    Cinematic Haunted Houses

    Some of the assorted Dracula castles that have been created over the years have been the most forboding and haunting to me. Maybe the one in Van Helsing was the darkest of all, though much was CGI.

    Is it just me ?

    And no matter how hung over Ruth, Marris and Mantle were they looked sharp when they took the field even if they may not have played their absolute best that day. It quit being a sport and became a business when the power and pressure of agents took over. Whereas they used to pay a player on...

    Photobucket problems...?

    Relative to the way computers need to be and hopefully some day will be, we are in the infancy of things now. Our feeble little keyboard and mouse driven devices are rinky dink at best performing cheezy feats with arcane software. Reagrdless of your OS or brand it's all a compromise in terms...

    Interesting haloween vintage story

    In the 50s our only tricks were to mark up windows with wax, usually the big windows on stores and parked cars. Not too naughty[huh]

    We've been getting that channel on DISH but I don't know if it's permanent or not since they have previews of different stations ongoing.[huh]

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Netflix provided Zodiac to view. Was not a taut thriller but more of a history of the whole thing. Long but not bad.

    NaNoWriMo

    Beside the couple hundred articles I've written, I also have 3 book length manuscripts. I write historical combat stuff mostly about WW II air combat. My articles have been published in now-defunct magazines and on a few websites of the same genre. The old search for a publisher for books is...

    Classic Arcade and Video Games

    Curious how many people have all time favorites that have never quite been eclipsed or even equalled. I used to review PC based combat simulation games and have the same feelings. And unfortuantely unless you have the space for old hardware the old stuff just doesn't run right on a new OS.:(...

    Photobucket problems...?

    Working OK for me too but I recognize the problem. A couple weeks ago the Lounge began running slow. And I found other sights not seeming to be at their max. Was getting all sorts of freaky error messages. I was checking my DSL connection and everything else. The FL server was...

    The Fastest Man in the World Jacket...

    Like the leather I was talking about elsewhere which isn't an A-2 but some commercial jacket http://www.nytstore.com/ProdDetail.aspx?prodId=2671 Look here and enlarge the image. In newsreel bits I've seen it seems to have a removable belt at the waist too. You can make out the loops in the...

    Golden Era "worst dressed" lists?

    I guess one of the reasons I never did, and don't today, read movie fan magazines or view anything about "stars" or actors on their personal time is that I don't want the illusion shattered. I realize they are people, nothing more, but since they portray often complex characters in sometimes...

    Historic Movie Palaces

    Here's a site that may interest some of you. I grew up in St. Louis where the majority of movie theaters were of ornate architecture and built as "theaters" not shoebox rooms to project films. I went to this one all the time. http://cinematreasures.org/theater/934/

    Historic Hot Rod Club Revived! est. 1936, reborn 2007.

    Mr Newport there are several variations on that theme with differences in what liquid is used to unfreeze a stuck engine. Very often they will I hear. It's always worth a try! Speak of "straight" engines, how about my straight 8?
