I turned on my sirius satellite radio yesterday, and much to my surprise I happened to look at the title and artist name of the song which was being broadcast on Escape Channel 76 (which I have rarely listened to) and to my astonishment there was Johnny Douglas performing a song called "Somewhere In Time". After several more songs on Channel 76 by other artists, I looked down again and at that point Johhny Douglas had another song called "I Won't Send Roses". Another stroke of fate. Somehow I must have forgotten that I ever was an orchestra leader. Unless, of couse, there is another Johnny Douglas somewhere (probably has croaked by now--lucky stiff). Astounding coincidence or fate that I heard Johnny Douglas? Fate is fate, Johnny

Anyone know what a food delivery enhancement specialist is? I heard one call into the Michael Savage radio show last week and she sounded very profound. How about guessing the answer? I will let you know if you are correct. Have a day, Johnny

I just heard from Jeff last week. He was planning a birthday bash and is going to New Zealand for two weeks next month. Barb

Gwen: I remember getting flat-top haircuts at Chick's barber shop also. I don't recall whether Chick or Rudy was the best at cutting flat-tops. Now that I have reverted to having flat-tops again, I find it difficult to have anyone actually able to cut flat-top haircuts in today's world. I have found 1 hair place in Boerne which has a hair person who can cut flat-tops. Yippee! And believe it or not, the hair cut person is a she (Linda). Linda works for Great Clips (with the senior special rates). Who would have thunk back in 1959 that a she person would cut my hair in 2011? There are no barber shops any more. Well, actually there are a couple of barber shops in Boerne, but they are not too swift. I guess the old time smokey barber shops (with no women allowed to set foot into) are a distant memory.

Hi everybody, Do you remember Leslie "Chick" Sandwith? He was a barber in Dalton for many years with Dan Rudy. That was why I sent you an e-mail on his sister, Arlene (Sandwith) Cazan. Glenn remembers getting many, many haircuts with "Chick" Sandwith.

Finally the USA Cinematic Appreciation Society Awards (USACAS) have been tabulated. Did you vote? I did and the results are startling. My picks agree with the USACAS as to the top 17 awards for the best movies ever as determined by a secretive ballot which is so secretive even the USACAS members can't vote. Here are the top 17 movies of all time: 17. Death At a Funeral (a real dark comedy with many twists of fate) 16. Beerfest (a challenge to drink Das Boot) 15. The Hangover (a Las Vegas bachelor party delight) 14. A Shot in the Dark (starring Peter Sellers) 13. Ed and His Dead Mother (a deal with the devil) 12. Chopping Mall (a horror delight) 11. The Proposal (Sandra Bullock at her best) 10. Attack of the Killer Tomatoes (one of the all-time great flicks) 09. House of Wax (3-D movie circa 1953 starring Vincent Price) 08. My Big Fat Greek Wedding (very entertaining) 07. Grumpier Old Men (Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau classic encore) 06. Grumpy Old Men (Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau classic) 05. Zombieland (a true zombie movie complete with the hated clowns) 04. Sound of Music (Julie Andrews at her finest moment) 03. Bridge over the River Kwai (William Holden shines) 02. Gran Torino(Clint Eastwood at his best) 01. Fargo (William H Macy and Frances McDormand are the greatest) There are also a few honorable mentions which are as follows: Psycho The Man Who Knew Too Much Vertigo The Birds Jaws Snow White Attacks Cinderella Superman Giant Snakes on a Plane Gidget Goes Hawaiian The Alamo (John Wayne version) I don't know if you saw the USACAS awards on PBS last week or not. Because of funding cutbacks, maybe the awards were not shown yet in your area. Stay tuned and call your local PBS station to let them know you want the awards on your local PBS station. Let me know if you agree with the awards. What are your choices if you have not yet voted. Good luck at voting. The last date to vote was 01/12/11. Cordially, The Moviecriticmeister J Henry, Esq.

Just in from Don and Beth Johnson. Thought you would all enjoy this one. I might add that I remember my mom sprinkling the clothes and rolling them up and putting in the refrigerator till she got around to ironing them on our mangel iron. Any memories of clothes lines in your head? Also I remember using that same clothes line with two indian blankets clipped to the line and pulled out to make a tent. In fact it was one of the times I got in BIG trouble cause I hammered clothes pins in the corners of the blanket for stakes and made holes in the blankets. OH sweet memories. Please share some of yours........ HOW TRUE!! You have to be a certain age to appreciate this. THE BASIC RULES FOR CLOTHESLINES: (If you don't know what clotheslines are, better skip this.) 1. You had to wash the clothes line before hanging any clothes--walk the entire lengths of each line with a damp cloth around the lines. 2. You had to hang the clothes in a certain order, and always hang "whites" with "whites," and hang them first. 3.. You never hung a shirt by the shoulders, always by the tail! What would the neighbors think? 4. Wash day on a Monday! . .. . Never hang clothes on the Weekend, or Sunday, for Heaven's sake! 5. Hang the sheets and towels on the outside lines so you could hide your "unmentionables" in the middle (perverts & busybodies, y'know!). 6. It didn't matter if it was sub zero weather....clothes would "freeze-dry." 7. Always gather the clothes pins when taking down dry clothes! Pins left on the lines were "tacky!" 8. If you were efficient, you would line the clothes up so that each item did not need two clothes pins, but shared one of the clothes pins with the next washed item. 9. Clothes off of the line before dinner time, neatly folded in the clothes basket, and ready to be ironed. 10. IRONED? Well, that's a whole other subject! A CLOTHESLINE POEM A clothesline was a news forecast To neighbors passing by, There were no secrets you could keep When clothes were hung to dry. It also was a friendly link For neighbors always knew, If company had stopped on by To spend a night or two. For then you'd see the "fancy sheets" And towels upon the line; You'd see the "company table cloths" With intricate designs. The line announced a baby's birth From folks who lived inside - As brand new infant clothes were hung, So carefully with pride! The ages of the children could So readily be known By watching how the sizes changed, You'd know how much they'd grown! It also told when illness struck, As extra sheets were hung; Then nightclothes, and a bathrobe, too, Haphazardly were strung. It also said, "Gone on vacation now" When lines hung limp and bare. It told, "We're back!" when full lines sagged, with not an inch to spare! New folks in town were scorned upon If wash was dingy and gray, As neighbors carefully raised their brows, And looked the other way. But clotheslines now are of the past, For dryers make work much less. Now what goes on inside a home Is anybody's guess! I really miss that way of life. It was a friendly sign. When neighbors knew each other best by what hung on the line.

Memories of the 1940's Wow! Those were the days. It took a war to end the depression. Great. Neat rememberences for those old enough to remember! History for the rest of us. Click here for slide show: The 1940s

Forgot to add a phrase: Hand like a foot--expression used in card games when you have a terrible hand of cards in poker, euchre, or old maid or crazy 8's. I know exactly how you feel; I had a similar experience once myself. (How many times have you said that when you make a token attempt to empathize with whatever weird situation some bozo is talking about?) Have a day. Johnny

After pondering the futility of today's world, I pause to reflect on some of life's truisms: What I never knew I will never forget (from a John Prine song). Hot toast makes the butterfly (early American folklore). Basically people are nice in isolated groups of one or less (profound statement from world statesman J Henry Douglas) The older I get the better I used to be (from a Larry Joe Taylor song). Footprints in the snow are soon forgotten (just made it up now). I grow old; I wear my trousers rolled (T S Elliot poem Lovesong of J Alfred Prufrock). Kind of silly but now I do wear my trousers rolled as I think I am actually shrinking just like other old folks. Clocks are a waste of time (ancient allegory). One day closer to spring (wise saying from J Henry Douglas) Although one day closer to spring, we are also one day closer to next winter (just in case I sounded too optimistic about one day closer to spring--this is also realistic). A star at night is bright (probably an astronomer got paid by a government grant to make this determination). A penny saved is worthless; only saving dollars makes sense (probably a dimwit economist said this). Cornbread. Is it corn or is it bread? (Betty Crocker I betcha figured this out). Made in China (what isn't?) Made in USA (my Honda) Smart cat (impossible). Our cat sure is not like a dog. Dirt cheap. Pretty unlikely; have you bought any garden soil recently? It costs a small fortune. Levelland, Texas. Probably the best name for a town in West Texas. Restaurants with the name "Eat". Certainly it must be a place to eat. Emanon. No name spelled backwards. It really is emanon. Spotted leopard ( a no-brainer). Fun funeral. (Sicko). Happy Birthday (just another year closer to demise). Best wishes (trite expression) How are you? I am fine, thank you. (Gag me). As George Carlin said "Hair is fine". A flat tire does not roll. (Really?) Two is greater than one. (Prove it). Can't we all get along? (Not so far in this crazy world we live in). Accountants don't die; they just lose their balance. (What weirdo ever said that? I am offended.) A stitch in time saves nine. (What exactly does that mean? Saves nine whats?) A horse by any other name is still a horse (obviously). Pleasant dreams (as compared with nightmares I guess) Any other truisms I forgot? A penny for your thoughts (hardly worth it, is it? Juan aka Ian aka John
