I always feel like it is pretty easy to match up the three major American auto brands with their broadcast twins. In other words Ford=CBS, Chevy=NBC, Dodge=ABC.

Actress Hedy Lamarr was a tinkerer and inventor, including patenting frequency hopping:
"People thought she was way too dazzlingly beautiful to have come up with some brilliant idea," Dean said. That brilliant idea was called frequency hopping: a way of jumping around on radio frequencies in order to avoid a third party jamming your signal. Lamarr invented it in the 1940s for use as a secret wartime communication system that could keep the enemy from interfering with a ship's torpedoes. She got a patent for it in August 1942, and then donated it to the U.S. military to help fight the Nazis.

"When she gave it to them, [the Navy] said, 'What do you want to do, put a player piano inside a torpedo? Get out of here!' And so they didn't use it during the Second World War. It was after the Second World War that it emerged as a way of secretly communicating on all the gadgets that we use today," Dean explained.

It's amazing how much FHCMT looks like Richard Burton. Also, "The Spy Who Came in from the Cold" is just excellent.

:lol:

I'd be able to pull over without an issue. My wife and sisters would wind up scrambling to the back of the car while in motion.

If that happened to me, I would not be able to tell anyone about it, because I'd be dead.

I am confused by #6 "Kid's party." Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but it appears correct.

My SIL took her dogs for Santa pictures instead of the kids (who were likely relieved), lol:

That Akita is still under 2 years old and absolutely massive. Nicest dog I’ve ever been around, too.
