  1. >I'd say that that shot of Ryan O'Neal also makes him look like Tom Berringer. Here ya go, VX. Just for you... And yeah, I think you're on to somethin' here. (...though then again, maybe ALL "puffy-lookin'" older white guys who maybe eat too many donuts look like this, EH?!)
  2. Nope twinkeee, I'm pretty sure that that's that dame...err...I mean DAME Diana Rigg, again.
  3. Maybe Swithin, but I have a feeling "folksy-ness" has always played into the American electorate's consciousness. I mean, I can't image one of our highest "rated" Presidents, one Mr. Andrew Jackson, ever giving a stirring speech that the fellows at Webster's, let alone at Oxford, would have ever found total approval of. (...saaay...did I just end a sentence with a preposition there???)
  4. Yeah, that's what I figured. (...though I DO have to admit your joke gave me the..ahem.."Ho-Hos" and ha-ha's a bit, anyway)
  5. Now c'mon here, MissW! YOU know this ..ahem.."Ding Dong" of a scenario of yours here hasn't got a..ahem.."Snowballs" chance in you-know-where of being true, now don't ya??? (...yep sorry, but I have to..ahem.."Wonder" where you come up with this sorta stuff sometimes, Lady!)
  6. Maybe not the same kind of thing here, as this instance of course sounds more accidental than anything else, BUT this brought to my mind an incident that happened back in the mid-to-late 60s in L.A. and when I remember one movie being started but during the broadcast and halfway through, was then replaced with another movie entirely. It was during one those TV "Afternoon Movie Matinees", and the first film shown was Joseph Mankiewicz's No Way Out, the racially-charged 1950 thriller starring Richard Widmark, Linda Darnell, Stephen McNally and Sydney Poitier. Yeah, the one where Widmark's character calls Poitier character every name in that ugly ol' book. Well, I was really starting to get into this one(I'm about 14 or 15 at the time as I recall), but after a commercial break at around the halfway point in it, the host of the program appeared and said because their station had receieved so many calls of complaint and even a few threats, the channel was going to suspend broadcasting the remaining of the film and would begin showing another film entirely....which they did. I can't recall what replaced it, but I'm sure it was something much more lighthearted in tone. (...which of course would've been pretty easy to find in their station's film library, I'm sure!)

  7. Man! You guys are just bound and determined to get Michael the Admin to "nuke(cu-lar)" this here thread, AREN'T ya???!!! LOL
  8. I don't know, Max. I'm just seein' two older guys who maybe eat too many donuts, and with the same hairline...with the one on the left I hear having been 'surgically enhanced'. Oh, AND with the guy on the left actually doing something with the talent he was given, while the guy on the right throwin' HIS talent away at every turn because of his apparent need to 'self-medicate'...WHICH the moron handed down to his children!!!! (...nah, actually at THIS stage of their lives, I suppose there's a bit of a resemblence there...however, considering Shatner is 10 years older than O'Neal, one can see what drug abuse can do to a guy, huh?!...sorry, but I ALWAYS have state what a freakin' LOSER O'Neal is whenever I can, and you've just supplied me with yet another opportunity here, THAT'S all!!!) LOL Edited by: Dargo2 on Feb 9, 2013 3:05 PM
  9. I don't think we should go there on this thread, ol' buddy. 'Cause ya KNOW where THAT kinda discussion might lead to, RIGHT?! (...let us just say that I find your supposition not out of the realm of possibilites)
  10. Well, there are a lot of "6's and "7"s in that ranking graph, and so I'd say on average it would probably fall around there. However, I think you DO make a valid point as to the "Intellect Factor" among all the POTUSs ever. (...but as you know, our country has seldom valued the "intellectual type"...unless of course they can ALSO consistantly hit for average and/or move the runner into scoring position whenever called upon to do so, and/or any other feats of athleticism!)
  11. Not too sure about that, finance. Ya see, just about every ranking shown for Wilson on this graph located on this Wiki page, shows him anywhere between the 4th and 11th "Best", and this considered by a number of different sources. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_rankings_of_Presidents_of_the_United_States
  12. Yep, Rich got it right. That's Lawrence Montaigne, alright. (...but at least I got ONE person to say it was Nimoy, anyway...'cause I knew I would...yep, there sure is a good resemblence between the two of 'em...fake pointy ears or not!)
  13. Well, I really hate to further sidetrack this thread(yeah, like THAT'S ever stopped me before, HUH?! ) but speakin' o' Paul Winchell, maybe the best ventriloquist ever, but as a kid I too loved watchin' "Winchell-Mahoney Time"... Maybe all of you know this already, but unfortunately Metromedia Corp destroyed almost all the tapes of that program while in some apparent dispute with Paul Winchell over the syndication rights.
  14. Nice find, Fred. Nice voice ol' Woodrow had there. In fact, while he didn't have quite the same resonance, I thought I heard a bit of Alexander Scrourby's rich tones and phrasing in his voice. (...oh, and while listening to his words, I thought about how little things change sometimes, too)
  15. Ya know Joe, everytime you post one of these Sid Grauman pics like this one, I always wonder if Sid ever might've attended any Hollywood Halloween parties dressed up in a trenchcoat and a battered old top hat? (...'cause nobody to me EVER looked more like Harpo Marx than THAT guy!!!)
  16. According to Wiki: Dobie's two main antagonists were rich kids, Milton Armitage (Warren Beatty) and, after his departure, Milton's cousin, Chatsworth Osborne, Jr. (Steve Franken), both representing the wealth and popularity to which Dobie aspired. They both shared the same actress, Doris Packer, as their mother.
  17. As far as I've seen or at least have noticed KD, just on the main page. But ya have to rmember Pam here appears to be a newbie to the site, and so my guess is that when she first logged in, the ads were what caught her eye right off.
  18. Eeh! All these adverts don't bother me at all. Nope, 'cause ya never know when you're gonna wanna to OR need to... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjy8HqrcYys (...though I DO have to wonder if all these ads are makin' this website's message boards' response time SLOW AS FREAKIN' MOLASSES once again today???)
  19. >It's the grin and staring eyes expression that gives me the creeps. Well ccf, in VERONICA'S case, didn't ya mean to say "that staring eye" INSTEAD???
  20. Nope, sorry finance ol' boy. But, if as you said down below there that MovieLover11 and I were thrown off the Andrew Garfield/Andy Murray lookalike thing solely because of their mutual first names, THEN I say you and Geminigirl are being thrown off by the whole uniform thing John Kerr and David Petraeus only have in common there. 'CAUSE ya see, it ISN'T the ex-General THERE who looks like Kerr, but IS in fact the late Steve Franken HERE... ...and maybe best remembered as the snotty rich kid Chatsworth Osborne Jr on the old "Dobie Gillis" sitcom, who DOES!!! (...nnnnn-EAH...so THERE!!!)
  21. Ah! One of "Mudd's Women", eh KD?! Okay, just kinda sorta cheated here and looked it up, 'cause I only recalled Karen Steele's name of the three of 'em. It's...Susan Denberg.
  22. William Daniels (...and NOT the voice of what appears to be the '57 Ford Fairlane he's driving there...word is he had a strict personal rule that he'd ONLY ever do the voice of a Pontiac Trans Am..betcha didn't know that, did ya!)
