We can ride 4-wheelers, be a princess, throw a left hook, pack heat, hunt with the men, bake a cake, love with passion, and if we have an opinion, you know you're going to hear it!! I thought Tonto was the horse. /s

You let yourselves be deprived before your own eyes of the best part of your revenues; your fields are plundered, your homes robbed, your family heirlooms taken away. You live in such a way that you cannot claim a single thing as your own; and it would seem that you consider yourselves lucky to be loaned your property, your families, and your very lives. Etienne de la Boetie
No, Ke-mo Sah-bee :)
Yeah, you can laugh, but at 19 cents per sheet, from the Security Paper Superstore, that damn GREEN SECURITY PAPER better cook me a nice meal, buy me expensive presents and give me a blow job.

Who was it that used to say "Howdy, buckeroos"? I can't remember.

I am sure of this. Please people correct me. What was the name of the plane? Stallion? To this day a King Air plane is considered to be a desirable vehicle.
For bonus points: What was the name of Penny's Plane? For double bonus points what was its make? Who played Daniel Boone on the Disney Series about him? Who played his Indian Guide and Friend? What was his Indian Guide also famous for other than playing an Indian? What was the TV Show "Whirly Birds" about? Glad this is not penny poker!
Set at the Double Bar M Ranch, the grizzly ol' Gabby Hayes hosted stories of the American West with vintage film clips of classic cowboys like Tex Ritter, Tim Holt, and Gene Autry. "Well, Howdy Buckeroos, this is your old pal, Gabby Hayes, comin' at you with another one of them rip roarin' western yarns. Heh, yer durnnnn tootin', Yessiree Bob. - - Opening Narration)
Deep down I must have known that, because that's the way I always pictured buck.
1) 54 - correct 2) unknown - The Cemetary - he was a Grave Digger. 3) Mockingbird Lane? 1/2 credit - 1313 Mockingbird Ln. 4) gun - Correct 5) petie? - Jackie Coogan - he was only in a couple of the episodes but was in there. 6) Colt .45 - Sawed off Winchester '76

They had a green hornet marathon going recently. Watched a bunch of those. funniest thing I've seen in a while. Bruce Lee was right about that show. but my era is more Adam West.

I can't remember specifics but he seemed to think the show was a joke. He always talked about how his fights scenes consisted of him jumping in with two karate chops and fight would be done or he would take on 5 guys while the green hornet would fight with one.

I would agree with him that the show had its hokey elements. However, the hokey show is what propelled Bruce Lee to fame whether he wanted to admit it or not. I think what really made the show was the opening theme played by Al Hirt. It is interesting how the music can make or break a movie or a TV show. Can you imagine Peter Gunn without the Henry Mancini theme song, or James Bond without the Bond Theme? The one movie that Sean Connery did as Bond for another producer, who did not have the rights to the Bond Theme, was a flop. It was just not the same. The music absolutely fit the early Bond movies and made all the difference in the world.

yes the right theme music/song makes a difference. Cheers, MASH, Welcome Back Kotter etc Do you remember a show called Chico and the Man? Great theme.

The late Freddy Prinz. I don't recall the theme though. Star Wars has great theme music as well. John Williams is a wonderful composer. He did the music for the third Harry Potter movie as well.

I was going to post a youtube but then I remembered you were on dial up. We have a CD of all the great space movie themes. Well some TV shows mixed in.

Is it the Telarc Disc "Star Tracks"? If so I have it as well. Another great intro and theme was for the TV show 77 Sunset Strip. I think TV themes went way downhill when they stopped composing good ones and just went for cheap pop schlock. The ones that rely on Jazz or Classical themes are much more interesting and do a much better job of setting the show up.

I agree. Where would Mission Impossible be without the theme? Streets of San Francisco.

Yes, two excellent themes. The Pink Panther theme was an attention getter as well - another Henry Mancini piece. The animated movie "Heavy Metal" was one of the few that was able to use Rock Music in a tasteful way that really worked with the movie.

As the planet goes through cycles of booms and busts ... you're likely a "buster" !
Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break into pieces. Etienne de la Boetie
I've never seen the word "tasteful" is the same sentence as the movie "Heavy Metal". lol Skykings plane was the 'Songbird' I was wrong about Penny,she was his neice,and Nelliebelle RR's Jeep.

It was a good movie and the music fit well. For its time it was risqué, now it's kind of passé compared to other animation.
