    Bad Movie Descriptions of the Golden Era

    Yep, had TV Guide in the 1970s with these basic plot lines. But hey, I watched any old crap back then so it didn't much matter about the description. If it was a movie I'd watch it regardless, not necessarily right to the end though. Watched a ton of different film genres that I may not have...

    I see someone has been shopping in Karstadt again! :) I like the nice engine turned face and inside cover on your watch.

    I picked up this miniature painting in a thrift store in town recently. The owner didn't know anything about it or whether it was a copy but it looked right to me so I bought it for £50 / $65. Once I got home I took it out of the frame and it is a real miniature and it is painted on either bone...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Yeah, I know what you mean. I still can't get over seeing Odo (Rene Auberjonois) in Frasier, sitting on a desk naked except for Roz's bathrobe. The look on Frasier's face, the look on my face! :)

    Thanks. Yep, I've lived here for over thirty years now. Two photos of the start of Summer in the Highlands.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I have been watching a rerun of an old TV show called the Invisible Man. It was made in the late 1950s and appears to take on many of the political events of the Cold War period. One show saw the Invisible Man, the scientist Dr. Peter Brady, help a soviet writer escape the Soviet frontier border...

    Your favorite movie quotes

    I always liked the scene in the neo-noir film Blade Runner when, having saved Deckard, the replicant Roy finally says "Time to die" and in doing so releases the white dove that he was holding. As it flies off into the dark rain Gaff turns up and says to Deckard, who is an implied replicant...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    There were several RAF bases in the Middle East, mostly in Iraq, some in Egypt and Israel. This sign looks more modern, so probably from one of the bases in Qatar, Aden or Yemen or perhaps from the Gulf Wars.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Not just e-sellers. I still remember the good ol' days where you had ads in comics and magazines that bore absolutely no resemblance to what you actually received if you were dumb enough to send off for them. One I got caught out on were the Sea Monkey little folk you could make friends with...

    Name the Actor...

    Those moon pictures were very popular back then. My generation also have a iconic Paper Moon! Tatum and Ryan O'Neal in the film that really introduced me to the Depression years.

    Quality, leather briefcases & luggage

    Hi. It is a nice vintage briefcase. I've weighed it and it is about .25 Kg / .5 lb (a quarter of a Kg / half a pound in weight for those who don't do decimal points), so not heavy. As to being practical, I guess not really for modern office use. While it is perfectly adequate for carrying...
