What a talent ! Another good Pete Beard video. As usual, I was starting and stopping.
I took the time to find copies of the Lucky Strike advertisements to read the descriptions which were put with Wyeth’s illustrations. All three descriptions are in the spoiler box. They’re not the clearest, but they should be legible once you click on them.
Well worth the time. Please keep them coming.
The descriptions with Wyeth’s Lucky Strike illustrations
How the time does fly when you have a late dinner and then…um… read your comics with your eyes closed. Uh huh.
…
But I’m here now… looking at this great poster from Stel…
with three baaaad doggies.
They’re calledGOOD Doggies…
but they obviously need a spanking.
…
I confess…. I still haven’t seen this film.
StelBel’s gonna spank ME… but I’m still not sure I can watch it….
It’s a bit too violent for my delicate sensibilities.
Seeing that poor basset lying in the street is enough to horrify me!
Especially since…. oh noooo… she looks a lot like Cleo. <<shiver>>
Gasp! … But if I don’t watch the movie… then she’s only sleeping, right?
Um… right???
….
You know, I didn’t watch the human film when it came out, either…
You can plainly see that those human guys are no bassets… so maybe it’s less scary…
But even if it’s watered down from the true horrors of canine mayhem, their poster does seem to show a truly dead human guy lying in the street, and that’s enough for ME.
I dunno…. maybe now that we have the ScaredyCat Row at the BassetPlexII….
and if Montana Lady and all you other Scaredycats would come sit with me… maybe we could get through it.
I know, I know… that section’s supposed to be for horror movies…
But there are all kinds of horror, aren’t there?
…
I just think that if I’m going to buy (or beg) a ticket, and sit with my friends and let myself be horrified and scared…..
I might as well go to the BassetPlex and see the real thing, right?
I mean GoodDoggies, of course, not the copydog human version at the Rialto.
Read this recipe all the way through before assembling the ingredients. It was published at a time when recipes weren’t quite so organized.
My mother made these a few times, but they never became a favourite.
From:
My mother’s cookbook (in my mother’s handwriting)
“Coconut Macaroons II”
Credited to: (From the Hanover Post)
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
Beat 3 egg whites until soft peaks form
Add sugar mixture gradually to egg whites, a few grains at a time beating until sugar grains almost disappear.
Place in double boiler over hot water – water must not touch top of pan.
Cook stirring constantly until mixture coats a silver spoon.
Remove from heat.
Add 1 teaspoon vanilla.
Fold in 2 cups coconut.
Drop by spoonfuls on greased cookie sheet.
Bake at 325° F. 15 to 25 minutes until golden, depending on size.
Notes from me:
The “top of pan” is a misprint. by the paper, or a miscopy by my mother. The water should not touch the bottom of the double boiler.
The “silver spoon” is a sterling silver spoon. I suspect it’s the testing spoon because silver conducts heat very much better than an ordinary cutlery spoon.
A few grains at a time, is a few grains at a time.
Use real vanilla, not artificial.
Preheat the oven. This is important.
Bake on the second rack, top rack is first, and keep an eye on them from the 12 minute mark, both sugar and egg whites burn in the blink of an eye.
Ray Liotta, Field of Dreams
RIP
One of the best!
Two different ways to be Pete Townshend! Great post!
A picture link to the human “Goodfellas.”
As always, click through the clutter and go full screen.
Ray Liotta, RIP,

Ray Liotta tribute night. Thanks, Nighthawks.
pssst…. I think you mean StelBel….
OOPS!
May I suggest an alternative “Leader of the Pack”?
Not quite what one expects of “Twisted Sister,” but fun.
Bobcat Goldthwait’s appearance was a surprise.
Yeah, Twisted Sister’s version is fun…
But the Shangri-las are irreplaceable!
Whenever I hear them, I’m instantly back in school.
I’ve always disliked the manipulative quality of tear-jerker songs, especially “teenage death” records like “Teen Angel.’
So I shouldn’t love “Leader of the Pack” but I can’t help it.
….
I read, not long ago about the video Stel posted.
I don’t know where, cos I just looked at it via the YouTube link and didn’t see the same info,
They were still teenagers, in 1964…
Lip-syncing, on the Robert Goulet show, to their hit record …
when he surprised them, by “riding” up on that motorcycle.
So that’s Robert Goulet, and they’re having a hard time not cracking up.
He really looked like a goofball on that bike!
I thought he was channeling Bob Hope!
Yawn….. er… I mean….

Oh. What to do, what to do.
i’ll be there, Susan. i’ll bring extra kibble-corn, too.
I didn’t know about Ray Lotta’s passing till I saw tonight’s comments.
RIP.
…
Here he is on David Letterman, in 1994, talking for six minutes about (among other things) meeting real mobsters.
….
And 7 years ago, the Goodfellas cast reunites on the Today show…
when the film was already 25 years old!
