I loved his secretary, Peggy, and the fact that she had a child.  That really added a lot.

Hey Ellemeno, don't tell me we are going to get into a posting duel again!  I just got home from work
for the day, and see you are already at it.    Might add a couple here later myself, but have an appointment
with a Marshall Tucker concert later this evening.  One of my fav groups from the late 70's.

None of the members are original, and the last time I seen them was like eight years ago.  They play all the old
stuff from the late 70's; probably because their first four albums from that time went gold and some platinum.
That hasn't happened since.  So that is what people want to hear.

I did make an  slight edit to the Hawaii 5-0 opening theme back several pages, and watched that again,
and found it interesting that right after the clip where the dancer is shaking her ass, it flashes to like
the top of a hotel or something there in Hawaii, and the lights seem to spell out XXX.  God you gotta
love those subliminial messages in the old TV shows.

I  always liked the bloopers in Hawaii 5-0.  In particular, I can't recall how many times McGarrett (Jack Lord)
would run out of his office and jump in a two door Lincoln / Mercury automoblie (they always used all Ford products in
almost all the shots) and he would arrive at the crime scene, and the vehicle would have 4 doors.

At my young age then, I always just assumed he drove so fast, the car got stretched! ;D

Felix the Cat  I believe dates all the way back to movie houses in the 20's and 30's, but
I remember it as one of my favorite Sat morn cartoons

Felix the Cat

Dang, I think I knew that song before I knew how to talk!  That is a blastomatic from the pastomatic for sure.  Gotta go too.  More fun later.  :)

<Dear God, thank you for YouTube.>  :)
