Ginny, why of course! My pleasure.

BTW, I didn't know until today that there are people at work that don't have a klew what Clue is!

We were having a meeting in the room they call the library and I happened to say that I thought Mr. Green did it in the library with the lead pipe. Some people said, "huh?". They didn't get the reference at all! Wow!

This beats that.

JRand, did you get your Lightfoot?
I only have it on vinyl. I could make an mp3 of that, but I think it will be too big to send via email.

Hey Dan and Tomovoz!

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #126 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:25:55 PM »

Hey Rodz, How's it hangin?

Rodzinski · « **Reply #127 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:28:53 PM »

Loose, baby.

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #128 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:31:56 PM »

DR Rodz, you broke the 1K barrier! I'm close to 2K myself.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #129 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:32:11 PM »

I watched an odd film this evening entitled AGGIE APPELEBY: MAKER OF MEN from 1933. I find you can't go wrong watching movies from 1933.

Zasu Pitts is quite good in it.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #130 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:34:12 PM »

Holy Cow, Dan! I didn't even notice passing that landmark!

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #131 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:38:59 PM »

Zasu Pitts--I've seen her in many a flick but I know absolutely nothing about her life or career as a whole.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #132 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:39:00 PM »

Now you are just 9 posts away from 2k, so you should do a Top 9 of some sort or list the starting lineup of your favorite baseball players by position.

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #133 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:40:01 PM »

Whoops! I already used another post so I can only do a Top Eight.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #134 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:41:05 PM »

I've only seen a little Zasu. Pretty unique persona, but I too know nothing about her life. I know there was a band from San Francisco that called themselves The Zasu Pitts Memorial Orchestra.

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #135 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:41:27 PM »

D'oh! Too late for a Top Eight--and whoever heard of a Top Seven?

Rodzinski · « **Reply #136 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:41:52 PM »

8, hmmm... Top 8 hamburger buns?

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #137 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:42:54 PM »

I'm trying to come up with an anagram for Zasu Pitts but I'm coming up short.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #138 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:43:28 PM »

How bout a Top 007. Your favorite James Bond movies?

Rodzinski · « **Reply #139 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:44:04 PM »

Only 5 to go now!

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #140 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:49:51 PM »

I should go put on my "2000" glasses I wore on New Years Eve five years ago.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #141 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:51:54 PM »

I hope we don't experience any "Post 2K" problems.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #142 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:54:32 PM »

Just noticed the text beneath your photo. Is that a reference to the strange TV film with Robert Reed, Andy Griffith, Marjoe Gortner and Angie Dickinson?

Tomovoz · « **Reply #143 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:56:55 PM »

A late reply.. Hi Rodzinski

Yes! I've been waiting for someone to pick up on that.

I don't really remember much about that particular ABC Movie of the Week except for Angie in the preview spewing "Pray for the Wildcats, baby!"

Tomovoz · « **Reply #145 on:** June 03, 2005, 08:58:58 PM »

Another 4 DtM.

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #146 on:** June 03, 2005, 09:05:14 PM »

Yep, DR Tom--millennium approaches. I wish I had some meaningful posts to lead up to it, but I got nothin'.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #147 on:** June 03, 2005, 09:05:14 PM »

"Pray For the Wildcats" always stuck with me since I caught it late one night in my teens. Shatner is in it too, come to think of it. Griffith plays these guys boss, and he makes them go on a weekend motorcycle trek. He's a brute and is seeing how far he can push the guys, and they put up with it since he's the boss. Then he molests some woman. I mean, not the type of fare you want to see Andy Griffith, Captain Kirk and Mike Brady in!

I remember Angie delivers that title line, staring at the guys as they ride away on their bikes, and it is mega-corny.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #148 on:** June 03, 2005, 09:06:22 PM »

Two to go. Bring it on home!

Tomovoz · « **Reply #149 on:** June 03, 2005, 09:08:01 PM »

Not quite TOTD but I have just finished reading the very funny "Aberystwyth Mon Amour". Funniest book I've read in years. Probably since Tom Sharpe's books.
