Anyone checking out SIX on History Channel? It premieres tonight. I'm out of town but am recording it to watch when I get home.

The trailers don't much enthuse me. But I've quit watching TV lately, anyhow.

I probably won't. For some reason shows like this don't appeal to me very much.  =|

Back in my day, when we wanted to post a photo on the internet, we went out with our iPhones, and took the photo ourselves. Lazy young-uns... :old:

Back in my day, we had to use steam powered cell phones to take those pictures that we posted on the coal powered Internet.

And we could only get one photo per phone, since Apple didn't provide for interchangeable plates.

Watched a bit of it but dozed off. Seamed good to start. I like the main character, I forget his real name he was Shane in The Shield.
Walton Goggins after a little google Fu.

Is it true that it's a requirement of SEALs to sign a book deal and be negotiating a movie deal in order to graduate from BUD/S ??




(America's "Silent Professionals" do seem to scream "LOOK AT ME/US" quite a bit..)

And I had to watch TV by candle light as I did my homework using charcoal on the back of a shovel.

As for the TV show itself . . . they'd improve it by dropping the goofy parts of the "drama" away from the field.

Okay fistful, I took your advice. Sorry it took so long, but I had to take the picture, get the film developed, scan the photo, then put it in an envelope and mail it to flkr and wait for them to post it on their website.  =D

Back in my day, If you were a stick in the mud, we would put poop in a paper bag, light it on fire on your front porch, ring your bell and laugh at you from across the street for stomping a flaming bag of poop.

That is a board not a stick.  Looks like a 1x2.   :police:

Did you think you could just phone it in?  Give it a half-assed attempt?  This is SPARTA APS!

First episode was decent, worth catching again to see how it pans out.
