That fellow sure looks like Tim Holt, rather than Lew Ayres. (I just heard someone yell, "Make up!")

Welcome back everybody. I was starting to get withdrawal pains.

I missed something. When did Robert Culp die? I was surprised to see his photo today.

The latest I read, Robert Culp had a heart attack, and that's why he fell while out walking.

My first memories of him are from I Spy. What a wonderful show that was.

Another March 25th birthday: Bruno VeSota (1922-1976).

Rather than to take up space here, I started a separate thread on Mr. VeSota in The People of Film.

Slainte to Nancy's Da!
I think we should all stage a little party for Himself's centennial!
Nancy, how would your Da like his party to be?
Tea, or cider, or whiskey, or beer?
And what sorta cake?

Oops. Sorry to overlook actor Bruno VeSota yesterday. I was not familiar with his name but the face says it all:

Check out ChiO's fine tribute to the actor.

Also Happy Birthday to Nancy's dad in heaven today.

He was a "tea" sorta guy...with a liberal lacing of something a wee bit stronger. And he loved yellow cake with butter brickle ice cream. He honestly never met a stranger. You were welcomed and patted on the shoulder, and then told a ribald joke or two. He looked a lot like Barney Fife, and had the same attitude. I miss him every day! Thanks for the thoughts, friends, he would be delighted.

now back to our scheduled programming....

Say, does anyone else see a resemblance between Bruno VeSota and Jack Black?
