Radio was TV before TV was TV. We have a "Old Time Radio" show on Saturday nights. It has shows like Gracie Allen & George Burns, Green Hornet, etc. You have to use your imagination to "see" what is happening in the show. When I was young I had a crystal radio which I constructed from a kit and used to listen to it at night when the radio stations increased their power.
I think that we are missing something when we watch TV and everything is there in front of us with very little left to our imagination.

I haven't been blogging for a while. I think of subjects when I'm walking the dog but forget by the time I get to the computer. It looks like my kids have blog entries most days, ah, the advantages of youth (& beer brewing or young kids).

The bicycle is just as good company as most husbands and, when it gets old and shabby, a woman can dispose of it and get a new one without shocking the entire community.- Ann Strong
