Hello to all

I've been dealing with some health issues, so I haven't been posting in awhile. I'm going to be OK so you need not worry. Last May I lost a job that I held for ten years. It was a good one, had everything you'd want from a job these days. Since it's been a struggle, and I needed therapy to get through it. So like I said things are getting better now.

Meanwhile, here's a videoI've posted on Youtube. It doesn't really deal with movies, but in someways there's a hint of it anyways.

Ten points to anyone who figures out what that means. And that's why this is for Doug...because he'll probably nail it......

Comments appreciated.....

Hi Chip

I did a restoration on a set of Ludwigs many years back. Stripped them down to shells, took the lugs off and refinished them from white to gold sparkle. Your's look great. Any before pics?

Old original color at 2 minutes 30 seconds.

Hi Chip,

I'm very glad to hear that things are improving.

Nice video, really enjoyed it. Do you do all your restorations in your screening room?

You always give me too much credit.....

Bang the Drum Slowly....Tin Drum.....Flower Drum Song....

OHHH NO! Doug looses a round of DOUBLE JEOPARDY

LOL

And the correct answer is:

If you LISTEN to the music I played, although not precise, it was my take on the GENERAL CINEMA POLICY TRAILER music from the old days - whereas the GCC formed a projector, and the words came out of the letter G as a lens shooting to the screen.
