John Astin also starred in one of my mum's favourite films, Evil Roy Slade. Another favourite was Cactus Jack, with Arnie. She liked daft films. Thay always seemed to have Western themes, like one of her best liked quotes, Bob Hope: "I'll have a milk... in a dirty glass" - Bet no one remembers that!Quote:

Can't argue with that logic :)
I can see a lot of folk being seriously anxious about current events, so for once I'll hold off on the flippant remarks. Till Monday.
The annexation of the three Russian invaded Ukraine zones announced today by Putin, saying they are now part of Russia, means that any further attacks or resistance by Ukrainian forces are likely to be declared acts of war against Russia! To capitalise, Putin is likely to say such action is NATO sponsored hostilty. Not good.Quote:

We're closer than ever to nuclear holocaust, but where is the CND? Where are the protests, we're walking into Armageddon, yet people are blissfully ignorant. I watched 'Threads' last night, and I'm trying to think of where the safest place to ride out a nuclear holocaust is, then I realised, it doesn't matter, cos 95% of the world will die of starvation anyway, I really don't get this nuclear war thing, a war with no possible victors.
People with no conception of what a real post-apocalyptic world could be like for the few survivors, should read Cormack McCarthy's 'The Road', it paints a bleak and likely very realistic picture. Terrifying really.Quote:
