I still want some Flubber for my hiking boots, dammit!

Here ya go....

The Absentminded Professor (1961)
Son of Flubber (1963)
Flubber (1997) --- cashing in on the nostalgia angle)


Did that weatherman look anything like Steve McQueen? <G>

aawww, that looks like a cute movie!

what, is Steve McQueen famous for being drunk? a dubious distinction...

why do i feel so out-of-it? LOL!

There was a "Son of Flubber"? I guess that's a better title than "Son of a Mother Flubber".

Steve McQueen is famous for being the toughest guy in the movies. Required viewing: "Bullitt", "The Sand Pebbles", "The Magnificent Seven", "Papillon", and for a laugh, "The Blob".

And now this thread has come full circle...

"The Blob" is classic!

The first time someone told me about The Blob I thought it HAD to be a joke!

From the quotes section, Tilt's link:

Steve Andrews: There must be a house nearby.

Friend: No, Sounds more like a dog.

One of my favorite Steve McQueen movies was his last, "The Hunter." It was an adaptation of a true story about bounty hunter Ralph 'Papa' Thorson. Great film!

Yah, that's the first time I'd ever seen a beanbag gun used. Pretty cool item.

Johnny Knoxville gets shot with a beanbag gun in "Jackass: The Movie", which, by the way, is the greatest movie ever created.

Quite a bit of "free association" going on here this morning!

I liked Steve McQueen in the "Great Escape" especially the part when he tried to get away from the Germans on his motorcycle and ran into the barbed wire fence!

Bit of trivia: During the "motorcycle chase" scene, Steve McQueen played both Hilts, and the German soldier chasing him on another motorcycle.

So he got to crash into the barbed wire at least twice? <G>

No, but he did clothesline himself, lol...

Morning all. Been awhile since I've posted. I've been crazy busy at work. We're smack in the middle of a $40 million dollar capital campaign and preparing for a public announcment and kickoff. Also in the middle of a complete redesign of our institutional Web site and a project to combine our alumni and regular newsletters into one publication with a complete redesign. These are all on top of the regular work load for our three-person communications staff.

Then at home, as some of you already know, I have a pregnant wife with an injured knee. (By the way, she is doing better and is able to drive now: No surgury until after the baby comes)

OK enough complaining from me. What's new here. Are there any threads that I need to see?

Full Plate, there, John.

I'm afraid you'll need to read ALL the threads; each one is as vapidly mindbending as the next (as usual).

Good morning! Looks like a beautiful day out there after all the rain we had yesterday. I'm going on Jmitch's waterfall dayhike with Msilver and Pennys Hiker and it should be great with all the rain we had. See you all later.
