The Nostalgia Thread

[hiway29]

I would hate to attribute Tom Cruise's qualities to 'right brain thinking'. I think he's just sorta whacked out, and those qualities seem to apply to any number of left brain and right brain types.

I don't now enough about the subject to speak with any authority, but I have strived to 'tap' into right brain resources for my work. I can assure you I won't be jumping up and down on any couches. (little joke there)

I also wouldn't ascribe liberal/conservative, democrat/republican, socialist/fascist, or any other opposing world views. I think we're talking about different cognitive factors that make up many of those ideas. Seems to me that all stripes of people love to mouth off without much thought, and many mouth off after MUCH thought-we may just not agree with them.

I agree with your thoughts on why the world needs both left and right brained folks.

OK, OK I got the second theme now. One of the stars is doing rather well on a new show on CBS. Once a doctor, now a Fed!

As for 5/4 songs, two others that come to mind are Dave Brubeck's "Take Five" and Jethro Tull's "Living in the Past."

Okay, I'll stop talking about guitars if I must.

This one is a show I loved, and it will be easy no doubt. HERE

And this one I loved because it was quirky. HERE

(both are mp3's)

I think you all know them so. The first is Mission Impossible and the second is Northern Exposure.

I'll be back later, I have some posts to listen to links for on this page.

[ChattyKathy]

Sudo,

I think I have some of both sides. It was cool to think about that stuff.

I better look for something else to link maybe.

Wait, I have one. I may have done this before. HERE

If you need hints I'll give them to you but I already have if you were looking. :)

Kathy,

One question... did you like that TV show? Watch it all the time?? It seemed so much more a little boy show as opposed to a little girl show. And I COULD be bluffing you know.. I might not know the theme song AT ALL but fishing for clues! <_>

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Darn!! That's another one that's very familiar but that I can't place right away. I'm sure I watched this one!

Yes, I actually did watch it. I didn't fit the description expected of girls. :)

You must stop doing that. It will feel really bad in the morning. :unsure:

[ChattyKathy]

SaintGeorge, I just have to give you a clue. One of the actors in that series was married to Ethel Merman for a couple months max.

(as he goes, oh great, like I'll really know who that was)

I'm outta here for a bit, maybe a long bit.

[hiway29]

Got that show in one note. It came on Tuesday night, right after 'Combat'. For my money, the best character was the 3rd billed actor Joe Flynn.

...and his dad once drove a "Taxi".

Got it after you mentioned Combat. I used to watch it too. (actually both shows, cause my dad liked Combat)

[ChattyKathy]

Okay, I think y'all know this one also.

[ChattyKathy]

I think I did this one before also. But maybe we forgot. :)

Again the name I gave it is a tiny hint. MP3 HERE

How could I forget. One of the 3 grew up in my hometown. I did watch it every week and thought it was cool that one of the anti-heros was a girl.

Kathy,

The clue is big hair, right? Its not Charley's Angels, huh? Well, until someone gets yours.. here's a promo I found that ran on ABC. The sound is real low for some reason so turn your speakers up quite a bit and it should play just fine in Windows Media Player. Click HERE! Could that have really been 38 years ago?? :blink:

[hiway29]

For all the times I watched that show, all I really remember is the opening where they're running around that dark alley, for no apparent reason.

[Sudo]

And another thing..

These were young folks who had gotten in trouble with the law, right? So why was it they were now to be trusted??

sudo

[ChattyKathy]

Y'all know mine, yup. Mod Squad.

Sudo, I'm downloading ya now.....

Oh Sudo, how cool!!!!!

Thank you for that clip. That was very nice of you. I know these things we provide (you especially) take some work.

And I think if someone that once was at odds with the law changes, really changes, then they could be perhaps trusted the most. IMHO.

[Sudo]

Kathy,

Re:"Thank you for that clip. That was very nice of you. I know these things we provide ... take some work."

You're very welcome but since you've been posting most of the stuff lately let me ask you... Isn't it fun? You get to personally bring up memories long forgotten and did you know we might be making people mentally healthier? No kidding! Click HERE! and read how we Nostalgiacs are happier healthier people!

Heck, we ought to charge admission to this thread, huh??

"Reminiscence can motivate you," says Bryant. More important, it can give you "a sense of being rooted, a sense of meaning and purpose—instead of being blown around by the whims of everyday life."

That's comforting to know. That what we enjoy doing, and yup, it is fun Sudo, is good for us too. :)

I am positive I've done this one before but I like the music. And I'll get back to my pc with converting to wav files soon. I'm being lazy. Now enjoy

[GeorgeStGeorge]

It's a lot like the "Room 222" theme, but it ain't it.

George

[Sushi]

My first thought is something with John Housemann, so it MUST be right, right?

[ChattyKathy]

SaintGeorge, I'm not familiar with Room 222 theme but this one isn't that one. :)

Sushi, here is the theme you are thinking about. HERE

[Sushi]

WHAT, MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS WRONG ?????????

[ChattyKathy]

SaintGeorge, here is Room222

WHAT, MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS WRONG ?????????

You guys really need to stop doing that.

[ChattyKathy]

While y'all are guessing that last one of mine here's a comic breakI love these!
