1971

I entered another time warp the other day; Friday. This time it was 1971. It lasted for about 10 minutes. I was at Chili's with Sue when it happened. Sometimes it only lasts for seconds. Sometimes longer. Usually, I'm alone, but this time there were people around. I'm only mentioning it because no one actually reads this thing. It's not something that you discuss with people. They'll think you're wacko.

Phyllis Diller died today. That's kind of sad. The end of an era.

Wenn Der Sommer Kommt Lyrics

Wenn der Sommer kommt und die Sonne lacht
Dann wird alles wieder gut
Dann beginnt die Zeit die uns Freude macht
Und wir haben frischen Mut
Dann geh ich mit dir in den Tag hinein
Und am Himmel singen die Vögelein
Wenn der Sommer kommt und die Sonne lacht
Dann wird alles herrlich sein

Wenn der Sommer kommt und die Felder blühn
Ja da ruft es uns hinaus
Zu den Bächlein dort wo die Fischlein ziehn
Dort sind Fuchs und Has zu Haus
Und dann singen wir mit der Vogelschar
Und der Wind singt mit und zerzaust das Haar
Wenn der Sommer kommt und die Sonne lacht
Dann wird alles wunderbar

Wenn der Sommer kommt übers weite Land
Und die Fenster alle auf
Und die Menschen schaun zu dem blauen Band
Dort am Himmelszelt hinauf
Bunte Blumen blühn an dem Wiesenrain
Und im grünen Gras spieln die Käferlein
Wenn der Sommer kommt und die Sonne lacht
Dann wirld alles herrlich sein

Wenn der Sommer kommt und die Sonne lacht
Dann wird alles wieder gut
Dann beginnt die Zeit die uns Freude macht
Und wir haben frischen Mut
Dann geh ich mit dir in den Tag hinein
Und am Himmel singen die Vögelein
Wenn der Sommer kommt und die Sonne lacht
Dann wird alles herrlich sein
Dann wird alles herrlich sein
Dann wird alles herrlich sein

21st Precinct - Old Time Radio



Broadcast from July 7th 1953 through November 1st 1956 on the CBS network.

21st Precinct was a very dramatic police drama. CBS decided to use New York City as the backdrop for this series and to focus on the happenings in an actual police precinct. The premise was to put the listener into the drama from the opening phone call until the final report was written.

The 21st was described as
"just lines on a map of the city of New York. Most of the 173,000 people wedged into the nine-tenths of a square mile between Fifth Avenue and the East River wouldn't know if you asked them that they lived or worked in the 21st."
The detail was made up of 160 patrolmen, eleven sergeants, and four lieutenants, under the command of one captain - Frank Kennelly. It was mentioned in each episode's closing that, "21st Precinct is presented with the official cooperation of the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association an organization of more than 20,000 members of the Police Department, City of New York."

The Captain was the primary character and also acted as the narrator. Three actors played the Captain's role: Everett Sloane as Kennelly for the first 109 episodes and returned briefly in episode 135; James Gregory as Vincent Cronin for episode 109-144; and Les Damon as Thomas Keough starting in episode 145 through the remainder of the series. In supporting roles were Ken Lynch as Lt. Matt King and Harold Stone as Sgt. Waters. Santos Ortega appeared frequently as Lt. Patrick "Red" Gorman.

I really should start hanging out here more. I spend most of my time of Wordpress, but it gets obnoxious sometimes with the comments that people leave.
