SILENCE! You ninny! That does not compute. The original Lost In Space was not a sitcom. It was awesome science fiction. I was the only one who watched it as it was on against Batman and all my friends watched that. Now THAT was a sitcom.
Full disclosure: Penny was my Marcia Brady

As for Dr. Smith, never fear, he'll be here, there, whatever.

Crush! Kill! Destroy! I'm in. No way this can be as bad as that awful movie remake.

“Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms, and the moon is full and bright.”

The first movie line I memorized. Did you know it was changed from the original?

Out of all the horror films of my youth, it was years before I could watch the scene where Lon Chaney stands next to a tree and transforms into the Wolf Man. Scared the absolute bejeezus out of me.

Great article.

"The Projects." Wow - that's exactly what I thought when I read this. All this time I thought those hulking monstronsities were unique to my childhood in Buffalo. They were only torn down a few years back. They were everywhere? Big time social failure.

No mention of martinis? After I moved on from Gin & Squirt, I went with Gin & Vermouth. Then I found it was better if I just waved the vermouth cap over the glass. Today, in homage in Winston Churchill I just pour the gin and bow towards France.

Gordon's London Dry has been the #1 seller in the UK for years. Hendricks has been around awhile; a better "New American" would be The Botanist which is out of Islay, Scotland. Any alcohol from there deserves your attention.

And speaking of Gordon’s London Dry and the medicinal properties of gin:
Gin-Soaked Raisins­

It works.

I cannot argue with any of the above logic, although we're running out of time with James Cromwell. As for deeper reading - What’s the most untrustworthy animal? - That would be a human.

This seems to be a great book to have during a drinking game.

Could be updated or will be updated? Pretty much everyone in Maine knew this was coming. Senators were involved in getting it added. Judging by today's front page in the Portland Press Herald, guess no one really looked at it until after the announcement. . .

One could do a whole article on the Zucker brothers, Abrahams, and their Kentucky Fried Theater. Airplane! was their second movie collaboration; the first being The Kentucky Fried Movie­. Anyone remember that? The popcorn you're eating has been pissed in. Film at eleven.

Sadly, I could probably rank Airplane! only as high as #2. Not funnier than Groundhog Day.

OMG! You CAN'T have a Caesar salad without anchovies! The proper method is put 4-5 of those bad boys right on top of the salad. No one does that anymore; I wonder why? :)

Absent the above, a real Caesar dressing most definitely has anchovies in it. I can understand why no one would say anything, but if you're not allergic, had the dressing this way, and liked it - well that should tell you something about anchovies. YUM!

I always got kick out of Mary's answer to her mom's question "What's he doing down there?" In It's a Wonderful Life."

"He's in the parlor mother; making violent love to me."

"Well you tell him to stop! Sam Wainwright's going to call.

Timely. I'm supposed to be up in Randolph, ME smelting along the Kennebec River right now. Got a call this morning that an ice jam was heading downstream directly towards the smelt shacks and there was a mad scramble going on to get them off the river. Maybe next week. .
