Re: I Just Watched...

S Apparentl y ROBERT DUVALL and JAMES CAAN did a lot of clowning around on on the set and- TBH- while I'm fine with JAMES CAAN (as an actor), I DON'T LIKE ROBERT DUVALL (as a person or an actor) and I AND NEVER HAVE.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

Dargo, you know me so well, lol! Actually Troy is more like a brother figure for me. But it's also because of his fish lips. Let's face it, they're blubbery, and I am a thin-lipped guy kind of girl.

Re: M*A*S*H The TV Show

LIke Murder, She Wrote, which is worthy of it's own thread (Lorna), M*A*S*H had many fine guest stars. This show never got as many old time movie star guests like Murder She Wrote , I remember Leslie Nielsen and Robert Alda (Alan's father) in the early years. There were some future stars like Patri...
