It'll start at 8pm cst. Part of this episode will focus on the TransAtlantic flight of the Navy's NC-4. Maybe an interesting break from the Olympics.

S: Took hammer away from midget.

Your welcome 5151, there was some good stuff there. I rarely miss History's M every Monday...always something
of interest, if not all subjects in the episode, then at least 1 or 2.

Dunno if I agree with you, "watching paint dry would better than the Olympics.." What, about babalicious lady
gymnasts, swimmers, divers, runners, and volleyball players is not to like? 8)

My landlord committed a major faux pax, in my eyes anyway. I asked him if he was watching the Olympics. He
said, "Naw, I got bored...there's some guy swimmer who's winning a bunch'a medals." :shock: What a maroon! :?

Have got to admit however.........

That program on the NC-4 was outstanding.

This is a really huge bird.

Gives you another sense of respect for the guys whom flew her.

Yo NUTZ...my man...you need to get out more. All these ladies look like 12 year old, undernourished boys.

You want to see some fine lookin' ladies, check out the women's softball teams. On that note, this is the last year they're gonna' have softball as an Olympic sport. They're keeping Badminton :crispy: and doing away with softball. That sucks. :finga:

Mudge the astonished :shock:
