The Era -- Day By Day
FL has been very slow for me all day today. There were a couple of brief windows when it worked fast, but otherwise, it's taken forever for a page to load. It's causing me, and I'm sure others, to spend less time here as I can't lose that much time to this site. I'm sure the bartenders are...- Fading Fast

The Era -- Day By Day
It's interesting, as of the three boys - Harold, Skeezix and Terry - no one has had more opportunities to be "initiated" into adulthood than Terry, but he keeps passing. I'll bet, though, Caniff has a plan. Maybe Grett Murmur will get to do the honors. My personal preference is that Hu Shee...- Fading Fast

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
A Bedtime Story from 1933 with Maurice Chevalier, Helen Twelvetrees and Edward Everett Horton A Bedtime Story is not quite a romcom, not quite a musical and not quite a drama, but instead, it is really a lighthearted fairytale with almost enough charm to overcome its thin story and choppy...- Fading Fast

The site froze up twice on me, which is my limit as I have to also earn a living, but will note "Grett Murmur" is a great name. God love Caniff. How jealous must the other cartoonists be that he is the only one who still gets the old-sized block of space?- Fading Fast

Just checking in to see what others are experiencing, as after a decent evening and early morning of the site working pretty well, I've been getting a lot of slowdown and freezing up of the FL site all afternoon (east coast time). Are others getting that too?- Fading Fast

Sally's just not ready to see the truth. Owen: "If you'd like, I'll hold the cash and checks and you can bring the bag over." Everyone at once: "No! Umm, we'll take care of it, you just talk to the potential buyers." (Poor Mickey, eighty-plus years later and jerks like us are still making...- Fading Fast

Letter from an Unknown Woman from 1948 with Joan Fontaine and Louis Jourdan In the Romantic Era, love was a transcendental experience, a force beyond reason and logic. While a few embers of that idea burn today, as most people still marry for love, love now is rationalized. We use apps to...- Fading Fast

God bless ya, Lizzie, for getting all this posted today. I was getting error messages that the FL website couldn't be found until just a bit ago, which is the first time in this tech event, I got that message.- Fading Fast

To be fair and to correct the error I made in my prior post, it was working okay earlier in the morning. Then, as I was reading your Day-by-Day posts and tried to respond (which was after 10am), it just kept freezing up on me, so I gave up. Yesterday was a bit slow, but I was able to respond...- Fading Fast

Touching on your point, Ms Loren starred in "Two Women," an intense movie about the end of the war in Italy. Comments here: #30,675 Ms. Lollabrigida also starred in a movie that touched on the end of WWII, but her picture is a much lighter affair, "Bouna Sera, Mrs. Campbell,"...- Fading Fast

Considering that it took me five minutes to get to this page, click one like and (estimating) post this brief comment, it looks like Fedora Lounge's tech problem that was better this morning has not been solved for good.- Fading Fast

That's fantastic color that helps explain a lot. Gray has never struck me as a hard-core 1940s Republican. Like you, Lizzie, I was looking forward to where the story was going. The loss of Nick Gatt was a shame as he was one of cartoon land's most-real and most-interesting 1940s characters...- Fading Fast

The postal worker who lost his family in the train wreck and then came home and took his life is beyond sad.

Mr. Buddwing from 1966 with James Garner, Suzanne Pleshette, Jean Simmons, Angela Lansbury and Katherine Ross Some movies improve with multiple viewings, especially if they are the type of picture whose good good parts stand out more and flaws fade a bit each subsequent time you see it.
