MEMORY TEST

[joanmcq]

I lived alone with my cats & dog in a big house for quite a while. I sing all sorts of stuff to them. Constantly. Now that I don't live alone, I warn roommates of this before they move in.

>>I haven't got any idea.<<

You are not alone. According to the headlines today, that's one of the big problems with the economy--it is no longer true that, "Every five seconds of every working day, somebody buys a new Chevrolet!"

The headlines are retarded. I think what's wrong with the economy is that there was a long period where "Every five seconds of every working day, somebody buys a new Chevrolet!"

Detroit got pretty comfortable with the bulk of Americans buying crap that they couldn't afford like they're entitled to luxury. Shake that MasterCard money tree! You deserve to have nice things!

Unfortunately, our government has the same adolescent view of money management.

Sorry about the off topic rant, I'll exercise some restraint and shut up.

[Margaret CPA in OH]

I knew that I was in august company on this board. Imagine the years of wisdom among us! Well, imagine the years, anyway... I am over 60 and got 19 correct. Missed the Candid Camera one by "that much!"

[Catherine]

I knew the answers to these ones:

7. C - Pants On Fire

10. E - Oh My

16. G - John, Paul, George, Ringo

18. B - Cause I eats me spinach

20. F - Melt In Your Mouth Not In Your Hand

Most of the rest I hadn't even heard of. (I'll be 29 next month)

They're so CUTE when they're that little!! ;-)

[Eric]

They're so CUTE when they're that little!! ;-)

:P

[Julie]

I got them all, and I'll be 49 tomorrow. Howdy Doody I only know from my husband singing it (and some picture books I had when I was very small), and I became acquainted with Dobie Gillis only when Channel 58 started up with all day reruns of Dobie Gillis, Mr. Ed and Car 54.

I got all 20, and I am 'only' 48. Of course Superman I saw in reruns, Pepsodent I guessed, I've never seen Dobie Gillis but anyone who knows popular culture should know Maynard G. Krebs, & I know music pretty well (a least anything recorded before I turned 40 and that isn't rap). My laundry day song is "ITS.... laundry dooty time, Its laundry dooty time, lets get out the grime, its laundry dooty time!"

Lets all sing along!

[RoyDaleOne]

Who know what evil lurks in the heart of men? The Shadow knows.

Did I get that right?

Who played Green Arrow's side kick?

Boston Blackie?

[TAXBILLY]

Green Arrow's sidekick was Speedy.

I got them all, just wonder why Kukla, Fran and Ollie were not in there somewhere? I still remember my excitement waiting for them to come on........Lord am I OLD.....

[joanmcq]

Heck I remember Kuka, Fran & Ollie. I think they were on almost as long as Captain Kangaroo. Jeez, now that's stirring up my old brain cells.

Of course my back acre is flooded because I can't remember when I turn the water on to irrigate the garden, and it must've been on for a week or so.

And my roommate didn't know that, and went out to grade and now I have a backhoe sunk up to its axels in the muck.

Sigh.

[RoyDaleOne]

Ah.... the Dragon Lady...such memories.... with Caption ??? Easy???

[Eric]

I got them all, and I'll be 49 tomorrow.

:bday:

[Lion EA]

I loved Kukla, Fran, and Ollie. Did you have Ding Dong School with Miss Frances? I miss my Good Humor Man.

[PapaJoe]

And all the old westerns - Hopalong Cassidy & Roy Rogers. Does anybody remember who his two sidekicks were?

[jainen]

>>who his two sidekicks were<<

I remember Jingles, but I forget who he was with.

[JRS]

"I remember Jingles, but I forget who he was with."

Wild Bill Hickock?

[JohnH]

As long as we're going down memory lane, here's one I remember from when I was a kid. Can anyone tell me why I thought Richard Boone's character in "Have Gun, Will Travel" had an unusual first name? (It seemed odd to me even as a youngster, but for years I thought his first name was "Wire").

[PapaJoe]

His business card said "Have gun, will travel. Wire Paladin," It meant send him a telegram. I don't remember his first name.

[JohnH]

You're exactly right.

http://www.hgwt.com/hgwt2.htm

His name was never revealed in the entire series, and "Paladin" was a nom de guerre given to him by "Smoke", the gunfighter he killed in the initial episode..

[JRS]

It took me this long to remember where I had seen this website. (Probably a senior moment.) But, those remembering the "Old Westerns" should enjoy this:

Thanks for the link. It was great to remember those cowboys and their shows.

[joelgilb]

Holy Cow Batman!
