The worst part is when Vince with Shamwow or Slapchop is more interesting than the movie...!!!

Must be AMC. My father would be aghast at what they've done to his favourite movie channel. There're damn few 'American' movies and most are not classics and won't be for several decades hence.

Money fund managers were the problem last year, as well as this year. Certainly the big oil execs were not adverse to raking in the profits (or us over the coals), but the money fund managers were responsible for $147.00/barrel crude prices. I think the reason it "only" ran up to $73.00 this year was the bath some of the managers took last year when the bubble finally burst was still fresh in the minds of the managers. Nor did all of the "obummer bucks" help - a lot of extra cash, you knew it was going to be invested somewhere...

I'll bet you love those commercials that the industry is running right now about the horrible taxation from Washington! Me, I just sit there and holler, "Tax the snot out of them!"

I always watch it to the very end to see if the plane will take off!

"If you needed extra water why didn't you come right out and ask me for it?" "You wouldn't have given it to me!" "You're damned right I wouldn't have given it to you". I have to admit the flying scenes in the remake were pretty good though.

That would be Paul Mantz. He died when the Fuselage broke behind the "cockpit" and the nose went down, dug in, and an end over end ensued. I remember the price paid for that footage every time I see the movie. YouTube has the original crash, some of his other work and a pair of Beaufort crashes that are painful to watch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n82nN_lqn58 |
