  1. Thomas Andrews: "Mr. Lightoller! Why are the boats being launched half full? There, look! 20 or so, in a boat built for 65? And I saw one boat with only twelve. Twelve!"

     

    Officer Lightoller: "Well, we weren't sure of the weight, Mr. Andrews, these boats may buckle."

     

    Thomas Andrews: "Rubbish! These boats were tested in Belfast with the weight of 70 men! Now fill these boats, Mr. Lightoller, for God's sake man!"

     

    Charles Lightoller: "Yes... Sir!"

    I was 19 when the show came out (born 7 days after Bo) so don't have any childhood memories of it. Well, sorta.....I'm still a child so I guess you could say I'm still making Dukes memories. Often when I'm running around on my dirt bike on dirt roads I imagine I'm in the middle of a Hazzard County adventure. 

    I wasn't born until '87. They left the air in '85. I discovered them in '96 on The Nashville Network/The National Network TNN.

  3. I just saw the happiest thing on YouTube. A YouTube short called Titanic fans Dream about Jack and Rose having their happily ever after and they had 2 little Jacks and 1 little Rose. 😲 I wonder how that YouTube short Titanic Fans Dream was made? It's obviously A. I. Leo and Kate looked real but the children were probably A. I./CGI?

    Well done, Skipper. I also remembered the scene but not the episode. Watching the scene again, I remembered that it slightly annoyed me. When Boss reveals his string of dollar signs, every other one should be mirrored if they were cut out of a single piece of paper, but they all face the same way.

    Yeah. I never realized that before. 😆 Good eye HossC.

    A month ago, Dave Moore, the DJ on the morning radio show that I listen to, had a dream about writing and recording a Country Christmas song. He enlisted the vocal help of Clodagh Lawlor, one of Ireland's youngest award-winning Country Music stars who also presents a Country Music show on the same station. He revealed the song yesterday morning, and it's both fun and catchy.

    BTW. "Quality Street" refers to a box of candy, and a "Tayto multipack" refers to potato chips - both will be found in a lot of Irish homes at Christmas.

     

    I'm out of reactions... So 👍
