Old TV shows keep showing up on Cable channels like TV LAND and Nickelodeon. Lots of black and white stuff is coming out on DVD now. If somebody ribs you or someone else for being older and knowing some TV show, just ask them if they have ever seen TV LAND or Nickelodeon. It is fun! Hmmm, it might work for history too. Younger person says "Berlin wall? What's a Berlin wall? Never heard of it." You say "Don't you ever watch the History Channel?". Bye. Linda G.
