Grateful Thread dead?
I think I just actually manged to kill the thread.
I think I just had a "near body" experience...
My body is going to bed
My Body is over the ocean
My Body is over the sea
My Body is over the ocean
Oh, bring back my Body to me
Sorry about the duplicate above
...at least it's not Mock Swedish.

...I usually just have an achy body experience
If you are bored and want to have some stupid fun, write something and put it into Google translate, then translate it back and forth several times through a variety of different languages...
Here's an excerpt from something I wrote a while ago and copied, then translated back and forth...
Original-
"True bravery is not forged in a heart that knows no fear, it is found in the heart of one who has summoned the courage to overcome that which they fear and still face with determination that tempest of doubt and uncertainty, all the while knowing that which stands before them, yet never wavering and never giving in... It is in that moment of resolution that even the gentlest soul can summon the heart of a lion."
End result-
"Brave rabbits do not sleep in fearless hearts. To control this beauty, only the feet of the liver need the heart. He knew it, but he could not be blamed for his shy pillow. A soft heart and a lion in the air can cry out in distress after a broken wind."
Wow.
Its also lots of fun to do that with lyrics... songs take on new meaning.
Some lyrics from Journey's "Don't Stop Believin" ...
Original-
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere...
End result-
He was the only girl in town
Alive in an empty world
He stayed in the middle of the train for the night
I was still a kid on the big city train at night
He was found growing up south of Detroit
Walking behind the trains in the middle of the night
Not quite as weird... but sorta funny.

...yeah back in the day we kids were the "remote" for our parents. I remember having to turn on teh old colour Zenith several minutes before what we wanted to watch to let it warm up (all tubes back then) and then have to adjust the colour so people weren't too green or orange. It was a big Archie Bunker" television in a wood case with a "massive" for the day, 21" diagonal screen (that was still pretty rounded on the edges). In Milwaukee we had five channels, the three main networks, an independent UHF channel, and the Educational Channel. The only "cable" input was to the aerial. Every time an aeroplane flew overhead (we lived close to the airport) the picture would waiver for a few moments.
I still remember many programmes being in B&W before colour television became big. Each network had it's own announcement for programmes that were in colour. NBC's Peacock is still the most iconic and remembered of them all,.
The old Zenith:
Ooh, ooh, I love those old round 21" color TVs of the '60s. Real machines in real wood cabinets. Takes a team of men to move one. Bazillions of knobs on the back. Many more Kvolts on the inside to kill you with too. Geek heaven.
One thing they missed out on in the design is that no one ever put a griddle on the top for cooking eggs in the morning. But you could use one for backup room heating. Five hundred watts of glowing filaments, and unlike a computer, there was no "idle" state to lower the power draw. Once you turned it on, all 500w began radiating all day long. Back in those days, the electric meter on a house was enclosed in a glass bubble so that the little rotating thing wouldn't fly away when you turned on an appliance.
(Do kids these days even know what an analog electric meter with the four dials that are read in alternating clockwise/anticlockwise directions looks like?) Ah, for the good old days. When leaving the house I'd have to remember to grab a club before leaving the cave.
We never had a "roundie" in our home before I left for college. And by time my parents finally bought a color TV it was the new modern square corner type. However, I did read up on them and I even had a copy of the Heathkit color TV kit manual explaining the theory and assembly of their first color TV kit. I tried to converge the neighbor's color TV for them. I did OK, but I never volunteered for that again. Modern kids should be thankful that they never have to worry about electron beam convergence these days. LED pixels, a much better idea.
Regarding the photo of the "roundie" color TV above. What's that yellowish stain around the edge of the picture tube? Nicotine glaze? A persistent reality during the middle 20th century.
...well the file I found it in says it is (or was) in Milwaukee WI so I wonder if it actualy isn't the one we had (the refelction of the antenna on the glass top [which we also had] looks the same) as my mum was a heavy smoker.
I prefer these things called baby carrots as they usually are sold a pound a dollar here. The only thing I noticed is that these tasty things only come in one flavour.
