> Hi Pete and dedicated followers of fashion,
WELL !!!! That lets me out ...I am certainly not in fashion
these days or in the past...But hi Warren, and those
braving the elements unknown out there ready to pounce
on those of us who are "persons of interest" ....
I better be.....ooooh my eagle is soaring.

And in the back of Warren's mind, with all the rest is
the realization that it in mostlikely a very expensive
antique now....worth quite a bit. <POP>

I remember the documentary they did on the Yamato...very
good, and pictures and whatever, and what a ship...would
fit right in today, and mostlikely copies made...and they
mention also somewhere how hard it was to sink it.
I noted on the bow, the Imperial Seal...

Yeah....lucky too for everyone, cuz of what his family
would have thought too. The Chinese suffered under
the Japanese. But you know, how they stereotype
everyone ....you are of this visage...so you are...
but you are not. But if they had drafted him
ou and Mr. Kappel woul have an ally...maybe?

I think the only show for war at the time battling the
Westerns on the tube was... Combat. Our family friend
DAvid Taylor, who was born in France...loved that show.
He would work his times around to coming to watch it.
There was also !2 Oclock High ...and Desert Rats in colour
but Combat in B&W was as real and easy to make as a playtime
thing.... mmmm I had a realistic looking Conferate naval
pistol...caps on the shells....so I used that and the
winchester until the caps ran out...then the sound effects
came into play. Nowadays....I think of caps running
out and misfire and guns jamming, and it was an event
that happened.
Oh..yeah...that Rambo was you...hahahaha

Well ..when I showed it to her, I also mentioned I would
try with her directions to fix it up. I mentioned the
thought ...so she does thank you very much for remembering
her, and getting it for her.
As the large Latino PR there....yeah...and well our closest
is Toronto where we are going in a few days for BRAZIL DAY
which also is in London UK and New York and other places...
and mmmm mmmm yes those mornings and days and evenings
close to the beach.....aaah ...mmmm well.... better quit.
