USA (1774.21 miles northeast of Dallas) Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-25-2000 06:08 AM                        I took this picture a while ago and now have the sudden urge to share. This is a real picture of an actual retail establishment in Shrewsbury, MA.  |  IP: Logged Jim Bedford Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 597 From: Telluride, CO, USA (733 mi.

The liquidation portion of the exhibition business should be a growth industry with the bankruptcies and the predicted closing of 10,000 screens in the next couple of years.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-25-2000 10:08 PM                     Hey! Is National Lampoon magazine still in business? They used to have a column called "True Facts" where people used to send in puctures of things like that. If they printed your picture you used to get a free T-Shirt or something like that. {National Lampoon are the people who did Animal House and a few other movies like that. They also had a record, years ago, that had a picture on the cover with a picture of a cute-looking dog with a gun to its head. The caption said, "Buy this record or we'll shoot this dog!"}  |  IP: Logged Bruce McGee Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1776 From: Asheville, NC USA... Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 10-30-2000 10:23 PM                     Another National Lampoon album was "The Missing White House Tapes" released in the mid 70's. Still have it. It was a highly edited and pretty well done item. Also full of profanity. I found my copy in the Baptist college bookstore!  |  IP: Logged
