You know what really bothers me...

It's those neat ripper beams dissappearing from latest-list just because you've got incinerator beams.

We can hardly expect some one from CHEESE to know who Andy Rooney is.

Narf, he has a small segment on a decades old weekly national news show in the US called 60 minutes.

He does an insightfull essays on some ordinary stuff. Some would call a whine and moan session.

I thought I had a comment to make here, but on inspection there seems to be little need.

I wouldn't know, I have very little use for them.

The name did ring a bell, but I don't generally watch news shows. If I want to inflict the news on myself, the newspaper is much more compact.

I don't think I've seen an Andy Rooney segment in a decade. Between my various work schedules from my part-time security gig and now with my son, I haven't seen 60 minutes in quite a long time. I don't really like watching the news shows like this anyway. There used to be a time when I did, but like with most things that come when you get older, you lose interest in certain things or gain interest in other things.

Is that a serious question?

Oh, BTW I got a good laugh out of your comment Wardad.
