1. "Ripper Street" for me all day and into the night. Could care less about him. n/t

[PatSeg]

3. How do you like Ripper Street?

I watched it awhile back and really enjoyed it.

[SheilaAnn]

4. Oh, me too, am loving it. A little hard to understand the dialogue now and then but overall, well

cast and good story lines.

[BobTheSubgenius]

7. I've not heard of it, but it sounds worth checking out.

Sounds like it's on Netflix, but not necessarily Canadian Netflix.

10. I am deafish and watch TV with closed captioning on. It really helps with British imports.

[SheilaAnn]

11. I keep forgetting to do that, thank you. n/t

[PatSeg]

15. The first season was kind of

all over the place, but after that the story started coming together. I love Matthew MacFadyen and can watch him in almost anything.

I usually turn on closed captions, especially for British or Irish shows. Also I am hard of hearing.

So now you're SheilaAnn, no more Monmouth!

[SheilaAnn]

16. Sheila is my actual name and much to my surprise not many people knew Monmouth or what

it referred to so I let it go.

[PatSeg]

17. I remember Monmouth from quite some time ago

Its one of the names that kind of stuck with me. SheilaAnn will be very easy to remember though. Glad I noticed you were formerly Monmouth4!

[SheilaAnn]

18. Thanks PagSeg, Monmouth of course referred to the Battle of Monmouth (My hometown of Freehold, NJ)

and of course Bruce..

[PatSeg]

19. Ah, I thought it was the university

I remember way back before it was "4"!

[SheilaAnn]

21. Not being very techy, the "4" indicated how many times I had to sign in while still trying to keep

my previous post count. I finally caught on...LOL.

[PatSeg]

22. Oh, I'd thought maybe you'd left DU

and come back four times over the years.

Did it work? Were you able to keep your post count?

[SheilaAnn]

23. Unfortunately no. I would be over 20,000 by now, been here a while. n/t

[PatSeg]

25. That's what I thought

I remember you hanging out with me and Piranha back in the early days of DU.

[SheilaAnn]

26. The good ole days, right? n/t

[PatSeg]

27. I'm still in touch with her

and few others from back then on Facebook. A few quit coming to DU, but we have our own private group on Facebook for political as well as private interactions. I believe Piranha was the first DUer that I got to know well, probably during the 2004 primaries. I think I got to know you at that time.

[SheilaAnn]

28. I turned 80 last July so memory is a sketchy thing with me. I do recall that primary though and

most likely that is when we connected. Glad we did!

[PatSeg]

29. Oh, a lot of it is really sketchy to me as well

I try to remember some of the DU names of people I knew back then, but without seeing them on a regular basis, it just slips away like so many things. I just figure that at our age, our memory banks get full and we can only retain so much information. I sure did spend an awful lot of time at DU back then though.

[SheilaAnn]

30. I still do, beats dusting or mopping..LOL.

[PatSeg]

32. Oh yeah

The dust just keeps coming back and clean floors are highly overrated. Besides at this point in my life, I have to conserve whatever energy I can. I spent too many years worrying about trivial things and in retrospect it seems rather unimportant.

[SheilaAnn]

33. You speak the truth..n/t

[LakeArenal]

2. Which one of the many folks that suck up the oxygen and the carbon dioxide.

Anyway... never heard of him.

[Wounded Bear]

5. Indeed! nt

[birdographer]

6. I had thought he was gone

but NOOOOOO, he's still here. Very frustrating that otherwise entertaining nighttime hosts, particularly Kimmel, continue to dwell on him in monologues. They need to watch some of their openings circa 2012 to see what they talked about before him. Just think how much of this would go away if he simply ceased to exist. I know, useless wishful thinking.

[KT2000]

8. his sycophants have learned

how to take over the news cycle. If it isn't trump it will be cruz, hawley, or the others who are clinging to his coattails. This will be the norm for years to come until we ignore them and the media does as well. All they have to offer is outrageous behavior - think 4 year old - that will be topic one for the talking heads. The destruction will continue.

[Roc2020]

9. I'm not even watching

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

13. Neither am I!

I wouldn't give Trump 5 cents or 5 seconds of my time.

[Warpy]

12. I'm giving him all the attention he and his -post riot party deserve

TNT has a Star Wars marathon going. Aging movies I've seen dozens of times are a lot more interesting and a hell of a lot more relevant than anything that bunch has to say. Even the transparent Nazi symbolism is passé.

[barbtries]

14. who you talking about?

yeah. the most i'm consuming consists of reading OP titles on DU.

[Blue Owl]

20. K&R

[lagomorph777]

24. Who?
