for old folks - yellowlynn - 04-03-2009
I ran across a link today that the older, mature gentlemen (spelled Geezer) may find very interesting. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.objflicks.com">http://www.objflicks.com</a><!-- m -->

Thanks for that link, Lynn. Yeah, I'm not embarrassed to admit that I looked, although I was expecting to see some swell dames, mebbe flashin' their classy gams.
Still interesting, though.Wayne (you can call me Mister Geezer)

I must be really old at heart as I really liked that site. A lot of stuff in there that's right on.

I don't know why I looked...Not being a geezer..or anything....
Good site for all you ol' geezers....

Interesting site.
I had to grab my walker and get the old lady so we could "reminisce" together.
I would of looked at more but I can't find my reading glasses.

I'm glad most of you enjoy it. I have watched several, but I still have a few to go. The "Pledge of Allegiance" by Red Skelton, and Audie Murphy are my favorites so far.

Re: for old folks - Herc Driver - 04-04-2009
Red Skelton's piece should be mandatory viewing for all kids. And if you ever can find it...listen to John Wayne's version too. Great stuff.
Re: for old folks - Steamtrains - 04-05-2009
Red Skelton was one of my favorite comics. Together with Jack Benny. Those guys could make you laugh by lifting an eyebrow....Nowadays they need a whole collection of obscenities and ethnic slurs to get a rise out of people. Sad....
(Just to clarify....I've seen re-runs of their programs....As I mentioned before, not an old geezer, so I didn't catch them "live"...
)
