      @gcjerryusc Thank goodness, Tony was an artist who took the arts, including his own, seriously enough to show respect for the work that goes into them. He lived in NYC with his wife of 50 years until she died and did not go Hollywood. They were close personal friends with Eva Marie Saint and her lifelong husband, who was a director and just died in the past few years. They did exciting things like go to one another's homes for dinner and played charades and chatted. So he was not the egomaniacal type.

      Save TPC--Trees are very valuable to the earth an us humans-- They are alive and operate --communicate with each other. It is a Divine planned way that they keep other trees alive- and help to grow. When using the 3rd eye that we all have one can see the ''etheric field''' on the outer part of the trees.. and most likely when the sun is just starting to go down. Try to sit on ground or bench and take a view -- you will see the glow that comes . Trees do have spirits -- in the supernatural way- and so much have been learned about them.. Their energy is phenomenal.

    Randall was asked whether his film had been nominated for any Academy Awards and he was not too pleased to say that it had not been. The film in question was "The 7 Faces of Dr. Lau." Until 1981, when the union demanded the creation of an Oscar for Makeup and Hairstyling, in light of "The Elephant Man" and "Raging Bull," there was no Oscar in that category. Despite its use to make stars more attractive from the beginning, the Academy had associated makeup only with horror films. So "Frankenstein" and "The Godfather" were never even nominated for an Oscar for makeup because no award existed in the category. A recent magazine article mentioned that two pre-1981 movies were awarded honorary Oscars for makeup: "Planet of the Apes" and "The 7 Faces of Dr. Lau." So although Randall's film was nominated for no Oscar, but would have been had there been a makeup Oscar, the film did win an Honorary Academy Award.

      ***** That's what I would think, yes, darjoe. The kinescopes from videotaped shows are what could be referred to as second generation copies versus first generation. As far superior as videotape was to kinescopes, a live broadcast would always have to be in better video quality than a prerecorded videotaped show would be, which is what would have to have been used to create the kinescopes.

    “This is a doozer!” says Daly. I haven’t heard that term since primary school in the 60s. Later there was a character named Doozer on Fraggle Rock, and I believe doozer or doozie is a reference to the old Duesenberg automobiles, but it sounds rather archaic today.

    Although John Daly and the panelists said the name of the shoeshine lady as "Bernier" might be pronounced in French, based on her facial features and a hint of an accent (she rarely said more than "yes" or "no"), I think that there is a good possibility that she is Puerto Rican, not French.
    I remember a baseball player of this era named Carlos Bernier. I always heard it pronounced ber-NEAR. He was a star at the top levels of the minor leagues, mostly the Pacific Coast League. In 12 seasons at the top levels, he batted .299. He was the batting champion of the PCL in 1961 with a .351 average. He was also one of the fastest players in baseball. In his first year in the PCL in 1952, he stole 65 bases for the Hollywood Stars while batting .301.
    That performance earned him a trip to the major leagues in 1953. He had a shining moment on May 2, 1953 when he tied a major league record by hitting three triples in the same game (in fact, in consecutive at bats). But overall he had a poor season, batting only .213. He never made it back to the majors. Some baseball historians and observers at the time feel it was because of his hot temper. He was often fined and suspended for his altercations with umpires and opposing players.
    In 1964, it was his last year in the Pacific Coast League with the Hawaii Islanders of the Angels' organization. He batted .294 in 124 games. 1965 was his final year in the minors, playing for Reynosa in the Mexican League. At age 38 he batted .281 in 87 games.
    To this day there is a debate about Carlos Bernier's place in baseball history. It has to do with the breaking of the unofficial but rigidly adhered to color barrier from the mid-1880's until the mid-1940's. When the Dodgers signed Jackie Robinson and some other black players for the 1946 season and brought up Jackie in 1947, other teams did not rush to compete with them. A few followed suit but others dragged their heels. The Red Sox were the last to have a black player on their major league roster, waiting until 1959.
    After Branch Rickey was forced out as General Manager of the Dodgers at the end of the 1950 season, he was hired for the same position in Pittsburgh. At that point, the Pirates hadn't done much in the way of integrating their floundering team. It took Rickey a couple of years to overcome that. But was Bernier the first black player for the Pirates? Many historians say yes, but the Pirates and Major League Baseball say no. Instead, they accord the honor to Curt Roberts who debuted with the Pirates in 1954. Roberts, born in Texas and raised in Oakland (CA) was not Hispanic while Bernier was born and raised in Puerto Rico. Yet four other teams and Major League Baseball recognize black Latino ballplayers as being the first for their teams: Minnie Minoso with the White Sox, Nino Escalera with Cincinnati (along with Chuck Harmon, but Escalera pinch hit one batter ahead of Harmon), Carlos Paula with Washington and Ozzie Virgil Sr. with Detroit.
    Furthermore, many newspaper and baseball magazine accounts listed Bernier among lists of black players, whether within all of "organized baseball", a specific team or a specific franchise. He was treated and harassed as a black player but opposing players and racist fans and even racist umpires. He was sometimes discriminated against in terms of travel accommodations on road trips and occasionally shunned by his own teammates as were other black players in that difficult pioneering time. And a comparison of the photos of Bernier and Virgil show them to be very similar in appearance. An article on the topic provides more details and pictures.

    Life did not end well for Carlos Bernier. Perhaps the lack of recognition for his pioneering efforts contributed to that. Plagued by financial insecurity along with medical and emotional problems, he was homeless near the end that came when he committed suicide in his hometown of Juana Diaz, Puerto Rico on April 6, 1989. Only now is the recognition starting to come. He was named to the Pacific Coast League Hall of Fame in 2004. A chapter of SABR commemorated the 85th anniversary of his birth seven years ago. And the campaign for him to be recognized as the first black player in Pirates history continues.

    Sorry, but Dorothy's big hair does nothing to offset the weakness of her chin. Most of her hair-dos didn't balance her face and made the weakness of her chin more pronounced. Rarely did she have a hair style that drew attention away from her chin. This big 'do' makes the upper part of her head look enormous in comparison to her chin, making it look even less visible. Too bad, because viewed straight-on, she was somewhat cute and charming looking.

I love this show and all the TV and movies from this period, so I understand. But there's something about Bennet's way of ogling women and some of the comments he makes while grinning and drooling.
