Slim Pickens was one of my favorite actors. Think the B-52 looks anything like the B-707? It should, same parents. Best regards, RA1

So why did FDR apparently "let" the Pearl Harbor attack happen? Endless speculation about this already, I know. Best regards, RA1

Women are taking over the world. Look at the latest efforts of the BSA (Boy Scouts of America). Could be a good thing. Best regards, RA1

The birds near the opening scene have the best of it all. Best regards, RA1

I believe it is a widely circulated idea that native Americans have a gene that makes them susceptible to alcohol. Of course they say much the same thing about women but that might be somewhat supported by weight differences. Yes this was the early 70's. Best regards, RA1

Strange things can and do happen around the world. I remember being shocked my first trip to Goose Bay, Canada seeing the hotel clerk kicking a native on the floor and escorting him out the door. Apparently drinking was only allowed for natives one day a week and I happened to show up that day; I was also interested and not in a good way to see military personnel at Heathrow armed with automatic weapons walking around in the terminal. Courtesy of a recent episode of the "troubles". Best regards, RA1

Sorry for the mistake. I first thought DJT was CK not the prez. Still the controversy is big and getting bigger which is silly considering all the "real" problems we have. Best regards, RA1

Now that it is DJT vs Trump he will at least stir up a bigger controversy. Best regards, RA1

I used to have hope but I gave it up for Lent one year and nothing ever replaced it. OTOH you seem to be supposing it will matter 100 years from now (when the Dow hits 1 million, according to the oracle of Omaha). Best regards, RA1

AS- I think Ma Nature can take care of herself as in what you are describing about the climate. Best regards, RA1

I think it is typical of many Presidential pardons. Best regards, RA1

Kind of made you want to be a bus driver or work in the sewer, if they had that much fun, didn't it? Best regards, RA1

Wiki says that at least some of the Kinescopes exist. All of the original scripts seemingly exist although what Sid did was NOT in the scripts. Best regards, RA1

One thing that made the Shows of Shows so spectacular was the ad libbing by Sid Caesar who frequently broke up Carl Reiner and others in the cast. He and Imogene Coca were spell binding together. I believe these shows were live and some or most not likely preserved in any way. I would like to be wrong about this. Best regards, RA1

Show of Shows The Big Bang Theory Carol Burnett Show The Golden Girls Red Skelton Best regards, RA1

I got a chance to see Johnny Cash live in a country club setting about 1982.I do not belong to this country club. I was just the invited dumb pilot of the host. As I recall the fee was $25,000 for 30 or so minutes in front of an audience of maybe 50 people. I enjoyed the show. Best regards, RA1

Go flying. For me it is impossible to worry about earthly things when miles above it. Best regards, RA1

Whether one is for or against ObamaCare, no one wants this version. Best regards, RA1

Other than friends who were born then or survived the war, I can think of little good that is memorable about 1944. If that guy is 73 I want to meet him and or his siblings. Best regards, RA1

Wrote this as a Word doc which I included. Sorry. Best regards, RA1 Flying.docx

boiworship- I think you must mean 40 years ago. Best regards, RA1

FWIW- When UA went bankrupt a few years ago, they treated their own employees just as shabbily as they are currently treating the flying public. Best regards, RA1

No competition and no incentive beyond the bottom line. Best regards, RA1

How did MEM avoid this list? Best regards, RA1
