Now if those trombone listening cattle from yesterday had been listening to this guy before hand, there might have been a different outcome (at one point, MISSED is spelled with a “P”, well placed though”).
When I was a kid, when we all still had black and white film cameras…
if you dropped off your roll to be developed at the BassetMart, or Longear’s Drugs….
you had to remember to check a little box on the envelope, and pay I think 73 cents extra, to get your prints in black and white instead of the normal basset sepia…
…
Same for the dogs if they used the human drugstore…. only I think it was 94 cents. I know they howled a little.
But I liked my prints in sepia… and the fact that the format was a bit longer… I think 4 x 7.5″ instead of 4 x 6″…
That was to accommodate long ears in portrait orientation, or long bodies in landscape.
Ah… memories.

Oooh… I love this poster, Stel!
And the movie, too.
What a couple of baaad dogs!
But their tail is told in a lighthearted way that seems to have disappeared from today’s gritty realism.
…
When I saw those photos, years ago, of the real dogs…
I thought, and still think, that they look like they should have played the opposite roles.
Paul Newhound looks so much like the real Sundance Pup!
Another funny thing about Paul Newhound… I know he’s a handsome dog….
with those piercing hound dog eyes that make so many ladies…. canine and human…. sigh deeply.
But somehow, though I like his movies, and his personality…
the magic of his looks is lost on me…
I never really thought about it ’till I was talking with a friend about a scene in this film…
and I referred to Robbie Redflea as “the good-looking one.”
She said “Which? They’re both good looking!”
Oh.
…
Well…. you can take Paul Newhound for a long walk and I’ll stay here and scratch Robbie Redflea behind the ears.
Ooops. maybe someone will have to walk Katherine Ruffs, though.
She looks like she wants to bite me.
It’s OK, Katherine…. here girl… c’mon. have a biscuit.
It’s just an ear-scritch.
I’m human, and he’s a dog… and I’m too old to have puppies anyway.
….
So forward thinking, BTW, of 21st Century Basset to change their name, years ahead of that human company still stuck in the 20th.
Why are they labeling themselves foxes, anyway?
I wonder whether there were any lawsuits from actualfoxes.
…
Why did the humans line up all those people along the bottom of their poster, Stel?
I don’t see a line of doggies with their paws in the air on yours!
And your beautiful antique bouquet outshines their paltry flowers.
…
Ooooh…. and the music… I see by your video that they couldn’t match the Bertie Backscratch tune….

Good morning, Basset movie phans!
“Most of it is true.” Ah yes. Back when based on a true story meant more than the title.
I make this with Old cheddar, (Sharp, in American parlance) it’s an old favourite.
I’ve got nothing against Swiss cheese, I’ve made the quiche as per the recipe and it was good, but I prefer cheddar.
From:
“Woman’s Day Collector’s Cook Book (revised and enlarged)
Published by: Simon and Schuster, New York
SBN: 671-21986-3
Quiche Lorraine France’s classic cheese pie, with bacon.
1-1/2 cups grated Swiss cheese (6 ounces)
8 slices crisp bacon, crumbled
Unbaked 9” pie shell
3 eggs
1 cup heavy cream (whipping cream 35% milk fat works well)
1/2 cup milk (whole milk 3.25% milk fat)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Dash of cayenne
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
Sprinkle cheese and bacon in pie shell. Beat remaining ingredients together and pour into pie shell.
Bake in moderate oven (375° F.) 45 minutes or until firm and browned. Cut in wedges and serve warm.
Notes from me:
You’ll still only need to make 1/2 the pie crust recipe, I posted…
not exactly. the premise of the show was this multi billionaire
John Bearsford Tipton if I remember right, got his kicks by
giving a million dollars to various folk each week.
the character on the right is Michael Anthony and he was the
billionaire’s emissary whose job was to inform the folks they were
millionaires …
I always figure it’s better to feel old than to not feel at all.
Bummer! I was going out to kayak this morning, but it was raining when we got there. I’ll have to wait and see if it burns off. It’s one thing to feel old, but I don’t have to choose cold and miserable. 🙂

Love your poster, Stel! Love it so much more than that other one. Looks more old-timey with prettier flowers!
(human version)
…
[Sorry I’m a little late tonight — I kept making mistakes.]
We’ll gladly wait for you. There ain’t no rules in comics.
You are ALWAYS worth waiting for, Stel! Especially when it’s for Butch Bassety and the Sundance Pup! great artwork, Stel!
YOU, make mistakes?? Say it ain’t so! Everything you do seems so perfect.
You got here before me. 🙂

The link line below leads to…
…a fairly short read about the real outlaws.
Some facts, and some speculation, but interesting.
I think “Cows with Guns” was about as much as I want to waste time on tonight! Good Night!
The number 1 hit when the movie was released.
Dig that groovy psychedelia. 🦋 🦚 🐛
Also see one of the earliest appearances of Sabrina “The Teenage Witch.”
cute!
Those bassets look great in the old-style photo print. Of course brown is a natural color for them.

Well done as always, Stel. Love the sepia.

be a millionaire
Is that “The Millionaire?”
We used to watch that show when I was a kid.
The guy had one million dollars, so he was able to help hundreds of people, and transform their lives…
Tell that to today’s billionaires.
They are only into ‘the one with the most wins’. Although a couple of them do give a fair amount to charity.

Oh right… I was getting it mixed up with another guy who had a newspaper column.
He was the one who had I think a million dollars… Maybe it was more…
But people would write to him, and ask for some trivial sum…
And he would give it to them if he deemed it worthy.
….
…..
I’ve shown photos of my herd. All adopted or rehomed.
I heartily welcome everyone to do that!….

Good morning Balladeers, ((((( Plods))))) and Miss Susan.
Great poster, *Stel!* And yet, again, brings back memories of long ago! I loved that movie! And now I feel old, dang it!
I always figure it’s better to feel old than to not feel at all.

Apropos of nothing…
LOVE the bunny animations!
