"We can't ignore the rest of the world. We're the only stabalizing influence in the country."

WAG here ....

"A River Runs Through It"?????

Good guess, but incorrect...so here's a little more...

"Now is the time to think of only one thing. That which I was born for."

I was so saddened to hear the Beaver was sniped in Da-Nang....

"Anyone can be a fisherman in May."

up front and outloud, I say the "corpulent" line was spoken by Charles Laughton...had to be Spartacus with Kirk Douglas.

Charles Laughton was a very fine and interesting "corpulent" actor...never a "thin" performance.

It's an official picture from the CCP...Cleavage Checkpoint Primate

checking which of her apparent cleavages is the real deal...

"ok...cough..."

correcto

Is there a statute of limitations on these? or is everyone at the ROCK?

"I may be a king, but I'm a WRESTLER first."

"Live free."

"Die well."

"Live free."

"Rule well."

"Let me tell you, after a long day of looting and pillaging, there is no greater city than Gomorrah...except maybe Sodom."

"...Roy Hobbs, the best there ever was in the game."

Batter up!

"Live free."

"Die well."

"Live free."

"Rule well."

ahem...

"I may be a king, but I'm a wrestler first."

"I coulda been better. I coulda broke every record in the book...and then when I walked down the street people would've looked and said..."

I'm going to give it you, George, just because you also knew a real funny parody!

It was "To Have and Have Not"

Here's the steamy scene. (Bacall was only 19!)

I have a question....does anyone else have trouble accessing this thread?

When I click on this thread, it rarely takes me to the last entry...it goes as far

as the video link from the Bogart/Bacall movie...

I try to open the thread from the beginning, try to open it from the last post, and even tried to open it from my own profile...but still there seems to be a glitch.

I'm posting this in the Flick thread...lol...which I probably won't be able to access...so if you gots answers,

leave me a message, ok?

"My life didn't turn out the way I expected it."

Island Girl?

What a bunch of Bull Durham.

here's some dynamite for the thread tracks...

"Right here, Harv..."was quote long-time attributed to the Chicago BozoTV show, circa Bob Bell as Bozo,

so that might have been a bit obscure for folks outside the Windy City's perameters, even tho WGN is a "super-station" now.

Chicago's "Bozo's Circus is On the Air!" TV show is the only one that aired more than a couple years according to

its history.

There were many clownies in different places over the years; a most durable, if not most noteable, was Chicago's

Bob Bell, but he was succeeded by a couple after he retired. Bell was not the first Bozo (the first was Pinto Colvig,

the same cartoon character voice actor who played Disney's Goofy and Dopey). Larry Harmon was the guy who sky-rocketed

the whole marketing angle of Mr. B and was (internationally) the most connected (legally) to the big-shoed prankster.

In the 60s (pre-Woodstock era)a inner-city black kid looked to the camera when B asked if he had anything to say to the at-home viewers.

This was a regular part of the ring master-clown-audience banter (in this case Ringmaster Ned (Locke)& Bozo Bob Bell).

The kid had something to say to his brother, Harvey. He pointed to his crotch and said, "Right here, Harv..." to which the clown

countered, "That's a Bozo no-no." lolololololol

This retort was ubiquitous thruout Chicago and certainly (maybe especially) in my parochial grade school (St. Linus <2nd Pope, doncha know>).

The nuns decreed the name "Harvey" verboten...lol...you can't make this stuff up.

This much more is true, tho...the popularized variations of "cram it, clown" and such have peppered everything from Carson, The Second City stage, and hugely in The Simpsons with Crusty the Clown.

Lotsa Bozos in the Naked City...but this is the best of them. Cram it, Ronald. (Did Ronald McDonald ever have a TV show? :)

ahem

yes, yes...The Brady Bunch...

booomp...

ixnay on the CSI guess

...like so many good things this show emanated from The Windy City but was seen all over the country...

"...it's time for the grand prize game..."

"Right here, Harv..."

McHale's Navy?

It was the "Fuji" that jogged the thinker....but I gotta tell you, this is really scary to have this junk

lodged in there...lol.

I can actually envision the characters saying this stuff and the theme music playing in my head...ouch.

tupos...lol

I agree!

If you want to watch a real treat, goggle Raggmopp and watch the orginal (terrific) wondergroup, The Treniers, perform the song.

I would post it here, but the cyber-gene alludes me. :)
