's' probably Bopp trolling. LOL

Seems like you have quite a bit of salable items. The easiest is to sell the the bulk to a dealer where you will be getting wholesale prices.

If you want to be more involved, open an E Bay store.
More time, effort and money.

When my son was in his early teens, I was given a bunch of autographed Star Trek pictures.
A few years later I asked him about them and he said he sold them on E Bay right after I gave them to him. LOL

I have a few scripts from when I worked on TV Peyton Place. I'll save them for the memories.

I need to take a break from the nasty 0Bots.

Maybe later

No. I was on the Sound dept crew. My dad was a Sound Mixer and he got me in the 695 IATSE union when I was 18yo. I only worked summers since I was in school until 25+.

I went looking for the Peyton Place script and found the script from Caprice which I worked on the previous summer. Doris Day was hurt during filming and I was farmed out to several shows for a few days at a time incl. Lost in Space one of the James Coburn Flint movies, Judd for the Defense, screen tests for Flim Flam Man. Lots of fun and great money. see link for Caprice.

I worked at Disney in Burbank one summer in post production.

That sounds like you did some cool jobs and met some cool people.

My co-worker is out in LA right now trying to break her 12 y.o. grandson into the acting biz. She'll be back at work Wed. It'll be interesting to see what she thinks of her trip.

The two places in the U.S. that I plan NEVER to visit are LA and NY. Much too big with too many folks for me. I love my rural area with not too many people or cars too much! Heck, Montgomery, Al is a small city and it's too big for me...lol

You don't think he was a traveling disco DJ in polyester pants with a
mirror ball show? Just seems it maybe a possibility. dunno. I never post
to em, just pass as I passed this post I heard "night fever" and saw a
flashing mirror orb.


Oh well, maybe best not to get involved any more than this.

Grits, I thought about posting to you before, as I have family on the
WVA/VA border and wonder are you near I-95? I am sorta country, sorta
city, never found a place I fit in really well. Love the hiking in the
mountains and cars a mile apart. That is not on I-95 for the most part
though, but off the beaten track.

Excuse this interlude, just had a brave moment and thought to say...I
thought you were in NC...but I may have missed some things as I don't
read all.

Hi Eve...

I'm in central Alabama...just north of Wetumpka which is just north of Montgomery...lol

"If" I could choose which state I would like to live in, I would pick the rural areas of Virginia. I've only been through there once but fell in love with the beauty of the state.

I've lived in Alabama most of my life but have lived in South Carolina for a brief period and Georgia a couple of times.

I spent most of my younger life wanting to escape the south and go where the "action" was but the older I get the more I love the south. I would NEVER want to live outside the south now. Good people here...

Well to be sure Grits, it is lovely as I did grow up there and I know some
areas that are so rural and explored in my late teens, early twenties,
some of us used to call it "no man's land" for hardly a man or woman
lived there. If they did was miles apart. That was backwoods and even
could get close to the West Virginia border yet was it ever up and over to
get there.

One place I loved was a waterfall, a park...no one much went there as it
was so rural...yet us who lived there did more so. A hike about two miles
there, two miles back and nicely kept by the park service. Little bridges
and the trail ran on either side of a big creek with huge rocks in the
middle. On one side the way said to the waterfall take this path, and one
walked on the other side of the creek on the way back. If one wanted to
they could jump in and go swimming at the bottom of the waterfall...it
was not huge, but so pretty...just the perfect size.

Hikers from the Appalachian trail came through every spring and summer
and collected their mail at the local post office...many had companion
dogs with them. I guess now they get their mail other ways...kinda takes
away from the more natural way.

I was like you in a way, I more felt though I lived in hicksvilles and wanted
to go to the big city but once there I found out it was hard to acclimate.
Though I did. Now I am quite far south, but it's not exactly the same
type of southern thing I was used to. I would if I could and had strength
to go back and fit in again. I could go back, yet the odds are against me
at this time...folks say, oh don't come back here, ain't nuthiin here
anymore. Meaning there is less work, the economy more depressed in
the area of were relatives are. It would be difficult and now I have moved
a lot and am tired of it and what to do with all this "stuff". Leaves me
with a big sigh. Plus have things now that am used to now am older,
health, one who cares long time I have some odd physical ailments...and
where I am from all that is left is coal miners, laid off cola miners, retired
coal miners and a then the health care to take care of them in those hard
years of labor.

Well, I said enough. Thank ya though. Maybe someday I move up to
where more southerly like folks are, I will have a bit of frustration
thought. Always did but did it before can do again.

Anyway, I sure was off the mark about your whereabouts, guess it was
someone else I know of one other I messaged with here, yet seemed
more than one. Maybe they don't post anymore or very often.

Thanks!
~Eve

I think you are thinking about Melinda who lived in NC and for the life of me I can't think of what handle she used on here (getting the ole' gray cells to remember things seems to be getting more difficult...lol)...

I'm not sure what part of Florida you are in, but my daughter loves living in Gainesville. She's been living in Florida (Pensacola, Tallahassee, and now Gainseville) since 1995 when she finished high school. I've begged her to move back to Alabama or even to Atlanta where most of her hubbies family lives, but she is in love with Florida...sigh

She just got a new job at University of Florida. She loves it (talked to her today) even though she is a die hard Seminole fan...lol

Maybe. I can't seem to grasp the name either, I got dangling chads.
Always somethin.

I am in central FL on the Gulf side..closer to Tampa, yet above it...wish it
would stop creeping north...but no way to go south much. They could
make a Venice of sorts, water in the bay only ten feet.

Pensacola is nicer IMO but they get hit a lot or used to by the storms.
I can understand why she likes it there. Further south of Florida and
different parts of FL, east coast, etc....lots of different climates.
Pensacola is one of the better or used to be. I always liked Destin too.
It's been awhile since I visited, but like it a lot better.

Yet sounds like she has lived in different parts of FL, but more
north...central to south it's a different climate. One reason the area
around Orlando was purchased for less. Though many will trample
through that awful heat to see Cinderalla....It's a wonder she does not
melt and how do they keep her so fresh looking...is there a fan under her
skirts? Those poor folks who have to go around in Tigger suits too...I
think they must change places with other workers every half an hour or
they would surely keel over.

I never ever will go in the midst of summer again. Plus it sorta got old
once ya go ten times.

Hope your daughter keeps safe, though ya miss her, she may still come
back, never know could change her mind.

awww, Grits, I went to a few boards and I could smack myself...it's April
who is in NC and I post to her often...I sure am in a doh mode lately. I
am gonna blame it on the Jupiter conjunction gearing up. Geez I
probably will go blank. Best get off this board since it's not really a techy
conversation...I don't do much of that techy stuff. Thanks bopp!
