The Night They Raided Minsky's in 1968.
From wiki...
"In 1967, Lahr died of pneumonia in New York City in the middle of filming The Night They Raided Minsky's, forcing producers to use a double in several scenes. Fittingly, this last role was as a burlesque comic. Lahr is buried at Union Field Cemetery in Ridgewood, Queens."

The reason there were only 12 episodes made is that writing the scripts drove John Cleese and Connie Booth apart. They were actually separated when writing the final shows.

Daffodils - a poem by by William Wordsworth
I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced, but they
Out-did the sparkling leaves in glee;
A poet could not be but gay,
In such a jocund company!
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

The word of the day..Cocoon
protective case of silk or similar fibrous material spun by the larvae of moths and other insects that serves as a covering for their pupal stage.
A similar natural protective covering or structure, such as the egg case of a spider.
A protective plastic coating that is placed over stored military or naval equipment.
Something suggestive of a cocoon in appearance or purpose: “a congressionally mandated process that will gradually strip these institutions of a cocoon of regulations” (Edward Meadows).

Wow Adrain Adonis,there's a name from the past. I just looked him up,having forgotten that he too has also passed away.
Adonis was killed on July 4, 1988 in Lewisporte, Newfoundland and Labrador while riding in a minivan with fellow wrestlers William "Mike Kelly" Arko, Victor "Pat Kelly" Arko, and Dave "Wildman" McKigney. Adonis, McKigney, and Pat Kelly were killed when the driver, Mike Kelly, allegedly swerved in order to avoid hitting a moose and, blinded by the setting sun, inadvertedly drove into a lake. Mike Kelly survived, albeit with severe leg injuries

Some more great names of the pass
I did some more research on Rick Rude and according to Wiki,he did not die of testicular cancer,but heart failure due to an overdose of GHB and steroids.Davey Boy Smith also had a heart attack,and they believed anabolic steroid use may have played a part in his death.

Mick McManus .... pretty much is THE original wrestler in Britain ... at least, for our generation. He was doing it, when I was still in my school shorts ! Seemed to feature in just about every other match. Also .. you had the Royal (Royle ? ) Brothers ..... who I liked to watch ... a good tag team duo.
Surprised to see 'Giant Haystacks' on the list ninny published ... as I know he wrestled in the UK .... often as the arch enemy of 'Big Daddy' .... real name Shirley Crabtree, I believe ... ex coldstream guards, I think, too ?
Maybe 'haystacks' was American ... and ended up going back there .... or a Brit, who made a living in the US too ?

I DO remember now ...that he died in shocking circumstances .... heard about it at that time ... the wrestling world was stunned. I couldn't recall how it came about.
Somebody's ass no doubt , would've been sued ? Faulty rope ... at work ... who's the culprit ? I expect the money did not go to the 'Heart Foundation' ... but to the 'Hart Foundation' ? (Yes .... that WAS the name of their tag team ! lol ) .

I prefer regular peas, garden peas .... minted .... even from a packet, to 'mushy peas' .... in this particular combo. However, there is a famous pie place in Sydney, where those 'mushy peas' ....with mash potato, and gravy on top ..... are just EXCELLENT.
Elton John, Colonel Sanders (of KFC fame)
Hang on a second .... why I am struggling my poor little drunken head to remember this (celebrity visitors, to a pie stall ! ) .... when some quick research can back up my claims .... (ah, here:) http://www.nsw.nationaltrust.org.au/harryscafe.html (there's more info, then I'm supplying HERE)
http://www.nsw.nationaltrust.org.au/harryscafeL.jpg
Harry’s Café de Wheels became a must see tourist attraction; celebrity visitors have included Frank Sinatra, Robert Mitchum and Marlene Dietrich. More recently, celebrity visitors include “Elton John held a press conference at Harry's, and the British singer is a regular customer when he visits Sydney. Other recent visitors have included actors Kevin Costner, Brooke Shields, Pat Rafter, Olivia Newton-John, Jerry Lewis, Billy Crystal and ex-Baywatch star Pamela Anderson.”In 1978, Rear Admiral David Martin, later the State Governor, launched HMAS Harry's , with the aid of a pie and a glass of champagne.
They use top quality meat, .... I generally get a 'Tiger' .... which is a curried meat pie, ... with the mash, peas, gravy .... on the top. Quite substantial, ....and I eat it right there, maybe sat down on the wharf, as the seagulls eat their hearts out, waiting in vain, for a piece !

Colonel Sanders ... doing HIS bit ...... for another 'fast food' place ? :o
It MUST be good .... (and MAYBE ............ more than 'finger licking' :P :D ;D

The word or phrase of the day...Puppy Love
Puppy love is an informal term for feelings of love, particularly between young people during adolescence, so-called for its resemblance to the adoring, worshipful affection that may be felt by a puppy. The term is often used in a derogatory fashion, describing emotions which are shallow and transient in comparison to other forms of love such as romantic love.

I do believe peas are an excellent source of fiber, and in general, nutrients / protein. One of the BEST vegies, I think ?
Pea soup, is from particularly good, on a cold winters day in the UK, for a quick, filling soup, when you're under the weather ? Chuck a bit of tabasco in there too,if you wanna spice it up.

He had the 'last laugh' over the Johnny Mathis version. J. M didn't even chart in the UK, (with that) although I'm sure I heard it on the radio. The legendary Elvis Presley could only reach #21 (the number one performer, on the UK charts). The no. 2 performer, Cliff Richard, could only get it to no.8. Donny, is the ONLY person to take that song to No. 1 ... over there !

On my son's MySpace he has this quote about Colonel Sanders
In the words of the late, great Colonel Sanders, who said: I am too drunk to taste this chicken."
I can't resist a good pie with mushy peas.. I try new ones whenever I am out and about....just searching for the perfect pie. They usually open the top of the pie and use a spoon to insert the mushy peas. While it DOES taste great it is hard to eat without getting messy (with the pie top less secure etc).
I once ventured over the border into northern New South Wales and asked for one and they said they don;t make them in that State! :o All they would offer me was a Pie Floater ...which sounds disgusting but consists of the same meat pie sitting in a bowl of mushy peas (the pie sits on top). So, I went with my next preference...the curry pie. (Al...I was surprised they had them in Sydney, NSW).

The person of the day....Otis Redding
Otis Ray Redding, Jr. (September 9, 1941 – December 10, 1967) was an American soul singer. According to the website of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (where he was inducted in 1989), Redding's name is "synonymous with the term soul, music that arose out of the black experience in America through the transmutation of gospel and rhythm and blues into a form of funky, secular testifying."

Otis Redding must be living in the 60's,there were no internet at that time.
The HIstory of the Internet.
The idea
The initial idea is credited as being Leonard Kleinrock's after he published his first paper entitled "Information Flow in Large Communication Nets" on May 31, 1961.
In 1962 J.C.R. Licklider becomes the first Director of IPTO and gave his vision of a galactic network. In addition to the ideas from Licklider and Kleinrock, Robert Taylor helped create the idea of the network, which later became ARPANET.
Initial creation
The Internet as we know it today first started being developed in the late 1960's.
In the summer of 1968 the Network Working Group (NWG) held its first meeting chaired by Elmer Shapiro with the Stanford Research Institute (SLI) with attendees: Steve Carr, Steve Crocker, Jeff Rulifson, and Ron Stoughton. In the meeting the group discussed solving issues related to getting hosts to communicate with each other.
In December 1968 Elmer Shapiro with SLI released a report "A Study of Computer Network Design Parameters." Based on this work and earlier work done by Paul Baran, Thomas Marill and others; Lawrence Roberts and Barry Wessler helped to create the final version of the Interface Message Processor (IMP) specifications. BBN was later awarded the contract to design and build the IMP sub network.
Introduction of the Internet to the general public
UCLA puts out a press release introducing the public to the Internet on July 3, 1969.
First network equipment
August 29, 1969 the first network switch and the first piece of network equipment (called "IMP", which is short for Interface Message Processor) is sent to UCLA and on September 2, 1969 the first data moves from UCLA host to the switch.
The first distributed message
On Friday October 29, 1969 the first Internet message was sent from computer science Professor Leonard KleinRock's laboratory at UCLA after the second piece of network equipment was installed at SLI. This connection not only enabled the first transmission to be made but is also considered to be the first Internet backbone.
The first message to be distributed was: "LO", which was an attempt at "LOGIN" by Charley S. Kline to log into the SLI computer from UCLA. However, the message was unable to be completed because the SLI system crashed. Shortly after the crash the issue was resolved and he was able to log into the computer.
E-mail is developed
Ray Tomlinson introduces network e-mail in 1972, the first messaging system to send messages across a network to other users.
TCP is developed
Vinton Cerf and Robert Kahn design TCP during 1973 and later publish it with the help of Yogen Dalal and Carl Sunshine in December of 1974 in RFC 675.
Ethernet is conceived
Bob Metcalfe develops Ethernet idea in 1973.
TCP/IP is created
In 1978 TCP splits into TCP/IP driven by Danny Cohen, David Reed, and John Shoch to support real-time traffic. This allows the creation of UDP. TCP/IP is later standardized into ARPANET in 1983 and is still the primary protocol used for the Internet.
DNS is introduced
Paul Mockapetris and Jon Postel introduce DNS in 1984.
HTML
In 1990 Tim Berners-Lee develops HTML, which makes a huge contribution to how we navigate and view the Internet today.
WWW
Tim Berners-Lee introduces WWW to the public on August 6, 1991.
Internet experiences large growth
In 1993 the Internet experienced one of its largest growths and today is accessible and used by people everywhere in the world.
