hmmmm.....

So today, I was going to write a paragraph or two about Wonder Woman. However, my darling sister says that my blog is boring since I dont talk about me. So, just this once, I am going to tell you why I like writing about things like Wonder Woman.
I used to just tell people that I like the seventies. I had to stop saying that though, because most people thought that I just liked the artificial 70's because I "didnt really know what it was like". Well, I know that there was some pretty bad stuff going on in the 70's, like drugs. However, the 60's and 70's, and even the 80's are years that gave birth to some really wonderful song artists and tv shows. The Partridge Family is one of those. It is a little bit fake, but it shows what the ideal life (to me) would have been like. There was great music, lessons to be learned, and hilarious situations.
So, I would have to say that I like writing about things like the Beatles, and Wonder Woman, because I like hearing about things that I like. The time I spend every day writing about things I enjoy is time that I am not stressed out about school work, cleaning the house, or other problems. It gives me time to relax before I tackle things I need to get done.
For the rest of you that still think my blog is boring, I just want to say that blogging is more fun to me this way, and it is the only reason I still blog. I am getting sick of always writing about how my day is going, and I am not always interested in hearing about somebody else's life that just happens to be just like mine. It's not like I dont want to hear how my sister's husband is doing, etc, it's just that I want to read about something outside of our everday lives.

Yours, mine and ours.

Yours, mine and ours in a 1968 movie directed by Melville Shavelson, with Henry Fona, Licille Ball, and Van Johnson. Before it was released, it had three other workin titles: The Beardsley Story, Full House, and His, Hers, and Theirs. It is based on the story of Frank and Helen Beardsley, although Desilu Production bought the rights to the story long before Helen's autobiography, Who gets the drumstick? was released to bookstores. Screenwriters took the opportunity to write in several classic I Love Lucy- styled stunts that in most cases have no basis in the actual lives of the Beardsley family, before Melville Shavelson and Mort Lachman took over primary writing duties. However, it enjoyed great commercial success, and even the Beardsley's loved it, though Frank would say that the version in the film was not exactly true. This film was later remade in 2005 with actors Dennis Quaid and Renee Russo as Frank and Helen Beardsley.

The Rock 'n Roll Express

The Rock n Roll Express was a professional wrestling tag team comprised of Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson that was popular in the eighties. It was formed in 1983 in Memphis. Ricky and Robert were origianlly paired together as an alternative to the popular team of Steve Keirn and Stan Lane, The Fabulous Ones, when they couldnt wrestle in certain towns. The gimmick of The Rock n Roll Express was a couple of high flying wrestlers who loved glam metal music, as it was a popular genre of muisc at the time. They soon made their way to mid-south wrestling where they started a legendary feud with the Midnight Express that would carry on into the NWA.

Adam-12

Adam-12 was a television show that ran from 1968 to 1975 on NBC. The show was centered around the daily activities of a pair of Los Angeles police officers, Pete Malloy (played by Martin Milner) and Jim Reed (Kent McCord). It included Sergeant William "Mac" MacDonald (played by William Boyett). The show was produced by Jack Webb, who also helped create Dragnet and Emergency!. The series was considered a spin-off of Webb's Dragnet 1967, and the Reed and Malloy characters appeared on episodes of the parent program.
The officers worked out of the Central Division of the LAPD. The show used situations from realy LAPD case files. . The title of the show is derived from the radio car unit number of the officers, 1(for Central Division, though Rampart Division was actually used as the location), A(dam) to designate it as a two man patrol, and 12 to designate their patrol area.
As with Dragnet, Adam-12 episodes were based on incidents in the actual case files from the LAPD. At the end of each episode the "names have been changed..." statement was shown (but not narrated) at the start of the ending credits.
