I watch both the History Channel/Discovery Channel/PBS and cartoons, Factor.
So, I suppose I'm a well-rounded individual.

I don't see what's so scary about that, Factor?
I mean, would you prefer he was watching Spike TV?

Thank you so much, marieclaire.
I'm not sure. Probably has something to do with not getting enough sleep.

I think you've also outdone yourself in making cryptic, thinly veiled references to our personal relationship, Bandana.

Thank you, A + B ...
Btw, how come you guys have suddenly stopped mentioning which one of you is speaking?
It gives your comments a slightly creepy "Glenn or Glennda" type feel.

Talion, I suspect I might particularly miss the upcoming games "Kingdom Hearts 2" and "Marvel: Ultimate Alliance".

I think you should make up stuff about your family to write...
Give them all personalities...maybe Vegetable Personality...Your mom's a Kumquat, your brother's a radish, etc.

I would still be in France... the most powerful country in the world.
I'd probably be a poor peasant stuck in the mud. How do you dream up such things??? what do they feed you in America? My brain is teased by your whacky stories. keep them rolling.

It couldn't be a defense mechanism......
If so, France would be the strongest country in Europe.........

I would miss deodorant and toothpaste much more than TV, especially when interacting with my fellow citizens. Video games, however, are another story.

I think the worst thing would be having no air conditioning.
and then no television, and then no me and you. Oh, one more, and having to live with bad body odor all the time.

Mademoiselle, I don't know anything about sports and I didn't even know that football existed during the Viking era. The Gary Larson I refer to authored the Far Side cartoon series. MoonSpirit

Moon, is Gary Larson that guy who used to play quarterback for the Vikings?
The one with the "bowl haircut"?
Cause if so, I hardly see the comparison.
