Any time.

A little off topic just when we were getting back on track here. Anyone else watching Goosebumps this month on Cartoon Network? They're showing two episodes per weekday night for a total of 40 episodes this month.

I have to disagree. One of the things I like about pre-codes is the unpredictability of the endings.

Yeah, they might not be word-for-word.

"Just can't seem to forget you, that Windsong stays on my mind.." Levis commercial to the tune of "Mule Skinner Blues", "Creee - eee --- eee- eepy crawlers.." Choo, choo Charlie was an engineer... (I see someone's mentioned this one already) You'll get a quick tan with QT! Rice-a-roni, the San Francisco treat. Hamm's, the beer refreshing. It's so fast that you can't drink it slow if it's Quik...

I never saw Advance to the Rear (1964) before - until yesterday. I like Glenn Ford in a comedy and it seems that this was also an influential movie.

Actors include Jim Backus and Alan Hale Jr. who would soon be cast as castaways Thurston Howell III and "The Skipper" in Gillig
