I think in London there is a statue of Bodelicious in her chariot.

I went to see "The Chronicles of Nardia" this morning. I enjoyed it a lot. Good fun.

Contains the enjoyable song, "Soupy of the Secret Service." I haven't heard it said, but I think Soupy is a good singer. He has a kind of cool, effortless charm.

I have only the vaguest of memories of the Soupy Sales Show.  Perhaps they are implanted memories and not mine at all.

Quick, Watson, page eight.

I only saw one episode of Dick Van Dyke being shot, and I really doubt I'd remember it.

Do any of you wise folks know if there's a list of Warner Bros. soundtracks that were on LP?  If so, point me to it.

Tonight I watched EBB TIDE, courtesy JMK. As cracked-up crazy as I hoped it would be. Definitely not enough Frances Farmer, no doubt about that. It's as if her character was written into some other movie, but she stowed along on the wrong boat and ended up in the wrong movie. I mean she has zero reason for existing in this film. Zero!

Next theory I want to advance is that Lloyd Nolan is one of the greats. Really, a fine, fine, film presence. That must be said.

He has some dialogue in this film that is just off the charts. For instance:

LN (to Ray Milland): Are you fond of parables?
RM: Yes, in a way.
LN: Well then, I saw these diving suits go down into the sea and come up...dripping. And all the while the fellow inside was dry as toast. And I thought we all needed a suit to go down into the world in and come up scatheless. What do you think its name was?
RM (perplexed): Let's call it "self respect"?
LN: Why not "grace," Harry? Why not "INFINITE GRACE"?

The looks on the faces of Oscar Homolka and Barry Fitzgerald at this moment are priceless. In fact the film has more close-ups by far than most movies. Kind of a seedy and nihilistic, yet enjoyable ride to nowhere. EBB TIDE.

Can't find a definitive list.  Interesting.  And of course, the WB Music site is NOT interested in posting a history.

And Frances has a great voice!!  The boat they used is docked near a pier in Catalina and still proudly proclaims its use in the movie....or it did in the late 1980's.

I tired of the IDOL auditions after the first two nights and haven't watched any more. I'll start back with it tomorrow now that they're in the Hollywood round.

Good Evening!

Greetings from Fairfax!

After watching "American Idol" with Steve - and sitting there amazed at the proceedings from time to time - I got back into my car and headed back up 95 to Fairfax.  A very easy drive up.  No traffic - even though the BIG LED traffic signs kept saying, "ROAD WORK AHEAD, EXPECT DELAYS".  I passed the road work, but there was so little traffic tonight, I don't think a back up was possible.  Not that I'm complaining.

And I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank the Ford Motor Company for making such a fine vehicle.  My 1993 Ford Escort Wagon is just past the 223,200 mile mark, and she's running fine.  According to my latest bit of figuring, I'm still averaging 45mpg!  Thank You, Ford!

;D

I watched another episode of NCIS tonight (my second) since I wasn't going to watch any more IDOL auditions. Do we have fans of the show here? I guess it's OK, but I just don't find the mysteries, the clues not paths to the solutions all that riveting.

But it's one of CBS' biggest hits, so I guess lots of folks do like it.
