Pretty much every day. Slow loading and timing out any time of the day. Some days, it's OK and others, I just give up and stop trying.

Growing up in the 70's, they used to show these Frankie and Annette movies, as well as Elvis movies on Saturday afternoons and I'd watch them all. Loved those movies back then. Thanks for bringing back the memories.

Frankie and Annette made 11 movies together:

I remember many of them going to the Drive-In when I first got my license: 1968. Good memories indeed!

Pontiac Banshee II, 1968. The Banshee II was a follow-up to the earlier Banshee series and used an aerodynamic fiberglass body over stock Firebird inner panels, it was fitted with a 400ci V8. In 1969, the Banshee II was modified with white paint and red graphics and was re-presented the Firebird Fiero

Banshee IV

The Pontiac Banshee is a line of concept cars designed by Pontiac, assuming the role previously established by General Motors' Firebirds of the 1950s. Five Banshee "dream cars" were fabricated through 1988 as design exercises intended to establish exterior and interior themes that could be modified for production versions of Pontiac sports and performance cars. Banshee was also the leading candidate for Pontiac's version of the Camaro before being named Firebird

Carroll Shelby wanted to add a limited run of Shelby GT Mustangs powered by Ford's new Boss 302 engine. To make them stand out, they would only be available in this color scheme. One prototype was built (a blue one) but the plan never materialized.

What might have been. The red one is a prototype as is the yellow one, but it has one HUGE difference . . . a production VIN. The only one to have it.

When Lee Iacocca saw how much Semon "Bunkie" Knudsen was spending on Ford's racing activities, not only did he put the kibosh to that but also to Knudsen himself.

During the 1800s there were only 541 Buffalo left in all of the USA. During that period, a handful of ranchers gathered remnants of the existing herds to save the species from extinction. As of 2010 the count is up to between 400,000 and 500,000.

I think I have seen this movie at least 50 times. 10 of which in theaters including seeing it in 70mm in the largest theater in the world: Radio City Music Hall. Needless to say it is one of my favorite movies.

Remember I said I had gone to San Franciso for a vacation and while we were there, we did everything. But looking at this photo - I can't remember if we rode on the cable cars. I think not.
