    Myths of the Golden Era -- Exploded!

    Exactly right. I'm not in the least racist, but even though I try my best not to, sometimes I admit that I can be a bit of a culturalist. I respect the culture of others, but have little tolerance for people who cultivate the modern "ghetto", or "g thang" pseudo-culture here in the US, be they...

    A Cultural Wrinkle

    I iron and starch my dress shirts, but casual, I just take them out of the drier while still hot and they don't crease

    Staged TV

    I freely admit I watched "American Pickers"............which is completely set-up, but I have huge gaps in my knowledge of Americana for the period 1950-1970 and AP was more a source of education than entertainment

    A Question about Typewriter Ribbons

    Thanks! I knew you'd be "in the know". I saw one recently for $150, and one online http://mytypewriter.com/coronano31906.aspx for $650 and all kinds of prices on that auction website. I'll offer the seller $75 and start there, since it's pristine, and the blue color matches my cobalt table

    Staged TV

    Sadly, until viewers stop watching, or go off the radar (I have ditched my cable completely, and watch all my shows via streaming), it's not likely to change anytime soon

    Staged TV

    I believe that all of the "reality" shows are staged, and even scripted. It's a way to get amateur actors for a production without having to pay them.
