I’m on Spring Break! BTW….I have a homework assignment for you! If you’re still going to try and come over Saturday, take a few minutes and write down ANY and ALL names you can think of. Addresses too if you have them. I’ve got a couple of ideas on how to get started, but I need yall’s help!!!
Oh, I’m not gonna lie…I could only do the easy part. I could get the movies threaded up and started. I could even change the lenses, but if anything ever went wrong I wouldn’t know what to do! I wouldn’t have any idea how to take all those little cans of film and turn them into one big movie! LOL
I know we had something in 70mm when I was there, but I can’t remember what it was. I’m afraid we didn’t pay attention to details like that — we just took it for granted that Bill would play whatever showed up. I only remember it because it came in different cans.
Talking about the cans of film brought back a lot of memories.
You know I remember when we had Return of the Jedi they made Bill lock the film in the office every night!
That is great and sad at the same time about the theatre being on tv. I’m not a big Tiger, golf, or Masters fan, so I haven’t seen it.
Hahaha…I meant on here…that we had run everybody off of CT! We knew about the show and Bill’s aunt, so everybody knew yall would have to leave early. It was too short though…that’s why I want us to get together again. It was a lot of fun!
Yea…I was wondering if we ran everybody off! Well, you can come over earlier if you want to or come back after the show. I think some of Brianna’s friends are spending the night, so we’ll probably be up most of the night!!! Cathy is excited about getting together again. I think Diane is coming and I need to call Bill. I think I’m going to get somebody else to call Lisa…maybe they can find out what the problem is.
I know what you mean…the date has already changed. Cathy, Diane, and Kim could not come this Saturday. I had not called Bill yet but I was going to. Now it’s going to be on April 10th, around 4 ish. It’s going to be for my daughter’s birthday too, so I’m letting everybody know and hopefully some can make it. If this doesn’t work out I WILL CALL YOU and work on another day!
I’m still working on getting a better picture of Columbia 1 & 2 up. The one I posted is not that good, but I can’t get any of the others you sent to look any better. Just wanted to let you know I haven’t forgotten…just not happy with another one yet!
Mike…I really enjoy doing this and it doesn’t take that much time. Just mark the pictures you like and want posted. I am having yall over again soon — was thinking about Saturday??? — I can scan any pictures you want me to. I can go back and edit and post them later.
I remind the other girls (especially Cathy) all the time. Cathy keeps telling me she’s coming on here, but she never does! I do know what you mean.
I was so happy to get my little piece of history in the mail today —-my screen!!! Then I had to look at the pictures, how sad. I’m putting these pictures on for you Mike. I don’t want to even think about them. I just want to remember the place the way it was.
Wow…I’m going to hate to see those, but I will post them. And I do want my screen! Do you work most weekends? Looking at a cookout on Sat., April 3rd. Can you make that? BTW…we’re setting you up an email account!!!
Nick and tlsloews are welcome too:)
I don’t remember that movie while I was there, but I was in and out due to circumstances beyond my control :)
I do remember the egg chairs! We didn’t have them in the lobby though. I think they were in the office we had talked our city manager into letting us use. We thought they were so funny.
I was there when they put the games in that little area you’re talking about. We had a hard time getting used to that at first. They had one of the games turned up too loud and every few minutes it would just blare out DRAGON SLAYER… scared the crap out of us! hahaha
Sorry tlsloews…I meant to put your name on that. Yes I was responding to you :)
Good idea….I need to call Bill to see if he can make it Saturday.
If you’re serious email me and I’ll give you my address. I don’t mind posting pictures for you :)

Yea…a half page ad might not fit in my scanner. Kinkos or someplace with a copy machine could probably shrink it…then I could scan and post it.
