Hi all! I've been away so long I feel like a newbie. So what's up???? All of you fill me in on what's being talked about, argues about or asking about. Bring me up to date will you??? Thanks:) Sue

I don't know what you all think of this new style of prgramming but it is totally boring to me. To take a whole day and turn it into a one theme marathon stinks. Where did the "classic" go??? I sent a message to TCM Programmer and complained about this. All my good films have been put back into the vault in favor of no brain movies which you know the end of by the second word. Let me know what you all think.

Thank you one and all for your info. I can now rest in peace. Yes, it has been a long time since I was active on the boards. Much has changed since then and I am still busy trying to find my way around. Glad to see all us "old faces" AND DO WELCOME THE NEW. gLAD TO SEE mONGO IS STILL WITH US. wE'D BE IN A MESS IF WE DIDN'T HAVE HIM AND (BARTLETT). Please excuse my typing--I have one finger that just loves the caps lock key! HA! LOVE TO ALL sUE

Does anyone know the words to the song, Annie Laurie? I have to get the tune out of my head. There was a Ronald Reagon movie that also starred Eddie Albert and another guy whose name I didn't get. They are seniors at West Point and get into all kinds of mischief. Eddie Albert is secretely married and his wife gets pregnant-a booboo at the Point and all three are always after the girls especially the commandant's daughter. It also has to do with Eddie Albert as a pitcher and passing finals and doing penalty march.Can anyone tell me the name of that movie? Thank you. Sue

Gary Cooper, Jimmy Stewart, Charles Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton, Ginger Rogers, Kathryn Hepburn, Judy Garland, Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, John Wayne, William Powell, Myrna Loy, Claudette Colbert, Marlene Dietrich, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Barbara Stanwyck, Loretta Young. There's more but these are the few my tired brain can come up with. Sue

My guilty pleasure is Casablanca. I could watch that one 24/7. Another is Goodby Mr. Chips with Greer Garson. One more is My Man Godfrey. There are more but these are at the top. Sue

No, it's probably 81 minutes, but then TCM puts in a lot of fillers till the next movie is shown. Check me out and see for yourself. Sue

Helen--it sounded just fine, my dear. I'm always in favor of the Kennedy Center Honors. It's very distinguished to be chosen for this and I'm sure all who were chosen deserved the recognition. Sue

Larry--just read your remembrances about Martha Raye. Excellent! It showed me quite distinctly that she was far more than a comic with a big mouth. I always enjoyed watching her do her thing and she was one unique lady. Don't ever think I'll forget her. It's sad that her life was so filled with negative happenings. Keep those memories coming, dear friend, as they add a lot to these boards. Thank you. Sue

OK lux0786--you're doing it to me, too! What does ROTFLMAO mean????? Sue

Wish I could have some congenital wealth..... Sue

I am truly glad to see that some of the people of Hollywood are showing their best sides. It makes me hope that when they mature a little, they will turn out to be the great moviestars we are all looking for. And I agree, less on their personal sides-more on their professional sides. This would calm things down a lot. Sue

OK, harlow1085-you're doing it to me like everone else has.... What does TTYL mean? I'll learn all these abbreviations even if I have to live to be an old, old woman! :) Sue

Hi Mongo! Have been off the boards for the week volunteering for hurricane katrina and New Orleans, but things have calmed down a bit so came back here to see what was going on. Thanks for the info on Thelma. I have a list going for IMDB so will add her to it. Take care. :) Sue

Come on, people. I know you also have things to say about Kate, so do it, already! Sue
