eld, no joke. I just watched an old movie, Dial 1119, from 1950 that was ahead of its time for sure. Dialing 911 for emergency didn't come out until almost 20 years later and they had a flat screen TV in the corner over the bar which wouldn't be available for another almost 50 years!

When ALL you can think about is yourcats...and you went shopping for a bathtub!

Re: Complimentary bread. Once, in Germany, there was a charge on our bill for bread. We hadn't eaten any from the basket on our table, but we were charged because we had not told the waiter to remove it when we sat down. (This was a very long time after WWII.)

One of our Westies, Pip, would run growling from the small TV on a cabinet to the one a foot off the floor in another room when we needed protection from something on the screen. (We needed protection from horses and men with beards.)
