   1. Hey Steve….I am here….but only for a little bit….Katie is getting married tomorrow…..this weekend is jam packed with wedding stuff….today we had a special service at church….after lunch we have to decorate the reception hall….then the rehearsal ….then the rehearsal dinner…..and then tomorrow it gets hectic…lol. I feel like Steve Martin in Father of the Bride….or do I feel like Spencer Tracy in Father of the Bride….crazy crazy days. As for a cameo role….over the last 8 days…I have commented back on 86 comments…..which is by far the most…..and that is with only doing 4 comments in the last 4 days.

      1. Hey Bruce, as long as you don’t feel like Michael Constantine in My Big Fat Greek Wedding, you’ll be okay… Seriously though, stick with Tracy….he always gets first billing 😉
         My congratulations and best wishes to you and the Cogerson family for Katie’s wedding. Don’t worry about answering comments. Enjoy that special day!

         1. Hey PhilHoF17…..I agree I will stick with Tracy……you are right….unless Clark Gable was around Spencer always got top billing. Thanks for the good wishes….they are greatly appreciated.

   It’s getting very confusing to keep track of posts that one has actually sent as I keep copies of mine for a day or two and when they don’t appear flagged up I wonder whether I’ve actually sent them or not. Indeed I think that today I have actually duplicated a post..

      My Part 1 Bogie post has just short into the long grass. I’m beginning to understand how frustrated Tiger Woods felt when the wind took a beautiful shot of his into the rough! If the situation continues for much longer I’m going to get my cousin who lives in the US to “rap the Work Horse’s door and run away” as Groucho expressed it.

      1. It is frustrating Bob. I hope Bruce and WoC find a way to fix this problem. I have two posts missing today and your review has gone AWOL too. Maybe they’re piling up inside the UMR spam folder. 🙂

         You and I are the only one’s affected… hmm maybe Bruce is getting bored of us eh? [cue ominous music] Too much chit chat giving him a headache? [wink]

         1. Since Cogerson’s tech support bill is already outrageous, I am looking at the comment trap that you have both fallen into. The site has been crammed with spam lately, so blocking 500 spam at the cost of blocking a few legit comments seems like an okay deal. I did notice that your short comments are gettng through, but the long comments are not. Maybe break up the longer ones into multiple comments?

            1. The posts are back, thank you WoC! 🙂

               Youtube has a name filter, which is a box where you add all the names of people you trust and their comments are always allowed, links included. Maybe there is a widget that can do a similar job on this site?

               I can’t understand why longer posts are targeted for termination, most of the spam I’ve seen here are only a couple of sentences long and usually gibberish.

4. Hi Bruce, I did comment on your 1931 page but it hasn’t gone thru yet. And earlier I replied to Bob’s Myrna Loy post in the Edward G page and that hasn’t gone thru either.

   Posting is still hit and miss. Some get thru some don’t. My lengthier comments fall into limbo. Maybe I should divide them into parts like Bob does? A paragraph for each post?

5. 1 Susannah had a long and prolific career but I personally think the strongest part of it was in the 1960s at the start of which she appeared in quick succession in 1961’s The Greengage Summer with Kenneth More [aka Loss of Innocence and sadly Ken’s final film as a top Brit box office star], 1962’s Freud with Monty Clift, Tom Jones in 1963 with Albert Finney, 1964’s The 7th Dawn in which she shared equal star billing with the great Golden Holden admittedly past his top star heyday at that point and A Man for All Seasons in 1966 with Paul Scofield and a stellar ensemble cast.

   2 Nearing the close of the 1960s she again caught my attention when she appeared with my Dirk Bogarde in the 1968 Sebastian a film that was panned at the time and even disowned by its star Sir Dirk. However nowadays some film historians claim that it has become a cult film that was underrated in its day. You don’t seem to share that view giving it a so-so 63%.

   3 I lost track of York after that until the 1978 Superman came along and she got to share an iconic scene with your own favourite mumbler. She was Lara Superman’s planetary mother and he was of course the legendary Jor El Superman’s biological father with the apparent wisdom that here on earth perhaps only Joel Hirschhorn could match. [Perhaps we should now nickname the latter Joel El!] A nice touch whether or not intended was having my other idol Charley Bill Stuart play the earthly father Jonathan Kent given that the two “fathers” were Teahouse of August Moon co-stars 22 years earlier.

   4 Susannah and Mr M were last seen in the film clinging to each other as Krypton blew to pieces around them but not before they dispatched their super son to Earth to fight for “truth, justice and the [Work Horse’s] American way of life.” It seems from those last words Supe was indifferent to the Brits way of life despite all of their titles and their Oscar-winning ways though in the 1978 film the Man of Steel’s Kryptonian father spoke with a beautifully clear English accent!

   5 I want to give the pictorials a 2nd viewing so I’ll comment on them later
