    Here's a question I'll bet no one has asked you yet...how come Jerry's hair looks red in some pictures and then gray in other pictures. 😂 I know you're a true red head because of your skin tone. Love your videos. I've probably watched all 500+ of them. 👍👍

    This is a trip down memory lane, and a really good idea so people can investigate specific topics.

    Anyone that is derogatory to you or Gizmo are just people who are unhappy with their lives and so they try to bring other people down to their level of a dissatisfied life. The old saying that misery loves company is their issue, not anyone else. I mentioned it to you before, that when I watch your videos, you both take me back a few decades to simpler and less antagnoistic times. Its a good thing. Thank you for all your work.

    I think I've watched most of those. Did you know on your phone, you can't search only within someone's channel. The search goes to all of TH-cam and this shows you anything that it thinks is related to your query. What would be super helpful, is if you could put the links to all those videos in the shownotes. But that would be alot of work, and we don't want to put you out. Thank you so much. You know, I take all your golfcart rides and save them to a play list. I watch those when I'm working out on my elliptical. ❤

    Someone talked to me about 'right eye', 'left eye,' natural 'intelligence, I guess, and that person would say that the 'universe' lifted and opened Linda's right eye at 3:11 minutes in after you talked about the group golf photo copy-and-pasted for not-so-fabulous reasons. And, according to this person, the right eye is about Life and letting those in-the-know in on the fact that those who cherish living and positive things are 'protected' per se. A little thing that came up along the way and, here it is showing up in the way these images were laid out or presented, per se. 👍
