  1. Here's another show he appeared in that I believe Bluzeman is familiar with. Funny, how the memory works, isn't it? This one (like so many quality shows) was critically acclaimed but not successful commercially. Click <a href=http://mail.bluzecentral.net/~sudo/abn.wav><font color=red>HERE!</font></a> Now I'm getting a better time frame for shows Kathy and Abigail would have watched.

    He seemed to be just the nicest guy and wonder if he was that way in real life. I didn't think of him as a fine actor but at least two actresses name him as their favorite actor: Mariette Hartley and Loni Anderson, both having worked with him on "The Incredible Hulk" (1978).

    P.S. George, you're saying you have to wait for the entire download before your Windows Media Player starts playing? Yeah, if so, I can see where that would be aggravating. It should open and start playing nearly immediately if you're using Internet Explorer. Mozilla's Firefox DOES make you wait. But if you're using Windows Media player and Internet Explorer that shouldn't be happening. Maybe we can tinker with the settings. :)

    Actually, it's when Quicktime kicks in that I have to wait. WMP seems to bring things up immediately.

    And I think I watched ALL of Bill Bixby's shows.

  2. The only thing I find remarkable about Dawkins is that his views can still cause such controversy.

    What I read of him just seems so sensible...

    When you're arrogant and supercilious, you'll be controversial even when you're right. I haven't read any of Dawkins's stuff. I imagine he's less bilious on paper than in person.

  3. As a scientist and Christian, of course I dasagree with Dawkins. The sad fact is that if he's right, and God has nothing to do with the evolution of the universe, then he doesn't actually "believe" what he says, because every thought he has is simply a result of the positions and momenta of all the particles in the universe.

    An article about him in a recent Discover magazine referred to him as "Darwin's Bulldog." Reasonably accurate, I think.

  4. The jazz band I perform with also does a version of "Sunny Side of the Street," so I recognized it immediately. I don't remember "Durham Town," but it was pleasant.

    As for wav vs. mp3, I do have broadband, but even still, it takes more time to download those files than I really care to give. Especially when someone posts about five songs at once. This thread seems to have morphed into "Here are all my favorite songs." That's not necessarily a bad thing, it's just not what I found interesting and which attracted me to this thread.

  5. Sudo, I not only know this song, it's one of my favorite oldies. In fact, I posted some lyrics in the "Name That Tune" thread. I was impressed that Pirate recognized it, since I posted only part of the second verse!

    I'm glad you posted it as a wav file. I probably would have skipped it if it were another mp3 or m4a!
