My and DhiaDuet's Summer Vacation Itinerary
When you get to Lawrence, you might want to see how things have changed
at some of the sites Herk Harvey used in his movie "Carnival of Souls". http://www.themoviedistrict.com/carnival-of-souls-1962/ I don't quite share the enthusisiam some film buffs have for Carnival, but I can see how it influenced the work of George Romero and David Lynch. |

I am goin back to the wagon folks, these boots are killin me! There were 'boot hills' everywhere, unless those people were buried bare footed. If some of those dead people were wearing nice looking boots/shoes, they probally got 'swapped out' |

Boot Hill wasen't called Boot Hill untill the 1920s when the western movies made that name popular. names and places Boot Hill ..there are at least 38 Boot Hills out there. |

If some of those dead people were wearing nice looking boots/shoes, they probally got 'swapped out' I remember an episode of The Big Valley in which Nick and Heath had a bet and the loser had to break in the new boots of the other. Nick lost. I still laugh recalling Heath slumped in a rocking chair on the porch with his hat pulled down over his eyes snoozing while Nick paced back and forth on the porch wearing Heath's new boots cursing all the way. After all was said done Nick couldn't walk for a week due to blisters etc. and Heath strutted around in his new comfortable broken in boots with Cheshire cat grin on his face for the rest of the show. I wish they made television shows as good as then. The libtards got rid of westerns and replaced them with junior has two daddies fare. |

I wish they made television shows as good as then. The libtards got rid of westerns and replaced them with junior has two daddies fare. TV westerns were one damn show after another with of the same old sets, same old cactus, the same old dull look. People wanted the colors of NOW (circa 1968). Few people bought an expensive color set to have the greyscales "enhanced" to various shades of sepia and beige. Star Trek was largely an old school TV western dressed up with more interesting visuals and bright primary colors. Even Spock started out as that familiar TV Western cliche -- the half breed who doesn't quite fit into either world. Baloney. For the real reasons behind the decline of the western see http://www.insp.com/blog/times-changed-tv-westerns/ That article is mostly wrong. While it's true that the networks were trying reduce violence, they DID have looser standards for popular shows. Hawaii 5-0 and Starsky & Hutch could still have shootouts and pistol whippings, Bonanza, not so much. Westerns were also dying in the theaters. They actually were dying out in the early 60s until temporially revived by the spaghetti westerns. And there's practically no censorship now. Where's the westerns? We have zombie splatterfests, serial killer splatterfests, biker splatterfests, yet hardly a single western. The audience has changed. Live action cartoons sell, not westerns. We live in an entertainment world which owes more to Herschell Gordon Lewis, George Romero and Roger Corman than it owes to John Ford. Demographics and the libtard "anti-violence" agenda were the back breakers. Known as the "Rural Purge" in the industry. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rural_purge More violence than ever, now. Westerns are still moribund. As far as demographics go, advertisers prefer young people for a perfectly sensible reason. Older people make their buying decisions based largely on expirence. They're harder to bull****. Kids don't know better, yet. |

Some of them, their boots were placed under their heads (in the coffin) so as to serve as pillows. |

Many years ago listening to Bo Gritiz on the shortwaves I recall him saying Lawrence (home of the Univ. of Kansas) has one of the largest gay populations in the nation. The "Kansas Comet" AKA Gale Sayers ran 99 yds. for a touchdown against the Univ. of Nebraska Cornhuskers in Lincoln. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9omxdn9HAY I know it's so because my parents were in the stands watching and told me all about when they got home. Gale Sayers has been diagnosed with dementia. Very sad. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...-with-dementia |

Kinda nice for them to be able to lay claim to having the all time leading NFL rookie running back. And they stole him from Omaha North, probably on the basis of having a great coach and a superior football program George |
