Robin, somewhere on our theatres,Columbia 1 and 2,Imperial,Didn’t see it here.I mentioned i took about six hours of our theatre reunions from the 1985-86-87 videos that Bill shot most of, and cut them down to a watchable 95 minutes or so of DVD and i sent out invites to the gang from 1972 to about 1980 and i got zero response,I know its summmer,but I think I am finished with reunions! If you or Cathy,Diane or Bill want to meet at a eating spot one day let me know,i will be glad to get there and at least talk about the old days at National Hills Theatre,i am just at a loss for words,last fall we had 10 or 12 show up for a get together,but now i get nothing! I would show them to you all,but heck you would only know Me,The Tinneys,Bill and Tom Weidmeirer. And there is some awful rough language by adults that outta know better.
KOOL KOOL COOL,Thanks Mike.Thats Alright Robin,We all get off-topic now and then!LOL.
okay,Robin.Get cool.
I have to be off topic a minute…I know I told you all that I would be posting your pictures, but my AC unit went out at the house. It is so hot we could not stay here! My brother has let us use a house he owns in Colu,mbia County until I can get the AC replaced. There is no internet there, so I only get to check on my phone. I’ll hopefully be back soon!
Hey,there is some guy on a New Jersey theatre that post something everyday about an AMC theatre up there. I wanted to get on COMMENTARY and say today,May 31 is CLINT EASTWOOD’S BIRTHDAY,HAPPY 80th Clint,PROUD to have shown most of your movies.
Very true Nick,my wife asked my why I spend all my computer time on C.T.? I told because I love it and I met her at the LOEWS CRESCENT,I also told her that I could spend all my time on porno sites would she like that better,she lightened up.Now she comes home and asks me who I have been taking to on C.T.and she even brought me some of the photos that Robin has posted for me.I know this is off-topic but no one on THIS page seems to mind.
Mike, you sent me the photo in your booklet on National Hills remember? And you included a small piece of the screen too. Yes I know we theatre lovers do some weird things…weird to outsiders but totally normal for us!
Robin,Nick and Tlsloews.I was on a mission to get that picture,the DM for Georgia theatres,Jeff Mobley snapped the picture.I took pieces of the screen.I had to do it.It would have been so easy to say,what the heck,It is an old theatre no one cares.I cared and got down there! I also hauled off a pick-up load of stuff from NATIONAL HILLS that was not going to the city dump.Nick,I don’t even remember sending you that picture.Should have been in my red ABC jacket.
Not that it matters, but Jeff Mobley use to date my ex-wife while they were in high school.Small world.theatre world. Robin, you might even know Jeff,sad picture,It was really sad being there.
Hey Mike I saved your photo of the torn screen on my P.C.
You are right Robin,great photo of the torn screen.LOL Mike.
Ouch! I really didn’t need to see that….no offense Mike :) SAD!!!
