I have been very busy lately. Thank you, I did get them. I put the package in my "memory bag," so when I do operating system testing I'll have them ready.

Misunderstandings can occur when you give shitty responses (pun intemtional.)

Did you mean:
I have things to do,
I have nothing to do, or
I have meaningless things to do?

I know the answer, but I'd like to hear yours.

Hahaha of course I meant you are actually busy doing things! Much more important things than laying in the bed watching Matlock re-runs

Commander, when you lay in bed and watch Matlock reruns, do you Google any applicable laws that pertain to the show? Just to make sure the writers are on their toes?

I watch Matlock about as often as I watch Hunter, i.e. not at all. Have you forgotten - or maybe I forgot to mention - that I do not have television?

If in your question above:
@on all change 'Matlock reruns' to 'YouTube videos' ¹
the answer is, 'yes, sometimes.'

I once wrote the producers of T. J. Hooker after seeing the show when it first ran that, in their episode where Hooker visits Tijuana to assist Mexican police in apprehending someone wanted in the U.S. that:
(1) When Hooker and a Mexican cop are interrogating a suspect in front of a theater in Tijuana, in the traffic moving behind them was an RTD bus. (RTD was the main bus company in Los Angeles and LA County.)
(2) The streets of Tijuana were fairly clean. (I've been to Tijuana, the streets are routinely filthy with dirt. I think they only clean the streets once every other February 29, if even that often.)

I believe I got a letter back, thanking me for my observations.

But I couldn't see the light, no, I couldn't see the light

When you're standing in the crossroads every highway looks the same
After a while you can recognize the signs
So if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time, next time."

You forgot to mention. I applaud your choice not to watch television!

Re: T.J. Hooker continuity letter.

Not even a signed photo from Shatner as a thank you? See how they are in L.A.

Wait. You are offended at being accused of watching Matlock, but admit to watching TJ Hooker?

I think we were all watching TJ Hooker for the same reason.
