Thumpin Thursday

Late evening thoughts all coming into my pea brain at the same time...


Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)

Michael Rennie was ill the day the earth stood still

Flash Gordon was there in silver underwear

Claude Rains was the invisible man


My brother in law took me out for lunch at Sagano's Japanese Bistro and Steakhouse Restaurant to-day and we ate very well. You sit right by the grill and watch the chef-entertainer throw stuff at you and create huge flames while he creates your meal. The guy had an onion volcano going that had us running for cover; we politely declined the offer to let him toss small bits of chicken into our mouths via his spatula.


How do you feel when the whole world sees you've won $1000 worth of Aleeve on Jeopardy?


The High and the Mighty (1954) tense, drama

The Great Train Robbery (1979) slow moving but builds to a wonderful climax
