In reality, I enjoy sweeping away the cobwebs of consciousness to rediscover the delights of the sixties.. ; the feel of the velvet pants; the smell of snow jasmine joss sticks; the hollowness of 'peace and love ' protestations; the drug-induced reading between the lines of Beatles' songs; the excessive use of 'far out', 'fab' and 'groovy', and the timeless sugariness of Donovan's lovely "Summer day reflection song'....and, of course, fantasies about Diana Rigg. Of course, I'd much rather hear 'far out'
than sentences peppered with "LIKE'. I'd willingly go back in time, or even come back as Marty Feldman, than endure like, a future, like where like people like say like 'And I was like', and they were like'...... Utter torture..like. If I were in Guantanamo I'd confess to anything if i were forced to modern speech patterns of the under 30s. Like. Worse still, is the combination of 'like' with the total mis-and overuse, of 'literally'..delivered with the so-called Australian Upward Inflection; where every statement appears to end in a question.
Small wonder I retreat to the safety of Diana Riggs' buttocks, and McGoohan's 'No 6'. By the way, The Man from Uncle was actually American, but had strong british input in the form of Leo G.Carroll ,and the Ageless scot David McCallum (Damn, but that bastrad still looks great even in his seventies!)
Now where did I leave that Time Machine...

Yes there were two Catwomen in Batman...but Batgirl ...she was just hot!Max-U52 wrote:Alpha, she wasn't in Batman, she was on the IMF. And that's a cool flashback photo.
Burgess Meredith has been a favorite actor of mine for most of my life. From the famous post-apocalypse library to the sci-fi romp in an F-86. Very classy dude.
There were two Catwomen (in the TV series).
