    West Side Story with Rita Moreno singing about America and dancing up a storm.

    Singin' in the Rain with Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds, and Donald O'Connor.

    Anything with Gene Kelly... An American in Paris... MGM musicals ... Freg & Ginger..

    voraciousreader - I like my popcorn dripping in butter too.  That is the only way to eat it.

    soccermom - Nothing says you have to have stuff to throw into the bonfire to be here.  Everyone is welcome.  As you can see by the last page or so, we kinda got off the topic and that is okay.  This is a great place to just hangout.

    The show with Gomer Pyle was Gomer Pyle U.S.M.C.  It was a spin off of The Andy Griffith Show.

    I can still remember Gomer always trying to please Sgt Carter and the smirk he always had on his face.

    Dark Shadows was very controversial wasn't it? Why? --------------Alfred Hitchkock, Rod Serling.  Did SuzannePleshette and _________start in the late 60's /----first time two people in the same bed----radical

    Sas-schatzi - I think because it had a dark sexual undertone, Gothic like and mysterious...LOL!!  God, I''m an avid Hitchcock and Serling fan, still to this day...love all the "back in the day" movies as well.  Re-runs now on some channels and really makes you look at how far TV has come and the content of them.  Of course, it all revolves around "how" life is at that moment or that decade...Do you like Sir Anthony Hopkins? Robert Redford?

    Dark Shadows, loved it!  Would run home from school to watch. 

    I will admit that I owned the 45 of Quentin's Theme.  Wish I'd kept it.

    What shall we burn up next?  How about men who cheat on their wives?  (mine doesn't)

    In particular, I am thinking of John Edwards, Arnold Schwartznegger, and that idiotic Weiner.

    The word around town about the schwarzeneggers...was the following....

    English is a second language for Arnold.  So, when the housekeeper asked him for a raise, he said he had to discuss it with Maria and get back to her.  When he told Maria that the housekeeper wanted a raise, Maria said, "Screw her."

    Have not been here for a while and had to catch up.  glad I did I love the laughs.  Someone mentioned the partridge family.  My mom would not let us what them because she though they were hippies and did not like their long hair. haha.

    Thought I would come and join the bonfire as I need to gain weight so I thought I could find some really good smores around here to eat.

    I am going to through my rads SE's in the bondfire.  All they have done is cause me trouble.  Too long to go into to but just through them in.

    Juliet... You wouldn't believe what I am reading now. I will start by what I just finished. Read Erik Larson's In The Garden of Beasts. It was terrific. I had a question for the author and decided to email him. He graciously responded. Afterwards, I read The Man in the Rockefeller Suit. Finished it while landing at JFK from a cross country flight. Perfect book to read while flying! In between, I can't put down Geoff Dyer's new book. Major crush on him....Maybe we can have book night down by the Bonfire and he can read to us! Doesn't that sound like fun??? And what am I reading now??? Deviant, by Harold Schecter. All about Edward Gein. I have read several of his other books. Now aren't you sorry you asked???
