I met Flip in 7th grade. It has been about a year since we have communicated. I should write him and say hello.

True, DR KERRY - or even better - well BEST would be Miss Dove.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #152 on:** February 07, 2005, 02:17:10 PM »

Oh yes, you must, DRJANE. I also thought he was very good as Eddie Foy Jr's son in FAIR EXCHANGE!

Laura, you have never seen "a" Gunga Din movie? There is only "one" Gunga Din movie!

I was going to say the same thing but thought maybe she knew something I didn't know!

You know I saw Flip Mark in something or other just recently! And he was in an episode of Jack Benny show and an episode of Lassie!

Hey, DR Jane, ask him if he wants to do an interview...I would be most pleased to do a story on him!

Gunga is in good company, Laura-wise. She's never seen a Bogart movie nor a Gregory Peck movie.

I'm having tuna on a bagel.

I just do not like the whole Trader Joe's vibe, I must say. I got some corn bread mix there, and the majority of the people who shop there are so uppity and attitude-laden, as are their little children who are, of course, just taking after mommy and daddy.

Or like Elvis Presley and Burgess Meredith were Indians in STAY AWAY JOE.

Same source material for Susan Johnson's WHOOP-UP, ne c'est-pas?

I had two count them two packages. Some CDs and a DVD, all from France, and a copy of the Scent of Mystery soundtrack LP which I recently won on eBay.

I got an autographed copy of a Billy Herrington video in the mail today.

Well, I read where the Mousetrap in London is still booking to December 5, 2005. Will the beast never die?

Jane, I meant to tell you that if my link to BBC7 doesn't work just type it into your search engine and I'm sure it will bring you to the site (or just go to the BBC page which will link you to everything BBC...radio and TV), then click on the "LISTEN AGAIN" section...and it take to a page where you can get programmes for the last seven days that you can listen to at anytime.

BK, it must be the vibe at your particular Trader's...I don't get much of a vibe one way or t'other at the various ones I go to...and the selection and items are so good, I don't much care if there were. You going to that one next to Du-par's?

bk · « **Reply #164 on:** February 07, 2005, 03:31:53 PM »

Only eight more posts until my new LARGE plateau. This is getting exciting.

Corn bread - now there's an idea. I could just mosey on over to Trader Joe's and get me some corn bread mix. Hmmm. Of course, I also have quite a few Entenmann's chocolate donuts left, and I also have some Vanilla Swiss Almond Ice Cream left. Hmmmm.

Corn bread mix? A MIX?

After all those simple-as-pie recipes we've posted here that would beat any mix by a mile?

Where's the spirit? Where's the moxie? Where's the adventure?

bk · « **Reply #166 on:** February 07, 2005, 03:33:01 PM »

Yes, the Trader Joe's next to Du-Par's. You know how some Studio City people are - they just think the world revolves around them.

Does anybody else out there have the "Bunny Lake..." DVD?

If so, did you notice the very strange opening titles?

On my TV, the titles showed up as a mini-letterboxed-image as though I was going to get a miniature letterbox version of the film....and after the final main credit, it went to full widescreen, touching both sides of my TV picture.

Lunch today: Reuben on toasted rye with a side of potato salad. Ate at the Big Apple Deli on Oakland's 14th Street in the heart of downtown...

On the way out, I spied the deli owner frying fish and I commented it looked really good. He broke off a huge hunk of it and handed it to me to "try" --- and it was scrumptious, truly....piquant and flavorful...and it was salmon, too.

Be careful. I've read about a P-10K Problem. Not every message board was set up to handle over 9,999 posts. When the digits flip the fallout could be catastrophic. World banks will be affected and your taste buds will render all your food "chalky".

I gave Miss Vickie a good brushing yesterday afternoon. It has become a less-enjoyable activity for her as she is now just skin and bones, but she was looking a bit tatty...fortunately, no fur was matted.

She tolerated my gentle ministrations very appreciatively...and I must have brushed away 25% of her body weight in fur.

Nice that I know about WHOOP-UP?

The Bunny credits are very strange. If you're watching the disc on a widescreen TV, the main title image is letterboxed in a 4:3 image. Peculiar. Some wag on one of these idiot sites suggested that they were merely windowboxed to get all the image in. Obviously, the wag doesn't understand the term "windowbox". I cannot, for the life of me, figure it out. It was the same way on TCM when they showed it. It most certainly was not that way in the theaters.

10,000 posts AND daily notes all this time - I would guess that is as many words as WAR AND PEACE!

Yes td the VERY same source material. Huffington....any relation to Ariana?

A mere five posts until my new LARGE plateau.

And when I achieve it, I will be OOZING with excitement.

JRand, you never did say what song from Chitty seems a knockoff of a song from Half a Sixpence.
