  1. I was born in 1963 and it was running during my childhood. My older brothers would watch it and I would hide behind the sofa. It was on at around 6pm on a Saturday - an institution. I remember Pertwee and Troughton, as well as a flashback episode with a very old Hartnell.

    I grew up watching it too in the 70's. It was on PBS right before Monty Python's Flying Circus. :D I never missed MP so I watched Dr. Who quite a bit as well. I always loved the theme song. :)

  2. I'm with you on the music. Sometimes our neighbor plays some current stuff that I actually enjoy, but lately there has been a great deal of Stevie Nicks coming over the fence. After about 2 hours of that, listening while the kids play in the pool, I just can't take anymore. I mean, there is only so much edgy anger and angst a girl can take while simultaneously melting in 110 degree weather. :lol:

    :lol::lol::lol:

     

    But, honestly, I am far more bothered by his smoking. I swim laps for exercise now and it is a special kind of disgusting to come up for a good deep breath of air only to instantly realize that the neighbor is out smoking. Cough. Sputter. Cough. :glare: No matter the weather, we seem to always be downwind.

    :grouphug: Oh I'm sorry you can't get a clean breath of air. My neighbors smoke too and I can smell it wafting over to my house, but they smoke *ahem* a different kind of cigarette. ;)

  3. So what does he play? I want to know if I listen to it! Is it the Santana Youtubes I sent you?

     

    No, I like Santana. hehehe Like I said, there are lots of types of music that I will listen to. He plays this stuff, it's kinda like techno, but not really. It's like the worst techno ever and it like cuts in and out so it sounds like his speakers are screwy and the beat is just all screwy and it's just irritating as can be!

  4. Neighbors who picked up their dog's poop. We are in a rented townhouse/apartment and the next door neighbors let their dog poop all.over. the common area grass in front of our place. And they leave it there. :glare: It's disgusting, and my kids can't play there. For a week I would go out every other day, collect all the poop from the grass, and put it in a pile on the edge of the walkway. They got the hint...for a while. But it's back to being nasty and unhealthy.

     

    :grouphug: Ewww. I hate that too. If people own dogs, they need to be responsible for them and pick up their poo and keep them on a leash when they're out in the neighborhood.

  5. We live across from a DJ. I swear some days it's as bad as fraternity row!

     

    I don't really mind that they like to have parties every weekend. They obviously are very social people and they have really expanded their backyard area over the years adding a pool, then a slide to the pool, then a fountain in the pool, and a chickee. I don't mind that at all, it's just the music they play is AWFUL. I will listen to all kinds of stuff, but they guy has an uncanny knack for finding the worst "music" every made and blasts it to the world. :001_huh: Maybe I should go over with my old record collection and school him. :p hehehehe

  6. And following the very trendy MrsBasil we have Shukriyya who is wearing a lovely A-line teal skirt of hemp and spandex with a soft, perfect drape. Lest Jane Fonda exercise videos momentarily screech into view at the mention of spandex rest assured, fashionistas, that spandex and hemp are the new cotton. A long-sleeved Lands End t-shirt in a paler shade of teal with a subtle scooped neck adds a monochromatic touch to the outfit pulling it together in a confident way while at the same time brilliantly invoking the wilds of suburbia. Legs are bare with a slight stubble enlivening the look and lending a sense of bold realism to the scene. The oversized coatsweater in dark spruce with original pilling and holes rounds things out nicely with its unmistakable announcement of a laissez-faire attitude on the part of the wearer.

  7. Yes!

    The first doctor has one the best faces in history.

    The second doctor works so fantastically with two of his companions.

    The third doctor bickers so enjoyably with the Brigadier (who you may develop a crush on.)

    The fourth doctor has a glint in his eye that belongs in an eye glint hall of fame and travels with my favourite companion...

     

    So yes. It is!

  8. Okay Jean I have one for you that dd told me the other day....

     

    A man goes to his doctor and says, "Doctor can you help me? Every morning I have silent expulsions of gas. I have silent expulsions of gas every afternoon and evening too. I sometimes have silent expulsions of gas at random times as well--like right now. I don't know what to do."

     

    The doctor answers the man, "I can help you. First, let's get your hearing checked......"
