replica but still
Yeah I grew up watching the original Batman series on television as a kid. I do like Batman stuff. The Petersen museum would be a thrill too, so best of both worlds. I have done many road trips to the U.S. so I must add that to my list.

My avatar was given to me by my son when he was quite young, so it stuck with me. I got a good laugh from it when he first showed it to me years ago lol. It shows up better in larger form

I think the term gravy may have started in Jersey ? I never heard it much until recent years when watching certain shows featuring characters from New Jersey. But I certainly understand how the term describes the goodness of the well cooked and meat packed sauce mom used to make every Sunday at our place.

Yeah think your correct! My 1st born likes to say Sunday Gravy but he lived for a short time in NY
My Husband is Sweedish so he says my 3 's aka boys who are all now young men are SwItalian

& yeah when they want Meatballs they need to specify moms or Pops

^ Yeah it is cool in larger form, I love it to this day. My son was like five year's old when he showed me the internet pic. lol. We always tolerated a few choice words or the occasional indecent gesture in our household, rather than scolding him. So we shared a good laugh with him rather than giving him a "time out"

My legal name is Giuseppe, everyone calls me Joey.

My screen name comes from a great moment in the movie "Animal House" , when Blutarsky's grade point average was read aloud. I still laugh to this day when I hear that part of the movie.


I guess it's about time I post one of these now

Yes sir Thanks for the warm welcome .

I realize most of the anger towards us comes from us giving your great country Celine Dion, but we can't make her come back, lol.
