Actually that episode ran a few months ago. Really disappointing. Take
a perfectly good Jeep and only use the dog house, what a violation.
Typical for someone of Jessie's caliber. What's with that hat, does he
ever take it off?
Also, on "Trucks" aired on Spike TV (the network for men who love
commercials) I saw back in December they got a very complete, solid and
original early WC series Dodge weapons carrier. It started out ok, but
when that fat pudgy goofball indicated they were going to give it a lift
kit, and huge wheels and tires (which would never fit within a WC front
or rear fender), I decided not to ever waste my time watching that piece
of wannabe crap. THAT WAS A TOTAL WASTE OF A WC.
Hey...anyone notice that on SciFi channel's BatleStar Galactica (the
new version) that the handheld comm units they use on that futuristic
space ship are U.S. Military TP-1 sound powered field phones??
