Depends on the model and wear on the chassis.
Ladies only topic!
I've got some really risqué remarks, but I'll honor your "Ladies only" restriction.

That's right, Swithin.
Your turn.
Swithin?

My Trader Joe's has no security, and live music!
It's right near the beer and ale section, past the wine shelving.
Last week the guy was playing "All Along the Watchtower" a la, Jimi Hendrix. I tipped him a buck since he did not stink like most people playing with a hat in front of them for tips.
The security guard at my TJ's would have made the musician move along, even if he was better than Hendrix, and even if he had been hired by management..

I've had this conversation before w/others and some do. Personally, when I speak of "classic" I am referring to movies from say mid 60s and prior specifically movies from the 30s, 40s & 50s. I'm always disappointed and annoyed when TCM shows movies from the 70s and 80s.
I know you are new, but you might be interested to know that there have been countless threads, and hundreds of posts over the years discussing this very subject.

It must be 'The Average White Band', which is somewhat integrated. They have added and dropped several members over the years. They toured in my state of Connecticut just last year. Here is a clip that you might think of as improbable. It's 'The Average White Band' appearing on "Soul Train" in the seventies.
Most referred to them as AWB. Your turn.

I'll go with Tony Franciosa.
I think he admits that he was a bit of a terror on set, and blamed it on getting famous too young.
Which resulted in him often not getting parts from then on, in spite of his looks, charm and altogether fetching personality on screen.
Just think what he would have been like if he had gotten REALLY famous.

Here's your question repeated- but I'm still shaking my head that you didn't know about Sally Field and Burt
He apparently liked her, he really liked her....
OK, this successful largely white band, with Scottish roots, recorded squarely in the soul r&b genre. Name of band?
-
Just saw entire item at the heading of these "message boards" & R. 0sborne deicating this month
to a former TCM-ITE on here by name of Kyle Kersten (aka: hlydwdjk) who also recalls him on here-(I only remember his handle & seeing it a lot on here, but what was it's meaning, for any that know?)
I never corresponded w/him, but he did a running topic "In Hollywood" what was it entirely about as well?
THANK YOU
So RO knew Kyle very well? Just what exactly was the nature of Kyle's involvement with TCM and classic film? Izcutter, are you reading this?

Those are the 2, Dinah Shore and Burt Reynolds. They had a a very long relationship, 6 years. there was a 20 year difference in their ages. Their relationship was in the news alot. According to both they were very much in love. Sally and Burt's relationship also got a lot of press as did his failed marriage to Loni Anderson. It seems Burt's romances with Dinah and Sally meant the most to him. Good work, your thread DGF
Sally who?.......This successful largely white band had Scottish roots, yet their music was squarely in the soul r&b genre. Name of band?
-
He wanted to marry her and have children with her, she refused.
How about Burt Reynolds and Dinah Shore?

Where & what cable company has "The Decades Channel?"
THANK YOU
I have Comcast, which added it several months ago. Many people on these boards get it. "The Doris Day Show", which was shown wall-to-wall two weekends ago, was heavily discussed on these boards.

No, actually, word is the guards at the Philly Trader Joe's were all sent over to the Costco in Cherry Hill for a week and so they can check off the things you buy there on the receipt as you walk out. But this is only a temporary assignment.
(...and so look for 'em to be back hasslin' you by around the 18th of this month)
Security guards have always been my least favorite occupational group.

The woman was older than the man
John Travolta and Diana Hyland? (maybe not well-known enough)

Can a girl from Salina, Kansas find happiness in San Francisco?
If she plays her cards right, any girl that looks like that can find happiness anywhere.

This is a topic that's well known-(by those cited below) & well-known/cross-referenced,etc & some listed by now, are already well-known for being either among "The Most Hated & or Difficult Stars"
& not just of "Hollywoods Glorious Golden Age/Studio-System"-(circa 1925 to 1960) & or recent & current era. & not just "Gossip' of which I hate, BIG-TIME!
Tallulah Bankhead (l903-l968)-(she's even part of Hollywood lore), *Wallace Beery-(l885-l949-(very well documented by many in that glorious era)-(P.S. & to someone who may have also heard of this item, online & even in a few books, in recent years only. *Beery, has recently been rumored to be involved in the beating death of: Ted Healy-(l896-l937) I don't know why, because all insist he started a brawl w/two sailors inside the bar & it went out into an alley?
& Ted Healy, well-known to be loaded most of the time & Shemp Howard-(l895-l955) of "The Three Stooges" really had the biggest problems w/Healy, especially when they were gonna' to Hollywood, from the stage in 1933. Many cite this was the main reason as to why Shemp left the trio & younger brother Curly-(l903-52) took his place? At any rate, Healy was always said to be a problem while working on the rew flix he did make.
*Brian Donlevy-(l898-l973)-(especially during shooting of 1939's great "Beau Geste"-(in which he deservedly earned his sole *Oscar nod), Joe Besser-(l907-88)-(even his fellow "Stooges' Moe & Larry had problems w/him. Unfortunately Besser was the only one present when they got their "WOF-STAR" in 1988), Constance-(& not to be confused with sister Joan) Bennett, Otto Preminger, Erich Von Stroheim-(l885-l957), Gloria Swanson-(l893-l983), Mae West-(l893-l980) & W.C. Fields-(l879-l946), Diana Ross-(l942-), Pernell Roberts-(l929-)-(even refusaed once to have his picture taken for a "TV Guide cover" unless, he was photographed alone & without "Bonanza" co-stars: Lorne Greene, Michael Landon & Dick Blocker), & even my top #2 Idols & Heroes: *"The Great: Spencer Tracy"-(l900-67) and *"Chairman of the Board: Frank Sinatra'-(l9l5-98) have detractors!
Also, in recent years> Shelley Long-(l949-)-(just ask "Cheers" co-star Woody Harrelson, for starters), Teri Hatcher-(though a stunningly "Beautiful Lady!"), *"The Great Kate, as in Hepburn"-(l907-2003)-(has a few detractors in her day that worked w/her, though nowhere in same league as a Bankhead & others)
& who recalls that great "Pvt. screenings" interview with: Mickey Rooney-(l920-94)? Where Mr. 0sborne was a bit taken' back as "The Mick" told the story of him vs. director Roy Rowland, while filming a 1947 boxing drama. & apparently, Rowland started the rumor of Rooney also being "Difficult"
Who knows, when it's only 1 or even 2 reports though?
Please chime-in & mostly about that ongoing story of *Wally Beery?
THANK YOU!

I think a few have touched on this, the short-lived tv show "The Abbott & Costello Show" (l952-54)
Who remembers this marvelous little show?
It also starred Sidney Fields-(one of the duo's vaudeville people)
Even the obnoxious Joe Besser appeared on it once in awhile
But, it's rarely on thesedays, anywhere? It always used to be on, somewhere on cable, but not anymore
(P.S. & didn't TCM itself, have it on awhile ago?)
The Decades channel showed nothing but episodes of this show, all weekend, a couple weeks ago.

Let's take a look at the numbers:
First album--Triple Platinum
Second album--Platinum
Third album--Gold
Fourth album--Neither
Pretty par for the course for many bands.
A middling band would "kill" for these results.

Thank you, shutoo.

His was such a shame because he was viciously railroaded by a bunch of opportunistic wannabes and politicians looking to clamp down on sinful Hollywood as a means to cover up their own ineptitude at their jobs. I guess much hasn't changed in that respect.
Murder--bad publicity. Sex crimes---bad publicity. Drugs and adultery---good publicity.

I question your sources.
Only to their fans.
Which are not many, relatively speaking.
They are one of the most popular post-2000 alternative rock bands.

Milland proved he could handle a serious, meaty role. Why was he given so few of them after THE LOST WEEKEND?

World that be the same man who hassles you at Trader Joe's???
Incidentally, the last two times I went to Trader's Joe's, there were no security guards. Did management finally wise up?
Memorial Day and NO Vietnam movies
in General Discussions

But most Americans supported the Korean "police action". Not true of Vietnam. So films about Vietnam are very controversial, and that's why the TCM suits may stay away from them.
