Ah, yes. The Burglar from Banffff-ffffff. :D

Don't get it. Get your draws to wear the pants they fit. Love is never to say you are sorry, It just tells the way you been and the tomorrow it will become.

Well then, play this for your kids (family safe). Your kids don't know what they're missing. There was some good comedy out there on tv once upon a time.

A fastball, right down the pipe. :D :wink:

Hmmm. Been to Banff many times, but never heard of this burgler before. But then our tv was limited back then. As kids we mostly played outside - that would be a deprived childhood by today's standards. :wink:

Actually, we didn't really spend that much time in front of the toob, and there were a few years when the big, metal box, black and white, knobs on the side, boob toob died for the last time (no amount of new vacuum tubes could save it - needed a new picture tube) and we went with no tv. I think the parents got tired of seven of us with nothing to do in cold weather but make a ruckus, so a new one (still vacuum tube) showed up. This was the 60's. TV after homework, of course. Or during, if they didn't catch us sneaking a look at Perry Mason or Jackie Gleason when we were supposed to be doing something productive. :P
