I just found a couple of stations my cable company added w/o telling us. Two of them are old shows. I found the show Hazel. It was something my family watched when I was quite young. Now it's one of the stupidest shows of recent memory, but I still found it to be hysterical just for the memories. Also I lived in Germany when MASH and All in the Family made their debuts. When anyone went to the states or was new from the states, all they could talk about were these amazing programs that changed the way we look at comedy into not just laughter, but they also made us think. I'm pretty sure I saw all the All in the Family episodes on a variety of channels, and I know I've seen all the MASH episodes, but those, no matter how many times I watch them, make me smile. We saw the MASH movie when we were on vacation in Zurich. It was in its original English form, but the French subtitles covered half the screen and the German subtitles the other half. Better than Germany. They dubbed everything. We saw the movie Woodstock, and there would be someone on the screen, obviously screaming about something, and whatever these wound up people said came out in monosyllabic, put me to sleep already, sound. Some things just don't translate. Anyone who needs a really good laugh, google 'who's on first' and click on the original video or something w/ those words. I could watch that 100 times a day and I'd laugh at it every time. Sylvia 'I didn't have time to write a short [post].' Mark Twain wrote that one for me. LOL

NOTE: I can't imagine anyone is surprised that distracted driving has overtaken drunk driving as the number one cause of death on the road. Please, y'all, keep your eyes sharp when you drive. The guy in the next car could be on a computer in the dash board (whoever dreamed that up should have to watch autopsies), while the one behind you is texting. It's important to be aware of those around you. The kid who ended my second to last life was in a huge SUV and on the telephone.
