Is tinkikling close to what they do in CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG in the song "Me Old Bamboo"?

Have you listened to HALF A SIXPENCE lately? ? ? A certain song in CCBB bears a startling resemblance to one in SIXPENCE. . . .

Hisaka SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS is an all time favorite movie of mine. I hope you enjoy it.

DR Jane - just for you (well, actually for all the dog-lovers at HHW):

TD, your pup (whose name I can't remember) is so adorable!

DR Pogue - avert your eyes!

The following is for those of us with no interest in the Super Bowl, but a confirmed yen for BEEFCAKE:

DR MBarnum, Miss Dixie Bell thinks that you're just the cat's meow, too.

I just got off of the phone with one of my previous interviewees Carolyn Kearney. She told me that she did a commentary for her episode of Twilight Zone for an upcoming DVD release. There were about 10 vintage TZ performers who were gathered together to do commentary for their particular episodes, including another of my interviewees William Reynolds.

I am presuming that these commentaries are not on the most recent boxed set...or are they? Carolyn thought that this new set was to be released in another month or so. Has anyone any info??? I am most curious!

Thank you. It looks like that cutie is enjoying her den.

Danise-congrats on the size 8 jeans.

Michael Shayne-feel better soon vibes.

Jennifer how are you?

I am quite logey all of a sudden. All of a sudden I am quite logey. Quite logey am I, and all of a sudden, too.

We are on the phone with Bryan. I can type while he and Keith discuss Keith’s new computer game-this could go on for another hour.

We were telling Bryan the news in today’s paper of a finalist on the Bachelorette who is from our neighboring town , and MBarnum’s home town, of Medford. Bryan asked “what’s Bachelorette?”.

In all fairness he does not have a TV. After we explained the concept of the show he asked who would watch that. Hope I didn't insult anyone. $:-\$

Dearest Jane, you should know by now that I will put whipped cream on anything sweet. I just love me my whipped cream. In this particular instance, however, I plead innocent - it was suggested by our somnambulistic waitress.

Jane · « **Reply #163 on:** February 06, 2005, 06:17:43 PM »

LOL-I know that. I meant Amber's-place of the best broasted chicken-yes?

bk · « **Reply #164 on:** February 06, 2005, 06:29:04 PM »

Oh, yes, both Pogue and I posted that yesterday - Amber's was THE broasted chicken.

Jane · « **Reply #165 on:** February 06, 2005, 06:38:06 PM »

The woman who owned the store was very nice. We became regulars, as often as we could afford to go, and often picked up the chicken for our dog that had a sensitive stomach.

bk · « **Reply #166 on:** February 06, 2005, 06:50:24 PM »

Yes, we ate there quite a bit, too. I think one of my ex-wife's nieces worked there.

My other regular hangout in that nabe was Barone's.

I am feeling quite logey, and, might I just add, I have PHLEGM!

Speaking of PHLEGM, I've just noticed that in a mere seventy postings I shall be achieving a new plateau, and what a plateau it is.

Jane, not only was Amber's the best broasted chicken...But the corner of Woodman and Ventura, used to be a favourite with me. Catty-corner to Amber's was Scene of the Crime bookstore that I used to frequent and a little further down the street on the north side of Ventura before you got to Woodman was Dangerous Visions Bookstore, another hangout of mine. And on the southwest corner of Ventura was an Orange Julius. Food and Books. Sort of one-stop-shopping for me. I could pick up some reading material, slake my thirst, and then get supper to take home. Alas, all are gone now except for the Orange Juliius (At least I think it's still there). I hate change.

Barone's-was that pizza?

Jane · « **Reply #171 on:** February 06, 2005, 07:17:30 PM »

Pogue, I’m racking my brain to remember these other places. I should at least recall an Orange Julius so close to me. But then the only distinctive, and the best, one was in Westwood Village behind Stan’s donuts.

Ambers had not been there all that long before we moved to No. Hollywood and we didn’t return often to Ambers. How many years was it there?

Most of my walks were to the park with our dog but I often walked along there. Keith and I would walk to Ralph’s to shop. On the way we would browse the stores.

I’m waiting for Keith to stop playing his game and will see what he can remember.

bk · « **Reply #172 on:** February 06, 2005, 07:29:20 PM »

I loved both Scene of the Crime and Dangerous Visions. Too bad they couldn't have weathered the storm, for they'd be doing well now if they had.

My daughter and I used to frequent that Orange Julius quite often.

Barone's is an Eyetalian restaurant (there used to be one in Burbank, too) - it's still quite popular with the lunch crowd. They're known for their square pizza, which is quite yummilicious, and they have the best scampi in town.

Jane, I'm racking my brain too, but I can't find any room for the eight ball.

I'm watching Gunga Din.

Is this a mini-frenzy?

Charles Pogue · « **Reply #177 on:** February 06, 2005, 07:48:47 PM »

Jane, there was also an Amber's in North Hollywood. I don't know when they finally died out. It was after The Lovely wife had made her way out here in '85, because we would frequent it for a few years after that.

Gunga Din: "Kill for the love of killing, Kill for the love of Kali! Kill! Kill! Kill!" "Alright, you're all under arrest." "Hey, save some for the elephant." "Oh no, sahib, very little go a very long way." "A fork! What do you think I want to break out of...a bloomin' pudding?" "If you don't stop talking about gold, I'll tear the back off you with a shovel." "You can't stop an expedition, I'm a expedition, see!" "You both displease me greatly and I ignore the both of you." "The Colonel's got to know!" "Good work, bugler!"

One of my favourite movies!

Jane · « **Reply #178 on:** February 06, 2005, 07:51:19 PM »

Keith remembers Scene of the Crime. We did eat at Barone’s occasionally because it was convenient.

Keith worked at the Studio City Theater which is now gone. Is it now a book store? We lived on Ventura Cyn Place, one or two blocks from Woodman, off of Ventura. Can you tell me the name of the park we walked to? We, or I, took our dog there almost every evening after I got home from work. It was fun and we met a nice group of people, along with their dogs. Through the group is how we found the little rental house we move to in No. Hollywood.

Okay, with guilt I confess to having been roped into "Super" viewing. But it was with people who could care less about the game. Unlike many, I hate the ads even more than the game, so it was mostly not an excellent experience. The game was dull, the commercials entirely bereft of humor. The sexual content was non-existent due to last year, so almost every ad was populated by a talking animal.

But the positives: A great 7-layer dip prepared by The Lady. And the Discovery Animal Channel was showing something called the Puppy Bowl. Literally non-stop footage of puppies in a little makeshift football stadium. Just playing and being puppies. It was programming with far more cojones than anything Fox was offering.
