    Man from U.N.C.L.E turns 60

    Yeah, you can't reheat soufflé! There were a great many shows of the 60's and 70's that, if watched today, would either illicit gasps of "did they really think that this was entertaining?" Or shouts of rage. Some how I ran across an episode of "Hong Kong Phooey" the other day and I wanted to...

    Jacket Collecting - Ever ask why?

    I went the Leather Route as I wanted something "different" than the milk toast Vanilla outerwear I saw around me at my job. I worked 32 years for the State of New York in it's capital Albany. In the early 80's the place was chock -a - block full of men in grey flannel suits with grey flannel...

    How heavy is your aero jacket?

    Well, I joined FL as a size 52!!!! I'm now a 46 on a good day, 48 after Thanksgiving Dinner! Still the T.B. is in my regular Jacket rotation and, after having the zipper replaced) it will be for the duration. But if you want impress someone, hand them the jacket and let them feel the heft...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I reviewed "Gabriel Over the White House" before. Said to be one of FDR's faves. I couldn't understand the schizophrenic nature of the plot/script any more than you could. You save America by shredding the Constitution (which you claim to love), declare Martial Law, eliminate all political...

    How heavy is your aero jacket?

    Well can't add much more to this thread than PC did! Cept my TB is 7.9 pounds primarily because I'm bigger than he is. Worf

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Wasn't it Groucho in "Horsefeathers" who as Dean of a University said and I quote loosely: "I'm going downtown to buy a couple of Football Players!" Worf

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Yes.... In my eyes The Riddler was a second Banana in Batman's Rogues Gallery. Quirky and funny but not really dangerous. A thief and trickster rather than a psychopathic murderer like the Joker. I felt the same way about the Penguin as well. Interesting and funny yes... dangerous, not...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    You're right. I shouldn't paint with so broad a brush. Bad habit, probably developed because we rarely, if ever, hear the good that people do. Good doesn't get clicks or sell tabloids I suppose. Worf

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    I try to keep my assessment of the "man" to his conduct ON the field. If there was a "morals" clause in any Pro Sports "Hall of Fame" all of them would be practically empty! Worf

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    I never liked his attitude and have always considered him a self absorbed bully. Buddy Harrelson (also recently passed) played Shortstop for my beloved NY Mets. They met Rose's Cincinnati Reds in the playoffs. Ever the "Hot Dog" or "Red Ass" as they say in baseball, Rose slid hard into second...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    John Amos - Best known as the Father on "Good Times" in the 70's. I hated the show but loved his strong portrayal of a Black father trying to do right by his family. He left for the same reasons I stopped watching. They turned the show into the JJ "DYNOMITE!" crap fest and I lost all...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    "Penguin" - This series on HBO picks up right after the last live action film with Colin Farrell again playing a rather divergent take on the the titular villain. However this Penguin's story reads and feels more like "The Wire" than anything to do with "Batman". No monocle, no top hat, not...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I too enjoyed "Pennyworth" a great deal. It was a marvelous alternate universe and, like you, I couldn't wait to find out the history behind that "swinging 60's" England. It was fascinating. DC and Marvel to a certain extent, have gone bonkers with this "Multiverse" or "Multiearth" business...

    Man from U.N.C.L.E turns 60

    Tried watching some old episodes once. Didn't realize how silly the show became in it's second season. Time was NOT kind to this series. Still I remember it fondly! Ah the spy craze of the 60's. Worf

    US Caste System and Leather Jackets

    Very interesting and amusing thread. Thanks, best laugh I've had in days. I personally LIKE the look of fear/dread I often get when wrapped in leather. When attired I only have to worry about drunks and fools. Worf

    What’s to like about where you live?

    One funny thing though... I walked in my neighborhood for 20 years and few if any folks would talk to me. Soon as I got Ruby EVERYBODY seemed to want to stop and talk. Things that make you go Hmmmm. Too scary to talk to until I got a sweet natured Aussie as a walking companion? Enquiring...
