Yep Tom, as you probably know, TCM has been running the Don Juan trailer a lot recently, and because of our last exchange about this film a few months back and how we both raved about it, everytime I see that trailer I think of you...up there above the 49th and freezin' your butt off this time o' year! (...sorry, couldn't resist that last part)

I wasn't previously aware of that website, but thank you for turnin' me on to it. Yeah, there's some really cool stuff there, alright. And yep, that Apollo is VERY nice, though I have to admit I was also previously unaware of these beautiful Italo-Amercan hybrids, of which of course the names of DeTomaso and Iso Grifo and Bizzarrini usually come to mind. I also liked that '74 Alfa GTV and the'58 Corvette racer in that link.

LOL I'm gonna have to assume here that the last one mentioned isn't the one starring Lee Marvin, but the little remembered sequel of a certain Clifton Webb film and that's about a large family that has to go a whole week without running water to their home because of a water main break down the street, RIGHT?!

Was that a Tommy Chong line, Sans?

I always liked the scene in Captains Courageous where Spencer Tracy as Manuel sings "Yeah Ho, Little Fish" accompanied by his hurdy-gurdy.

That's funny. I don't see many of those guys who wear their little baseball caps backward ridin' around in wheelchairs?!

Yep, I have to admit that the Public Transportation systems back east were just "a little" better than anything we had in L.A., and which were delayed in construction for many years in L.A. because of the everpresent "NIMBY" attitudes out there. (...and which because of those delays in construction has made that freakin' 405 Freeway AND most of Greater L.A. and ESPECIALLY the Westside area the congested transit mess that it has become...and maybe THE primary reason I now reside in beautiful Sedona AZ)

Yeah, well, except here in Arizona, where that SB1070 thing seems all the rage lately!

Oh the wages of being born and bred in a large east coast metropolitan city instead of sunny and car crazy SoCal, huh finance?! (...though I believe you wanted to post this reply in the "Anti-Gaining Interest" thread presently also going on, and where some of us have sidetracked that thread by somehow getting into a conversation of automobiles)

Well, I'm certainly NOT gonna start any "Who's on First" routine with ya here then. (...'cause not ONLY has THAT routine been done to death, BUT I know how confused I'd get by the end of it TOO...yeah, even more confused than I normally am!!!)

>I'll help you out. I am hereby doing a post that says nothing at all, just to keep this thread ahead of the other thread. ....and this would be different from your normal practice around here how exactly??? LOL (...sorry finance, I just couldn't resist that one, and really didn't mean it...your setup was just too enticing to pass up, that's all!)

Yep, that's kinda what I thought you were referring to. However, I think you might agree that a C- or D-Type(and even replicas of those) would draw any attention away from the much more commonplace E-Type, right?!

Nothin' "sacrilegious" about a Beck 550 Spyder, my friend, though you might have been referring more to my thought that my 550 would draw more attention than an E-type would. However, if you were in fact referring to the idea that all replicas are in any way "sacrilege", then you may not know this, but these Beck 550s aren't based on some rear-engined VW pan like the replica 356 cars are(not that those aren't kind of cool too), but are mid-engined cars built around the tube-chassis design and body design of the originals and now million and in some cases multi-million dollar cars. (...however, just as with a certain young actor who lost his life in one of the original 550s on Sept.30th, 1955, you do NOT ever want to take on a Ford sedan or any other make of full-size cars head on and going the opposite direction in this car, as you would most likely end up with the same fate as the aforementioned young actor!)

BINGO!!! Nice work! Lynn Cartwright was 65 y/o in that still from "ALOTO", and was still one beautiful lady, wouldn't ya say?! Well, I always thought so, anyway. Btw, she was married to actor/screenwriter Leo Gordon here for 50 years and until his death in 2000. (...and they say those Tinseltown marriages never last)

You have the right movie, but not the correct actress, heuriger. Nope, it's not Miss Darrow, but another sultry brunette from that cult/kitsch classic, who actually did scant work for many years, but toward the end of her life had a memorable role in a hit '90s movie playing an older version of the lead character.

Close, I'd say heuriger my friend, but take another look at Steven's face on that album cover, and then watch his performance of his "On And On" hit song(I always liked that one) on the old "Midnight Special" show... ...and then tell me if he doesn't actually look a lot more like comic actor Adam Sandler... ...than he does our Ben M.

Sorry slayton, but heuriger has it right again. Yep, that's Yvonne, alright....and one of the first actresses I recall having a major crush on as a kid. Okay, and now the next one might be a little harder... In her younger years... (the set, the costume and the props might help you) And in her later years...

Yep heuriger, you've got it. Now, how about... ? Edited by: Dargo2 on Jan 25, 2013 10:43 PM

"We're on a mission from God!"

Yeah, come to think of it, that pic did also look a lot like Richard Thomas too.

Okay Kid, I have one for you...and/or anyone else for that matter.

Kevin Spacey

Hmmm...now I could be wrong here, Fred, but I'm gonna guess that the dude on the left once prematurely ended a production of "Our American Cousin" at Ford's Theatre in the year 1865. (...so, am I right?)

>Comes with a free breakfast.. LOL Good retort, Kid!

Sorry for the slight sidetracking to follow here folks, BUT everytime I watch Ciannelli in his "KILL! KILL! KILL!" role as the Thugee guru in Gunga Din, I always wonder if that's who Don Rickles was channeling when he played the renegade Indian character of Bald Eagle in "F-Troop"?!!! LOL You folks remember that, don't ya?! Well, If not, then here ya go... http://www.spike.com/video-clips/h6xggf/f-troop-happy-birthday-bald-eagle
