Notes:

In the U. S. we call old cars 'clunkers' many times. In the U. K. they say 'bangers'. Close, but no cigar. It is funny how close our sayings are. U. S. says 'hood', U. K. it is 'bonnet'. We are indeed separated by a common language.

The oldest dog according to the Guinness book is 20 years old. He resides in the U. K. somewhere. He is in relatively good health and is a mutt.

One of the podcasters said (from memory) "I have made excuses at the front of the last ten podcasts about how crazy things are. Tell you what. If things suddenly turn normal, I'll let you know." Sounds about right.

The Beatles have a huge box set that is a tiny USB apple. It looks like an apple because of Apple Records in the U. K.. Great. I wish they had made the USB drive look like a yellow submarine. That would have just made sense. You get movies and documentaries and documents and remastered music and blah blah blah. It costs more than the box set, but you get much more. All on a little USB drive. Still, I like the idea. it took the Beatles (Apple Records) a long time to get in to the digital age.
