For those over 50

[2door]

For all my pilot buddys...Whirly Birds!!! Neat. That old Bell 47G was used in more TV shows and movies than any other aircraft, except maybe for the Gooney...

Zevo, Jimmy Buffet immortalized Boston Blackie in one of his old songs. "I wish I had a pencil then mustach, the Boston Blackie kind. A two tone Ricky Ricardo jacket and an autographed picture of Andy Devine..."

very well put all those protesters back in those days is the reason why things are the way they are

 

[Zev0]

I remember "Kingfish" can't remember who played him though.

How about Nick and Nora Roberts with Peter Lawford and can't remember the lady's name.

ZevO,

'Whitey' was the dogs name on Boston Blackie show.

KINGFISH (George Stevens) was on the old Amos & Andy TV show. He was the leader of their lodge 'The Mystic Knights of the Sea'.

Nora Charles was played by Myrna Loy in the 30's, then Phyllis Kirk on TV in the 50's.


"Holy mackrel Andy"......

Maynard G. Krebbs was afraid of " WUuuRK ". I must be a little younger, the TV shows I remember were Sky King when I was really young, Sea Hunt, 77 Sunset Strip, Hawaiian Eye, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Combat!, The Invaders, Hee Haw and an afternoon vampire soap opera called Dark Shadows. Ok, I'll say it first....I was a couch potato as a kid. Oh yeah....one more Star Trek
