Yeah, Peter Thomas, the narrator, passed away at the age of 94 and had only
quit narrating not long before his death.

Yeah, Pat was one of our 'treasures.'

Yes, it was "Medical Detectives" when it was on another channel several
years ago. It also went by another name that escapes me.
 
Peter Thomas was asked once about his narration and he said as he would
be narrating he'd imagine himself there witnessing the crime. He was so
well known for his voice a few country-wide companies asked him to
narrate commercials for them.

But there are also lots of crimes that happened in the UK. Are we
talking about the same thing?

I've seen several of the episodes and yes, they were U.K. crimes.

Ok, same thing then. I like that show.

Doesn't that mean "Australian justice"? Everything else said Down-Under

Yes, they have to keep everything short so the flies don't have time
to come in.

What I find interesting is that some self-styled "experts" foist the
super-taster idea at you as a serious science. Then they create offices to
test if you are, tell you the results, and start making money out of thin
air. I'm starting to feel absolutely holistic about this. Quack, quack,
quack, quack, quack.

Who knows. I mean, when I read your political ideas, I can't help but
think you're a super-thinker.

I wish! I'm an ordinary cynic...well, maybe a super-cynic.

That's a noble idea and a major fault of socialism. Have you ever heard
of the "tragedy of the commons"? We are nearly all created anatomically
equal, but that's where it ends. Some do. Some don't.
As Napoleon the pig said, "All animals are equal, but some are more equal
than others ". I thought that was a clever turn of phrase when I was
fourteen, but Orwell was right.

It's an important achievement of western countries, except the US, and
it has nothing to do with socialism. Neither does affordable education
or affordable public transport. If we didn't get all those things in
our rich countries, we could just as well have lived in North Korea.
Or Zimbabwe. Or the US.

You have a generally warped view of the US. Come visit.

Can I come live at your house?
 
Lets face it, some of us need companionship. And I'm not the worst
and I love cats. I'm Covid-free as of 4 day ago (yeah!) and my wife
is getting out of prison after 26 years for killing my mistress on
June 27th 2004.
 
I'm a steal!

Just truthful. She took an instant disliking to me when she tried to police
the Ju-Ju comments and I wouldn't knuckle under her outrage. Sometimes I
think you could be her son with the fake outrage.
 
Bedtime and it's actually past my toddling off to dreamland.

Aidell's is available where I shop. Of course, their plant is right over
the hill. I'm glad you liked the andouille. I haven't cooked Cajun in
years, and that's what I use andouille for. Maybe it's time.
