  1. I don't want to have to start making a post just for a Haha, or what-have-you, but I don't want anybody to think I've stopped responding either.... Gosh, if MCOH can't figure this one out I feel I really am in a quandary. I've been having sort-of-an innocent little "feud" with the Mod of late. Don't suppose he/she would be messing with me, do yah?
  2. I just clicked on a "Like" to your post. But Nothing. No I've done nothing that should affect that here. (at least not that I'm aware of....) I have been posting quite a few "Likes" & "Haha's" etc. of late... I think I remember awhile back someone else posted about a similar problem, but that may have been around the time of this last "board revision." I seem to remember someone saying that there was a daily or weekly, or whatever limit to the number of "Likes" we could post in a day, or whatever.... I didn't think that there was anything to that at the time, but now I'm beginning to wonder?
  3. My "Thanks," "Haha," "Confused," "Sad," & "Like" Reactions are No Longer posting? Evidently some time last night they stopped showing up. This morning the same. But I notice that others "Reactions" since then are posting. My later posts are there, but NOT my "Reactions" to anyone elses. Is this happening to others here? Does anyone know how to correct it?
  4. There are only those two mentioned that TCM regularly airs. Though similar, they are different. I've recorded both and re-watched more than once. Really enjoy the old clips (heck they're ALL old now, aren't they), likewise the one you just posted above. Hard to get enough Errol, isn't it BTW, if I remember correctly that clip has Errol and his first firebrand of a wife, Lili Damita playing in the snow. Rumour was that they liked to fight like cats and dogs, but loved "making up" afterward even better!
  5. Damn, couldn't just get the images to post. How about "Broadway Joe" of N.Y. Jets and L.A. Rams fame. (aka Joe Namath) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Namath#/media/File:Namath_1965.jpg http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0620619/mediaviewer/rm3017280512
  6. Oh Crap! Does that mean that this (and the original) entire thread/s will disappear too??? All our fine work.... Gone to the Cornfield??? That would be sorta sad, I think. If the two threads started by Joe and at least "our" posts could remain, then though Joe would be gone, he would never be forgotten. What a tribute that would be to a two time poster, eh!
  7. Betty Boop...Banned, Politically Incorrect Pre-Code Cartoons... (some of us can remember watching these on TV) More Banned Betty.... Colorized version....(Not for Purists) Original in Color... (the first & only of that era) After looking at a few of these I'm sure that most will agree that no matter how innocent, Little Betty was just too provocative for the Hays Code. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_Picture_Production_Code

Reposted this one over there:
  9. Heady for Hedy?.... In Any Language, Hedy is Beautiful!
  10. Anyone Like Mae? Oh that Delilah! No wonder Samson fell.... Smart Lady.... Take your time with Mae.... She's No Angel, but....
  11. Anybody still like Swing? How About..... More.... Like Funk?
  12. Let's Dance... with the Stars! Want More Bowie.... Show us How it's Done, Ladies!
  13. And now, back to... The Macarena Everybody Loves The Macarena!
  14. But I wish you'd reconsider Joe, cause I think with your mastery of the concise post, you'd end up with a lot of followers here. I know I'd be one!

  16. Does anyone here remember seeing a flick that I haven't seen since I first saw at the drive-in back when.... I Was a Teenage Werewolf (1957) which featured a very young Michael Landon as the experimental victim of an evil doctor played by the iconic character actor, Whit Bissell. Landon is a teen with anger management issues that make him the perfect "candidate" for Bissell's primitive regression experiments. It was the first half of a horrific double feature paired with... you guessed it I Was a Teenage Frankenstein (1957) also starring Whit Bissell, who in this one plays Professor Frankenstein (a descendant of the original) who takes the mangled corpses of teenage automobile accident victims and reassembles them. It was back in those days when I also first saw the original Fly and Return Of... Oh and The Alligator People (1959) which featured George Macready (I think as a doctor, but can't remember if he was evil or "mad" in that one), also Bruce Bennett, and a one armed alligator hater played by Lon Chaney Jr. I do remember there were some experiments involved which turned a tortured soul into a two legged alligator. But likewise haven't reseen that one since those old drive-in days, so memories are kinda vague.
  17. That's it Tom, Beam Ends. It was an early biographical book of Flynn's memoirs of adventure sailing around Australia & New Guinea back when he was a young man. I think it was first published in the mid '30s. I remember first reading it when I was still quite an impressionable young lad myself. And again many years later I checked it out from a library. I've since searched for a copy to "own" but it has been out-of-print a number of years now and whenever I look for it in used book stores it is terribly overpriced. Seems there's always someone desiring to make an obscene buck off Flynn, even today. I do own a well worn paperback copy of My Wicked, Wicked Ways, Flynn's reflective autobiography written shortly before his death. He also wrote another book, a work of pure fiction, that no doubt was also pure Flynn. Gonna have to check that one out, now that I'm at a safer (less impressionable) age to do so. I feel for what you said: "Flynn was almost alone as a rogue to envy. It's a damn shame that with so much going for him he was also self destructive." Not exactly the best role model for anyone to want to follow. In fact the antithesis of one. Still I've always been attracted to such lovable rogues. And I went through a potentially "self-destructive" phase during my life as well, though I didn't exactly realize it as such at the time. I was one of the "lucky" ones, who pulled out before it was time to pay the piper.
  18. Ha, a suitably ugly photo of her. Leona Helmsley aka "The Queen of Mean" "We don't pay taxes; only the little people pay taxes" Hah, also sounds like something Trump laughingly says when he "files" his....
  19. Musical Montage Tributes to our favorite Stars! Been looking for a more appropriate forum to place this thread, and this one appears to be it. If someone has already created a similar thread here, please let me know about it and I'll request to have my thread "fused" with that one. Really Love these little musical tributes with either video or photo montages. Please contribute your favorites (or any that amuse/entertain/make you smile, or shed a tear) here to share with myself and the rest of us who enjoy such loving creativity! Thanks all Hah, Love it. That song was very popular among the "green" crowd I hung with in the late eighties. Along with that dancing baby, what was the name of that dance....??? Ah yes, The Macarena! Long version, Full song Another goody And another.... And.... You Likey?.... Take that, Dancing With The Stars! More! And More.... For those romantics among us.... Come on, you know you Love this... A beautiful woman with beautiful music.... More Music please.... Just one more.... How about... And for the Ladies... And for us Boomer boys! Sadly.... For Speedracer & Tom.... For those who Can't get enough Flynn? In with Flynn... Back to the beginning... And Forward, Toward the End.... Ahhh those glorious 50's.... Really loving this YouTube channel, one fused hit after another! Finding it extremely addictive... a lucky find. Well I'm sure I could keep this up all night, in fact I just did. I certainly hope that those of you who stuck with this enjoyed it as much as I did sharing it with you. So for all you Lovely Ladies and Fine Gents out there in TCM land, this is radio Stephan55, wishing you pleasant dreams, and goodnight!
