You mean something like Trump is a great businessman and will make the US the greatest nation on earth? Wink

I believe David Icke thinks it was a documentary LOL

I remember taping this on my folks original top loader VCR when it was broadcast. I think I still have the tape in a storage bin somewhere.

In the 80s I was young and thus saw The Young Ones (I even had a Neil "heavy sh*t" t-shirt):

That Apple advert was great! I don't think I've ever seen that before.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Baldness is in and has been in for a long time, especially at PA. I naturally have a thick head of hair, but shaved it all off some time ago. Well, that’s because I did such a lousy job trying to use a tool to cut it yourself, messed up, so took it all off. You look healthy.   I’d like immortality if I felt that I could always be improving, learning and growing, but not perhaps if my life stagnated and I felt that I had already reached my potential. And I wouldn’t want to outlive my children. Really I would love to have a lot more time to waste.

LOL 

^ People say I don't physically show my age. If it weren't for my *almost* baldness (see my avatar), I might be mistaken for a university student. I also feel, like my soul is ancient sometimes. Not like supernaturally and all... More like intuitively. Also there is still a kid inside me!!! Even my surname is plural, you know? Durakoğulları: it means something like "stop or station (like a bus stop) sons". Plurality ist krieg!!!

Being alive in 2080? I would wish to be immortal, but would never risk interfering in my natural self for the sake of it. Ageing well and then dying is also perfectly OK for me.

^ V was very cool.

And in films Tron had big impact on me about that time, and a Werewolf in London.

Indeed a very happy new year to all. Sorry snipping and I will check out the film, but with the way my mind regularly associates, your post took me on a short and silly flight of fancy....

I would love a decade like the 80s to come around again, but at least in 59 years we'll have another 80s. That said, I don't think it will be very much like "our" 80s. People will be into Post-Neo-New New Wave music by then, but Neo-Prog from the 1980s will still be called Neo-Prog -- some things just never will change.

I'm planning to be alive in 2080 although some would say that's wishful thinking.

People have been telling me that I have really aged recently, so I started using a little anti-ageing cream (the wife's -- she never seems to age much, but that might be the Oriental in her more than the cream).   I figure that if I use if for long enough, by 2080 I should look about 20. If I want to be physically 20 and not just look it, then I figure I'm going to need to inject the cream to anti-age my organs. I'm worried if I use too much I might turn into a foetus.

Please nobody try this, but I think it may still be better than injecting disinfectants like bleach to deal with pesky viruses.
