Thanks for the good wishes, Army Bro! I expect to have photos and possibly moving pictures of the happy occasion to share here. It all depends on how the outlaws behave - I will post nothing scandalous!

So sorry for the multiple posts - my benighted computer is playing games with me tonight.

It shall be scolded, chastised and punished!

I’m a sci-fi buff and also horror - - the old horror movies that left something to the imagination. These days, they make “gore-er” movies and I don’t care for those.

Crime drama is a fave for tv watching.
And I’ve gotten hooked on Code Black this season. It’s turned out to be a good show.

So, the big question.

Are you a fan of AMC's, "The Walking Dead"?

There's a big fan base for it here on FR.

I like it in the sense that I'm a prepper guy, preparing for the worst circumstances if they ever arise.

I have to admit I’ve never watched it. I figured it’s about zombies and I’ve never been a fan of them. Didn’t realize there was prepper stuff involved. Makes it sound more interesting.

Well prepper stuff in the sense that it's the end of society, so only the strong survive.

I like the old horror movies too....original "Night of the Living Dead", "Nightmare on Elm Street", "Halloween", etc.
