One more, then we'll get back to the discussion. My sister and I used to dance in the basement to my brother's stereo with this one:

I loved Frasier. The had a treasure of great lines! Such writing. Great show to watch in taping too. A highly professional ensemble, they could shoot in 90 minutes.. in TV audience terms, that is very fast. they kept the jokes coming in rhythm.
>Bulldog: *Hey, look, I know how tough it is when you're a kid and you find out you're dad's not as great as you thought. Look, I was about Frederick's age when, well, I came home, my mom was out and I caught my dad with another woman.*
>Frasier: *Oh, Bulldog, I'm sorry.*
>Bulldog: *No, no, wait, you haven't heard the bad part yet! She was ugly, doc. I mean coyote ugly. My own dad. And the best excuse he could come up with was, "Hey, you don't look at the mantle when you're poking the fire!" . . . . Hey, I just got that!* (laughs)
>Frasier: *So, how do the calls look today?*
>Roz: *Well, we've got a couple of jilted lovers, a man who's afraid of his car, a manic depressive, and three people who feel their lives are going nowhere.*
>Frasier: *Oh, I love a Monday.*

>finance wrote on another thread: Question for you guys. There is a great song I hear on Sirius "First Wave". I don't know the title or the artist. Presumably it is considered '80s new wave. It has a recurring refrain, "Look away, look away, look away, look away, look away"......., and another one, "Walk away, walk away, walk away, walk away, walk away"......... What song and artist is this?
I don't know if you could have picked worst words for a search; Just keying in those words yielded 50K possible results. Uniqueness counts in this instance.
Next time you hear it, you may want to glance at the player... Do you have a smart phone? Download Sound Hound.

No, this is Xanadu:
Yeah, and the fireplace is big enough to walk into. .

Cityscapes are nice and all, but Jake's posts are inspiring, and I thought I would introduce a blend of preservation and Hollywood.
*Harold Lloyd's GreenAcres Estate:*
Hollywood Luxury, listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

*The entry:*

*the drawing room:*

I found a website of preservation architects that is keeping me hopeful of living in a craftsmen someday myself-

>*The Summer Palace, 1789: King Louis, whose tinkering with time pieces did not tell him that his own time was running out; Queen Marie, who tinkered with everything but time pieces - she didn't care what time it was; but the Duke d'Escargot knew what time it was - his tinkering was well-timed. For the time was 1789!*

Happy birthday, Audrey Hepburn.

I don't like to admit this, but I found this cake at the Google "Bakery" hehe..
But I thought the youtube video so sweet, I had to use it.

the population of Toronto today is around 5 million, but
The population of Toronto in 1970 was 2.5 million, and
The population of Toronto in 1960 was 1.7 million.

Good one. Obsession is one of my personal favorites, and the other city featured in it is New Orleans in the winter and it is a very non-typical look at that fine city.

Thank you for mentioning Theresa and her work. Don't just dream; do! I stick to my software and watch the film in my imagination, Screenwriters for motion picture can live anywhere.. Only TV writers really need to be where the studios are anymore. We don't all want to be an auteur.
Though I am hard at work on putting together a Pitch Book now for one screenplay and working on my portfolio with the others.
It was so funny today; I chased a TV news truck down to get a photo of it. If my plans work in favor and my next dream is manifested I will share the adventures I've had following my muse.

Fascinated by the idea of a 35 mm camera; why choose that when newer technology rules the medium?
Will Film Museums be your showcases then? Most theaters will be converting to digital.

Ha! wonderful. It is still there:

I know there are people who dream of doing something someday, but until you declare it, it will remain a wish, and not a plan.
My Hollywood Bucket List
1. --write a screenplay-- (done it)
2. Tour the locations of SUMMERTIME and FUNNY FACE
And get photos of me there

ah, friend, looks like the city father's saw the main street and just saw "the noise"... The transition looks painful indeed. So sorry.
I am looking for a building in Bergen, Norway that was destroyed in WW2 and they rebuilt it -- exactly the way it was!

That's what I love about it... It's a Road picture. Sturges introduces and then leaves characters behind. I love the novel way The Ale and Quail Club is handled through the Conductor. Those guys will be fine. They can go hunting for breakfast, though the way they partied it will be lunch.. LOL

Thanks for sharing, darkblue. I heard this today on my iPod in shuffle, and the way I was feeling it was very cathartic:
