Frank Ashmore[^] is Victor.
I dunno, don't the Youth Of Today study the classics?
It's a series of quotes from the film Airplane!a>[^] starring Leslie Nielsen (whose death was reported here so many times that a repost is now known as "A Leslie") and a rich font of quotes, such as:
Rumack: You'd better tell the Captain we've got to land as soon as we can. This woman has to be gotten to a hospital.
Elaine Dickinson: A hospital? What is it?
Rumack: It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.
Roger Murdock: Flight 2-0-9'er, you are cleared for take-off.
Captain Oveur: Roger!
Roger Murdock: Huh?
Tower voice: L.A. departure frequency, 123 point 9'er.
Captain Oveur: Roger!
Roger Murdock: Huh?
Victor Basta: Request vector, over.
Captain Oveur: What?
Tower voice: Flight 2-0-9'er cleared for vector 324.
Roger Murdock: We have clearance, Clarence.
Captain Oveur: Roger, Roger. What's our vector, Victor?
Tower voice: Tower's radio clearance, over!
Captain Oveur: That's Clarence Oveur. Over.
Tower voice: Over.
Captain Oveur: Roger.
Roger Murdock: Huh?
Tower voice: Roger, over!
Roger Murdock: What?
Captain Oveur: Huh?
Victor Basta: Who?
And the seminal:
Rumack: Can you fly this plane, and land it?
Ted Striker: Surely you can't be serious.
Rumack: I am serious... and don't call me Shirley.

Who are you calling "Youth of Today". I've been retired for nearly ten years. The only Shirley I can remember is someone called Shirley Temple, but I can't remember what she did. Oh, and a girl called Shirley I found behind the bike sheds when I was ten. I wonder what happened to her!!

I don't want to know what you and Shirley got up to!

CP is an awesome community. Keep up the good work! And Happy B-Day to Bob!

They are good really singers though, lots of opera/church choir stuff.
Tom Jones comes to mind too. (The person, not the sheep)

I'm not sure that sheep-sodden vapor counts as either "fresh" or "air".

A sad fate[^]
So ... own up! Who else has bought a cheap one and had that?
(Worst I bought was a Chinese 32Gb which turned out to be a 2GB that reported itself as 32 and overwrote itself when you exceeded that... )

So far, I have only purchased one external storage device: Buffalo 500 GB[^]. It still has almost 200 GB of free space.
I always wonder why people need more. Recently, my brother had shared something on his Sandisk USB with me. I now use it as bootable linux.

That's why I always buy brand-name devices. The savings in cost is not worth the aggravation.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Being Chinese no-name brand then it probably is 32GB, once you write to it 16 times it stops working. (That is, if you got the 'good quality' one, many don't even last that long )

Sorry, but I thought that was funny.
I had a 32GB name brand Micro SD in my phone. It worked fine for about 18 months, right up until it didn't. The phone started saying it had to scan and fix it. I let it fix it many times. I moved the stuff off the SD card onto the internal storage. I Deleted the content several times, but it just kept reappearing. I tried formatting it on my PC several times, but that kept failing regardless of the format options I chose.
Essentially it transformed itself into a hybrid card - part read-only, part read-write
I have never had any storage device do this before. Anyway, a month ago I replaced it with a different name brand 128 GB micro SD card and that is working just fine (for now).
