Comments: RW -- I am getting the worx at WORX. If I find the right picture, I'm getting my short summer do. Your mom came in the office yesterday to drop off some Avon books. I hadn't seen her for awhile. Sandra - Worx has not moved yet; the move is suppose to be the end of March is all goes according to plan. Happy Easter to you, too. I'm wearing long sleeves Sunday (and maybe a coat, too). Oh, I remember a little later western called The Virginian. I liked that alot, too, and Our Miss Brooks, and My Little Margie, and the Ann Southern Show. These women were great comedians.
Comments: It was both the name of the character and the show. It starred Gene Berry and is another classic western.
Comments: Was Bat Matterson the name of a show or just the character?
Comments: Rod wins the prize - - It was Steve McQueen who starred in "Wanted: Dead or Alive" & it is Nick Adams who starred in "The Rebel". These are great memories & ya'll are remembering some really enjoyable Fri & Sat night viewing!
Comments: I thought Nick Adams was the Rebel but you could be right, I don't depend on the memory too much any more.
Comments: The Rebel was the show with steve McQueen. Linda, I hope you get the works at The Worx. LOL
Comments: The Rifleman starred Chuck Connors. Steve McQueen played a bounty hunter, I think it was called Wanted, Dead or Alive. Also, I think Jingles was played by Andy Divine but can't remember the show. Another old western we watched was F Troop with Forrest Tucker and another was Broken Arrow and starred Michael Anseara(sp) who was married to Barbara Eden. Since we only had one TV and these were two of Dad's favorites we watched them every week.
Comments: "The Rifleman", Steve McQueen! Linda have fun this weekend and "Happy Easter"
Comments: Tow small bits of history about Topper and Stand By Me. The St Bernard in Topper was raised by a lady name Bee Knight who is a cousin of Linda's Dad. She raised St Bernard's, New Newfoundlands, Bernese Mountain Dogs and Papillons, all running loose together. Her kennel was called Sanctuary Woods and was an hours drive from the highway up in the mountains. We had one of her Papillons for 15 years, couldn't have asked for a better pet or friend. As for Stand By Me, that was filmed here in Eugene, Brownsville and Triangle Lake. Most of it was filmed in a large warehouse here but the town setting was in Brownsville, about 45 mins from here. I was hired to drive truck for the scenery and made darn good money for the 4 weeks I worked for them. I never got to meet anyone in the movie but it was still fun.
Comments: Sandra -I don't know if WORX has moved yet. I guess I better find out since I have an appt. Sat. I loved "Gunsmoke" with James Arness. I watched it until the series ended. I also watched "Wagon Train." I also watched "Have Gun Will Travel," "The Rifleman," and the one with Steve McQueen (can't remember the name). Later, I liked "Little House on the Prairie." I cried alot at many of their episodes. Michael Landon was good at creating better than average tv shows. I liked "Bonanza," too.
Comments: Linda, has the Worxs moved their shop yet?
Comments: I just finished talking with Amy & here's the add you can send your cards, letters & notes to: Christie Torbett C/O Amy Bailey 6306 Jessica Way Rowlett, TX 75089 She asked that everyone wait until after Tues (3-25) to call or visit as they have to get her settled & lots of details taken care of first.
