were younger. By way of example, here's Falco and "Der
Kommissar":
Apparently a version of this
Japanese game show is coming to America. This is very silly:

31 places to visit this summer...if you can afford the
road-trip. Mr. J can vouch for #2 on the list (New Hampshire)
being very good indeed, and not too far away.
