Take a walk in the city! Give me a break!
Raine, I live in Gary Indiana, the Murder Capital of the US.
I didn't live to be 59 years old by hiking through the city.
We have a bike trail that was created to run the length of the state but no one
uses it because people get mugged and killed.
Preservation works best when you don't look at the world through rose colored
glasses but accept reality and use common sense to insure you live to see
another day.
But don't let me dissuade you - you're more than welcome to walk through my
little city.

say line ups!!! Wow! I am impressed.We do a lot of movie watching in the
evening. Today we watched Sabertooth,I had prerecorded it earlier. It was pretty
good. We have a lot of Horror and  Scifi as well. But we also have a lot of
comidies as well. I am watching comidies as well, it is a nice change of pace.I
think I am going to pull out my VHS copy of Francis In A Haunted House and am
going to watch The Three Stooges In Orbit.

many condeies as I have, beginning with my Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin box set
which includes: "My Friend Irma", "My Friend Irma Goes West", "That's My Boy",
"Jumping Jacks", "Sailor Beware", "The Caddy", "The Stooge" and "Scared Stiff".
I plan to continue with a variety of Jerry Lewis films he made after the
break-up with Dead Martin. I've got all four Abbott and Costello box set
collections, so I'll end up watching most of the 'meet the monsters' films from
the set.
> > > As you can imagine most of the movies in my collection are horror or
sci-fi related, but I do have a quite a few comedies mixed as well - I just
don't watch them as much as the others, so these little monthly themes allow me
to dig through the back shelves and pull out things I tend to overlooked.
> > > Last month I watched Season One and Two of the original "The Outer Limits"
series as well as Season One of "Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea"; and the month
before that I pulled out all my Sherlock Holmes VHS tapes of the Jeremy Brent
BBC series as well as the Basil Rathbone series and a variety of other films
featuring the great consulting detective. I never upgraded the Jeremy Brett or
Basil Rathbone films to DVD so it gave me a chance to give the old VCR a
work-out.

"Carnivale", "Jerico", "Firefly", and "Dead Like Me".

myself to nothing but BAD news. I got really burned-out and needed to get away
from reality so thought if I was going to spend time watching the tube I'd use
that time to catch up on goofy old monster movies, 50s' sitautions comedies like
"The Honeymooners", "I Love Lucy" and "Amos and Andy", and big budget escapist
entertainment.
> > > Don't worry Raine, I'm doing other things as well ... I'm just talking
abut TV time. LOL

forgotten treasures you might find. I even came across a couple of VHS tapes
with movies recorded that I forgot I had like "The Man From U.N.C.L.E. "The 15
Years Later Affair", and the BBC mini series "Day Of The Triffids".

It is a riot.Richard Benjamin and I think Paula Printess his wife was in it too.
It was so funny. I haven't watched it in awhile. Guess I will have to pull it
out. Hope things look up for you.we will be putting up a new show this week. But
I am not sure what we are going to show. Have A great Day..Till We Meet Again:Be

night.. What can you say, it's about as perfect as you can get. Between sight
gags and one liners it's nonstop fun. Werewolf, There wolf. gets me every time..

watched both Love At First Bite And Young Frankenstien.I throughly enjoyed both

Harrison was great as Dracula,so sauve so charming.We found the movie to be
really good and it came right on time,I ordered it from Amazon on Wed and got it
on Sat. Talk about luck. I would give this a B# for allround entertainment and
comedic value.

and Gene Wilder what can I say,I am a bonifide fan. I actually noticed something
I had never really spotted before, that was the darts in the wheel. I found the

this one an A#. Please feel free to share your reviews with me and let me know
