Author Topic: What Happened to Phil Hill? Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 12-29-2002 03:34 AM                       Last I knew, we were all waiting to hear his secret for retaining a youthful appearance, as his photo belied his industry experience. Hope we didn't make him mad.  |  IP: Logged Bob Maar (Maar stands for Maartini) Posts: 28608 From: New York City & Newport, RI Registered: Feb 2001 posted 12-30-2002 02:16 PM                        I heard from Phil about six weeks or a little longer.He was taking care of his Dad who had undergone a heart operation, I believe he is in Texas. I miss him he added a lot to the forums.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 12-30-2002 02:30 PM                       Thanks for the news, Bob. I agree. I quite enjoyed Phil's discussion of his experience with Panavision, among others. Hope his dad pulls through okay, that's a tough time. I wish them the best.  |  IP: Logged Bob Maar (Maar stands for Maartini) Posts: 28608 From: New York City & Newport, RI Registered: Feb 2001 posted 01-06-2003 07:12 AM                        Received a note from Phil this morning. He has been going back and forth from California and Texas. He will be getting back to posting eventually. TIM - No Mention  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 01-06-2003 12:36 PM                       Thanks Bob! That's good to know. Did he mention how his dad is doing?  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 02-11-2003 04:02 AM                  To All: I'm sorry, but I've been outta contact and, no Tim, you guys didn't make me mad. I don't get mad, I get even! HHAhahahhaa J/K! While it's true that particular photo belies my "current" looks, I thought it appropriate as it's the one I use on the sex-dating sites. Seriously, that was the only pic I had at hand at the time Brad asked for them. All my "stuff", and I do mean all, is packed away and in storage while I remodel my house. Unfortunately because of some personal issues, I've put the remodel project on hold for the last year or so and have been spending a lot of time in Texas. Until I can post a "current" picture of me, you can sorta get a mind's-eye of me by looking at that picture and doubling my age, weight, and body fat…and "cuteness". Actually, that picture was taken in Vietnam in 1969 so you might have to almost, but not quite, triple my age... and Ummm, don't double the other stuff, I was just kidding… but add about 30 pounds! The only thing that still is the same is, of course, my good looks! ***AND***, I "still" have all my hair and teeth! To squelch the speculation on my "history" (Tim & John!), I finally posted my bio in the "Who The Heck Are You" thread. I hated to do this, but the peer pressure was getting to be too much to bare! I sincerely appreciate all the email good wishes for me and my dad from my many friends on here and I'm looking forward to meeting more of yous. My dad is doing good right now and I am home in Hollywood right now. I will be traveling back to Texas in a few days for another stint. Sincerely, >>> Phil P.S. Heya Brad, I am truly sorry that I have been unable to check out those reflector color temps as we discussed. I know I'm a jerk as I have no idea as to when I can get to them. I sincerely apologize. >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

I just have to picture you looking like Tim.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 02-11-2003 04:30 AM                  Heya Michael, Not quite like Tim, BUT a whole lot cuter! >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Thomas Procyk Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1842 From: Royal Palm Beach, FL, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 02-11-2003 08:52 AM                     Welcome back, Phil!! Your forum pic looks like you've had a few tokes with that Dell Computers kid. (see thread: "Dude, you're going to Jail!") =TMP=  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 02-11-2003 10:21 AM                  Ummmm, Ah, Hmmmmm..... thanks Tom. Is that a 10K in your hand or are you just glad to see me? >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 02-11-2003 06:52 PM                       Heeeeyyy, Phil! Welcome back. Glad to hear you and your father are doing better. Thanks for the bio posting, I'll have to check it out for sure. I guess the jury will be out on that "cuter" business, though... we'll have to wait for your "updated" photo (and a more-recent pix of myself). Michael, go to your room.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 02-11-2003 09:29 PM                        Hey Tom looks like you've had more than a few tokes yourself. I do imagine you as the son of John Pytlak since you both have nearly identical last names (that's all that matters) and both have *blitzed* expressions in your photos.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 02-11-2003 09:47 PM                        We're not blitzed --- just wide-eyed with wonder.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 02-12-2003 12:00 AM                        Blitzed. Your pic was taken at the ShoWest Film-Tech drink where it was reported that you consumed two bottles of tequilla by yourself and downed 7 shots of vodka.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 02-12-2003 06:57 AM                        Rumors! Just with photos to prove it. And I didn't have to drive back to Bally's, just make it alive staggering across Flamingo Road! That tequilla incident was in 1977 at the Churubusco Lab party in Mexico City when I was less "mature". Must have been the altitude.
