59. Hey, I was five years old!
The best part was at the end of every show he would point a cannon at the camera and blast us all at home with Quaker Puffed Rice (or Wheat.) "It's shot from guns!" he'd say.

I would have thought milk, but again, I was young.

86. Dunno exactly.
But I've seen him in roles where he didn't lay it on so thick. He had a long career as a stage actor, probably could sound like anything he wanted.

Cribbed this from imdb.com:
As a young man, George Hayes worked in a circus and played semi-pro baseball. He appeared in vaudeville and on the legitimate stage, primarily in stock companies. Retired in his 40s, he lost much of his money in the 1929 stock market crash and was forced to return to work. He had made his film debut prior to the crash, and continued working steadily until his second retirement in his late 60s. He gained fame as Hopalong Cassidy's sidekick Windy Halliday in many films between 1936-39. Leaving the Cassidy films, he was legally precluded from using the "Windy" nickname, and so took on the sobriquet "Gabby", and was so billed from about 1940. One of the few sidekicks to land on the annual list of Top Ten Western Boxoffice Stars, he did so repeatedly. In his early films he alternated between whiskered comic relief sidekicks and clean-shaven bad guys, but by the later 1930s he worked almost exclusively as a Western sidekick to stars such as John Wayne Roy Rogers and Randolph Scott. After his last film, in 1950, he starred as the host of a network television show devoted to stories of the old West for children, "The Gabby Hayes Show" (1950). Offstage an elegant and well-appointed connoisseur and man-about-town, Hayes devoted the final years of his life to his investments.

66. ''people will be pardoned before there's a trial, just like Iran/Contra''
says it may happen in certain cases, but she's pretty sure he'll pardon for the Plame case

not just Libby, I'll bet

69. Libby will hopefully be in jail before that happens.
They wouldn't dare pardon before November 2006, would they?

You are right. I was thinking it was set for earlier. Wishful thinking. :hi:

79. very convenient how they always stretch things out. can you believe
that frickin Lay trial is still going on, having started a month ago, finally?

how long, for example, has Martha Stewart been OUT of jail? didn't her trial come conveniently during the 04 election?

and remember how Goss/Roberts, etal diddled around with CIA/Senate Intel BS so they had no chance coming up during the election?

no thanks, of course, to the complicit media, for not lifting a FINGER, investigatively

that's why I called the show, to say that our chief problem is the socalled lib media

fascism on the rise, cause of them

84. It's very convenient for them.
It IS a bit strange how quickly they convicted Martha Stewart, but maybe because she cooperated. :shrug:

When Bush is convicted (finally) of crimes, would he still be able to pardon anyone?

85. as long as he's in office, the power of the pardon is total and complete
he could pardon oh, say, Osama bin Laden, Rumsfeld, or any other garden variety murderer pals of his

87. I've never understood that.
Let's let criminals free because they have a connection to the President. Something so wrong about it. They all need to rot in jail. How long before he pardons Abramoff, do you think? A month? Two months?

92. that'll definitely be after November. he can't afford to do it before
the elections

AFA power of pardon, it's in the constitution, for whatever reason, and the power is absolute

they really went after WJC because of some of those he pardoned, but made little stink over 41's Iran/Contra pardons, or his pardon of a HEROIN smuggler, who almost assuredly had ties to terrorists...Aslam Adnan, IIRC...something like that. the justice department was very exercised about that one

93. They always go after WJC.
No matter what he does. His bj was of more interest than any criminal activity of this current administration.

Off topic, but I just read your profile. I just moved from Chicago 2 year ago. :-) I can't wait to get back and visit at the end of April.

106. I had heard that before.
But I still haven't seen it as bad here compared to my growing up in the Midwest. Chicago is actually called the Windy City because of its politicians.

I've seen him a couple of times. There's usually different associations attributed to "Windy City," but it has also been called that because of the politicians.

They tried to move its nest off a building. Much to the chagrin of the people of NYC. It caused quite a stir.

112. Oh! I didn't answer your first question.
Yes. We did have two major snow storms this season. But they were here and gone so quickly, we barely noticed. The last one was a BIG storm. But of course it came on a Saturday and by Monday we were right back to work. Damn thing couldn't wait until Monday. Here's another Windy City story:

77. the only constraint will be the timing of any future trials/convictions on
the electoral process. doesn't look like anything can affect this one coming up, and he might be able to get away with some in between 11/06 and sometime before the 08 elections

I think some of the vulnerable ones have bad news for him, criminally, just as Weinberger, etal, did on poppy, so he's going to HAVE to pardon some of the creeps to save his own skin. whether he cares more about that than what happens to his successors is a question only he knows the answer to
