.
