    If you guys can find the BBC adaptation of Dylan Thomas' "A Child's Christmas In Wales." I highly recommend it!

    It's a Wonderful "Radio Program"

    Several years ago PBS showed a special program during the holiday season which was nothing more than actors recreating the original script for The Lux version of It's A Wonderful Life. I remember Tim Robbins was George and Joe Mantegna had a couple of roles... particularly memorable was his...

    My Favorite Husband

    :offtopic: Did we mention that when creating the pilot for the television series "I Love Lucy" Desi and Lucy also recorded a pilot for a radio show of the same name? They figured if the networks didn't pick up one, they might pick up the other!

    Listening to Serials

    Carlton E Morse did two adventure/mystery serials. "Adventures by Morse" and "I Love A Mystery." Some of the story lines only ran for three episodes, while others ran for ten. So in answering the question of how I listen to serials, whether all-at-once or one at a time... It really depends on...

    Room Dancing

    A million years ago at work, Van Morrison's "Moondance" came on the muzak and I grabbed a friend and we started dancing. It was rather quite amusing.

    Band of Brothers

    Yes. Beyond The Rhine was just published within the last year, I believe. It's a little shorter than the other three books, but a nice finish to the series.

    Band of Brothers

    Webster's book was pretty good. Another great one to look out for is "Beyond Band of Brothers: The War Memoirs of Major Dick Winters" by Dick Winters and Cole C. Kingseed. Also, Donald Burgett's books are well worth reading if you're interested the 101st Airborne.

    Band of Brothers

    Disregarding any questions about Stephen Ambrose's "plagiarism," you must give him credit for capturing an important part of our history, and must applaud HBO for creating a masterful miniseires. If I were a history teacher, the series would be required viewing for my students. Here's a site...

    Dillinger (1973)

    Toland's book was a pretty good read. I have read six or more books on Dillinger and they all disagree on varying points. But anyhow, The Dillinger family pronounced the name with a hard G. It was the press who softened it. I am a Dillinger fanatic and have visited the "escape-proof" jail in...

    one of the last french survivors of wwi dies

    I read an article in the newspaper this past Sunday saying there were twelve veterans of World War One still alive. Most lied about their age because they were too young to join!

    "Those Were The Days" and "When Radio Was"

    Great thread, Seth! Chuck Schaden has been one of my heroes since I was about twelve years old. His book Speaking of Radio is a great read for any fan of old time radio. You can listen to Those Were The Days any time you like by visiting http://www.nostalgiadigest.com

    Sweeney Todd

    It should be interesting to see Johnny Depp as Todd. I am a fan of the musical, and have also seen the 1936 film starring Tod Slaughter (perfect name for the actor, right?) Now I am off to have some meat pies...
