What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
'Children Of Huang Shi' An interesting view of a warfront rarely seen in film; the Japanese invasion/occupation of China, including scenes of the 'rape of Nanking'. The story is based on fact regarding the life of Englishman George A. Hogg during his short but adventurous stay in pre-WWII...- Dixon Cannon

Vintage Sunglasses
My first pair of wire rimmed glasses came my senior year in High School in '71. I was too timid for John Lennon specs at the time so I opted for conservative RayBan aviator (rectangular frames), not unlike what newsman Frank McGee wore at the time. I had horrible vision from age twelve on...- Dixon Cannon

Canvas Sports Shoes
I'm currently a Converse 'Jack Purcell' wearer. I bought several pair in my size before they became so scarce. Recently I bought the French Spring Court Trainers that are making a wide come-back. These are the 'Abbey Road' plimsols that John Lennon wore on the famous LP cover. You don't...- Dixon Cannon

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
Just finally got around to seeing the DVD of 'Miracle At St. Anna's'. Wow! I was very impressed! In fact we were enraptured and spellbound through the entire film. Keeping in mind that the story is a screenplay based on a novel, it was a well told tale. The acting was first rate and all of...- Dixon Cannon

Actors Whose Careers Were Not Fully Realized
I always thought too, that Vic Morrow's career was never fully realized. His role in 'Blackboard Jungle' should have launched his career into superstardom. Unfortunately, 'Combat!' typecast him and he never regained his stride and full potential. Old episodes of 'Combat!' though do show his...- Dixon Cannon

Cleaning a white linen suit...
First: Use a better digital camera - 10mp or more Second: Use photoshop to clone the clean white areas and paste them in to the dirty areas. Third: Repost the pictures through PhotoBucket onto the FL Viola! Old white suite looks clean and new! lol...- Dixon Cannon

"Telegram" style emails
I've saved a blank telegraph sheet as stationary in my email program. If I wish to send a "telegram", I pull up that piece of stationary, fill in all the blanks, write my message (stop). Off goes the email/telegram - suitable for printing! By the way, the last time I actually sent a real...- Dixon Cannon

1957-1965 (or 1963)
Ahhh....... but it all changed and brightened that February night in 1964 when those four lads hit the stage on the Ed Sullivan Show. To me it seemed as if a new era had dawned and that date marked the end of the "post-war" period and the beginning of something completely new, where youth...- Dixon Cannon

Khakis, Leather Jacket and Hat
I agree! Stuff 'em! I wear mine Khaki/Leather combo (when it's cool enough!) and if anybody says anything "Indy", I act puzzled and respond "Indiana Jones!? Can you say Howard Hughes!" We all know they secretly admire our sense of style, courage and self-confidence anyway, right? Right...- Dixon Cannon

Frock coats
Well, it's a done deal... I was in Liverpool, Merseyside, England last week and visited the shop on Matthew Street to order my Frock Coat. I got remeasured and put my money down. It should be completed by August I'm told due to a shortage of the proper material - which is fine here as it is...- Dixon Cannon
