Okay.

I found this at a thrift store.

It was only a few dollars so...

...I could not leave it behind. It is something that

I can toss if I decide it is just taking up space.

That is a Mexican double loop holster... my favorite kind.

Whoever made this thing kind of knew what they were doing.

At the very least they copied it from a photograph.

 

I went shopping for some new clothes and although the

price was right, I just couldn't quite pull the trigger.

Denny's...

Atmosphere: 8...

Price: 6...

Service: 10...

Ice Tea: 10...
Seasoned Fries: 10...

Cheeseburger: Ug...

 I was feeling slightly adventurous, but I will stick with the

delicious Grand Slam Breakfast from now on.

I do love Denny's.

Got it!

~ Apocalypse Now: Final Cut ~

Today I found "Leprechaun Returns" and "The Final Wish"

on DVD for five dollars each over at Walmart. Final Wish looks

like a jump scare fest and kind of fun, and I have heard that

Leprechaun is good and stays true to the first movie.

It was just a matter of time until I bought Leprechaun Returns

as I needed it to complete my collection. It is on DVD as are

the rest of my Leprechaun movies.

What I am REALLY excited about and have waited MONTHS for

is the new "Apocalypse Now: Final Cut" on 4K and Blu-ray. This is

supposed to be Francis Ford Coppola's final and ideal version of

this movie. I pre-ordered this movie from the Best Buy store and it

should arrive to The Ranch on the day of the release;

Tuesday, August 27th.

I don't have a 4K player or television but I will put the

Blu-ray and digital copy to good use. 

Apocalypse Now is my all time all time all time

favorite movie and so that I would buy it is a given.

Done and done.

Easter Bunny Homicide.

 

I was watching the old "Father Knows Best" show

 the other day. This episode was from 1956. This is

Bud Anderson taking a little walk down the street.

Oh look! It's Kathy Anderson aka

Kitten not far behind.

A little later Bud is taking his jalopy for a dangerous ride.

What do these pictures have in common? Well.... In the

background of all of them is one of my all time favorite

houses... EVER...

Roger Murtaugh's home from the "Lethal Weapon" movie

series. This house is on Blondie Street at the Warner

Brothers Ranch lot in Burbank California.
(Trivia: That house seen just above the white van is
the home of Darren and Samantha Stevens
from the "Bewitched" television show.)

Who'd a'thunk that thirty-one years after Bud Anderson

went cruising by that Martin Riggs and Roger would be

walking into this house as Roger says, "Riggs, if you

think I'm gonna eat the world's lousiest Christmas turkey

by myself, you're crazy."

Anyway...

This house is on my Holy Grail Visit List although I most

likely never will. If you have ever driven by the Disney

Channel Building on the 134 Freeway in Burbank,

you can see where Roger's house is in relation to that.

Just a couple blocks over.

"I'm too old for this sh_t."

"What."

Today is Avengers Day here at El Rancho De La Tex.

I went to town and bought my Blu-ray copy of 

"Avengers: Endgame".

Tonight!

Borden Cinema!

BE THERE!

I have a couple of these big tin stars. I keep meaning to

hang them up outside so they will get old and rusty.

I figure that I will do that someday.

How to clean the restrooms at Tastee-Freez, Wienerschnitzel

and Hamburger Stand (whatever that is).

 

A while back I had written about and shared a photo of a small

show that I went to see in 2010; Debbie Reynolds in her one

woman show. It was really really good. I had also written

that after the show I was able to meet her and she signed

the program I had purchased. This is the page that she signed.

When you are in the presence of a person like Debbie

Reynolds. you know what true talent and professionalism

looks and feels like.
