    Berets, Anyone?

    I have two "souvenir" unworn berets ; a black one with KJAZ in gold script, and a blue FFR ( French national rugby team) The KJAZ was bought along with other items sold during a fund raising drive in 1994 to keep the nation's premier jazz station on the air...we failed And the Le Bleu was bought...

    Getting People Into Movie Theatres

    The last time I went to a cinema on Market street (Al Pacino's "Cruising" 1980) the "ushers" were dressed in special ops fatigues and combat boots. No...they weren't auditioning for a Village People's talent search. They searched and patted down EVERYBODY...Note; after they had already paid. I...

    Autumnal Thoughts........

    Used to really love it! Not so much anymore... It doesn't cool off here until the second or third week of November now (it's the reason we have an epidemic of Australian apple moths). Which means half of the football season is already over, who wants to watch football when it's 80%? And, it...

    Spectator Shoes

    I hear you. But the way I understand "a gentleman's guide to dressing" is to have the appropriate dress, and "undress" for every event in one's repertoire. It would be, among other things, inappropriate to fling them on to roll out the recycle bins, even though that may look like a sporting...

    Any remember the Matinee at the Bijou PBS series?

    Yes, that's right. They filmed some actors getting out of a vintage auto, in front of a cinema in B&W.

    Spectator Shoes

    Isn't that just the way things happen? After yearning for a pair of spectator/correspondents to wear to all the birthday parties and all the Sunday afternoon church socials that kept coming up, AND missing out every time I found some that i liked. Then after finally scoring a pair of Paul...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    "Barney MIller" and "Bob Newhart" were way over my head as a kid, but I never missed the opportunity to listen to the opening theme songs of both...then, I would change the channel.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    For me, none have been better than "Empire" And, come to think of it, I'm in no hurry to SEE "Awakens"

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I love "The Sorcerer" It just recently came up in conversation, about which films i saw in 1977 that I preferred more than "Star Wars" Although I really liked Episode IV, I liked "The Sorcerer" and "A Bridge Too Far" more. After watching it again, not too long ago; I have to get one or two of...
