John, I know we did this many years ago and it went over well, especially when we had conversations about movies, tv shows, and old time bowlers.
Any current reviews?
-
How about Barbie?????
-
Those were the day's. Could talk sports and such with real contributors.
Had some nice posts with ICEMAN about old boxers. Of course he got chased of eventually by LUKEPUKE and friends. He was a great contributor. Always fightin back until he finnaly gave up.
And we had some great conversations about BOWLING. Posters today were not here back then and if they were would wreck anything that was said back then; I think SUPERFECTA was one who always contributed nicely.
SO for those newbee's JOHN FRANK will relate his experiance with BOWLING.
IT 1963 and JOHN FRANK be a BOWLER. He started when he about 9. He be GREAT. Is there anythin he can't do. So it a STATE bowlin tourny. Everyone starts at their local house. You win that and you move on. DISTRICT, REGIONAL, SECTIONAL,and finnaly STATE FINALS. JOHN FRANK won them all. At start there where 7200 entrants. JOHN FRANK reigned #1. Here's the thin at STATE finals. Me DAD passed when me 11. He was quite the bowler himself. So at the finals the last 3 games are pitted against the top 6 on same pair of lanes. It down to just 2 goin into last frame. He rolled 9th and 10th and he had me. It me turn to just roll the 10th. I needed 2 strikes and 8 to beat him. The whole house is now behind us watchin and the place was packed. This kid's father was sittin directly behind me. He yellin at me. YOU can't beat my son. You need 2 strikes. I walks up to lane and dries me fingers. I steps back off lane and looks at him. He still yellin. I thinks of me DAD. Would he be doin this SHIT. I'm determined now. The crowd is silent. I drills the first strike. The crowd is goin nuts cheerin. The fuc DAD is really layin in now. He screamin you can't do that again. I drills the second. Then I turns and say's to him: WATCH this. I drills the 3rd. The crowd went NUTS. I walks up to him and say's: I feel sorry for your son. He could have won, but you made me determined I'AIN'T gonna LOSE. And it was BEAUTIFUL. JOHN FRANK crowned ILLINOIS STATE CHAMPION after winnin 5 tourneys in a row.
So's onto WASHINGTON DC were the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP be held at. There be 54 from STATES and PROBERTY'S. I ain't sure in 1963 that ALASKA and HAWAII were states at time but they represented along with PORTO RICO, GUAM, VIRGIN ISLANDS,and maybe SOMOA.
So the first night is a celebrity matched with a youth bowler. Just a fun thin. Now everyone is sent a bowlin uniform weeks before NATIONALS. It like the baggy crap that 50's bowlin professionals always wear. So they have a parade of everyone walkin at top of lanes prior to PRO-AM announcin each representative. Everyone wearin appropriate attire but me. I got LEVY bluejeans and me professional shirt hangin out past me knees. When it over they announce will the REP from ILLINOIS please put on proper attire. Me mom was there and holdin me pants. Had to go to restroom and dress as a CLOWN. Kinda held up proceedins for about 10 minutes. My guy I'm bowlin against is DICK WEBER. He goes: why the protest. I tells him I feels more comfortable in my previous attire. Anyhow I beats him 206-201,but I guarrentee he laid down last frame to let me beat him.
So on to the tourny itself. You bowl 6 games on a THURSDAY,FRIDAY and SATURDAY, Mornin and afternoon sesions. Top 6 advance to a stepladder final on SUNDAY. So after the first 2 days JOHN FRANK 3rd. Got to know some bowlers from different states. There's 5 of us and the guy from NEW YORK has a car. We all decide: LET'S go out POT BOWLING. We went to regular lanes and shot maybe 5 games. Then one of us comes up with a brillant idea. Lets go to a DUCK PIN house and continue. None of us had ever rolled DUCK PIN but it sounded good at time. I mean this the TOURNY we playin in and DUCKS can alter one's game. We get back in about 5:30 am. The first session that day is 9AM. Youuuse young you can handle no sleep.
So here the clincher on day 3. It a big house and me and 5 others are drawin the last lanes in establishment. I'M rollin. Starts with 3 strikes. I'm on the last lane now roolin frame 4. There a walkway there where employee's go to run down to fix a lane malfuntion. A third of way down is some photographer shootin pictures of tourny. He got the old time flashbulb apparatus. I'm up and approchin lane with me delivery and he shoots picture blindin me. I GUTTER. I goes: I want a re-throw. I'M yellin now. I'M incensed. I protest. The tourny is held up for 20 minute as I explain me case. Everyone goin in TOURNEY,not ILLINOIS again. Officials decided nope and I told them to go FUC themsels. I could not bowl after that'I was so agitated. Had the worst 6 game session and ended 13th. FATBOY loved that. Not that I lost but the PHOTO GUY.

I think back then we all agreed Earl Anthony was the best of all time.
-
Hey JF, have you ever seen the movie Kingpin?
-
I can't see.
EARL was GREAT. Afrikin machine. God what a smooth delivery and the same precision motion every time. And a lefty to boot. Ya know back then they said lefty's had a advantage on lanes. Few bowlin on that side and one could develop their lane with consistency. Righties because so many would wear down oil on their side and had to adjust to dryin out conditions. Me bein lefty I found that different. I prfered drier lanes vrs oily. I mean I could adjust as I could throw a hook or curve dependin where I positioned myself on lane. As years went on,I hated synthetic lanes. Back then guys came to house with one bowli ball. A couple brought 2. Nowadays,professionals and your average house bowler drage 18 with them. Man if you can't adjust with one 18 ain't gonna help.
TRUST me,this eventually leadin up to somethin.
So in me late teens,I use to do alot of POT BOWLIN. Always against older. Used to travel into CHICAGO and roll against from anywhere 20 or 30 others. Did it on TUESDAY's WEDNESDAY'S and THURSDAY nights at 3 different houses. Management knew we was comin. We start at 12 midnight and shoot upwards of 3 hours. No one had a real advantage that way bein a house bowler and knowin the lanes. I'm a young kid and did have a advantage. They had leaques from 7-10. The lanes had dried out. My type. Won me some moola. You start off with 6 on a pair of lanes At beginnin each person throws in $10.00,high game collects. Lowest game guy has to pay for everyone shootin that game. People drop out and others on other lanes move togeather. Games know go to $20.00. Same thin happens again and there maybe 5 left. Games are $50.00. And that's money back then for anyone,especially when you in your teens. So,1 night I bring a young lady who bowls. I knew her dad. ART KOCH be his name. She LORRIE KOCH. Her dad was a 200 plus scratch bowler and taught her how to bowl. HER dad was BRUTAL yellin at her when she made a mistake on lanes. At our local house she was beatin up on males in POT. So's I drag her one night to CHICAGO to face some big boy's. When weeeese arive everyone goin"WEEESE NO ALLOW FEMALES IN OUR POT". I say's she very good and I'M backin her. She cleaned up. I did not bowl,I just coached. She married and became LORRIE NICHOLS. She WON 18 titles on the WOMEN'S professioal TOUR and all MAJORS. I went to 2 majors she won,cheerin her on. Made her DAD,ART very proud after all those years instrutin yellin at her. Obviously,LORRIE in HALL OF FAME.
So about 3 years,I stop in at the local bowlin establishment where it all originnally happened. It only a quarter mile away from where I live. Place use to ROCK,but I had not been in for 40 years. I'm sittin at bar and also the only one in there. Leaques are bowlin and you can sit and watch. I'm lookin at the back wall above the end of lanes. I say's to the lady bartender,who owns this place now. I'd lke to spesk with him. She goes gets him. He comes up and I explain. I introduce myself me name be JOHN FRANK. He goes SO. I say's I'm lookin at your back wall above the lanes. I say's myself and LORRIE NICHOLS made this joint years ago as BOWLERS. You should put somethin up there regogzing that fac. He GOES: Never heard of either one of you. GET LOST. WOW! Fame is fleetin.
OK,so here goes. So,ANDREA a comedy fan. I'ss SCI-FY. So ANDREA bought KINGPIN back in day. Not on a CD but some box thin. She goes } YOU GOTTA watch this,THIS IS YOU. So she throws it in. MY GOD. It be me. Did not lose a hand,but all the circumstances sue fit. Great movie and havin the original is much better. No edits gut ot of it. Same as"LET IT RIDE". You need original which I have.
-
By the qay GLEN: unless tou have a young grand-daughter and takin her to see that MOVIE, only a male fag would go to see that. Maybe,you can gice a EBERT review.
-
I'm just joking, I would rather watch paint dry than a Barbie movie.

I can't see.

I agree about Kingpin, great movie, I bought the DVD years ago. I also liked Let It Ride, I saw it a few times on cable. I thought dryfus's character was kind of goofy and in my opinion he over acted the part but it was a fun movie to watch.
As far as that lady bowlers father yelling at her it brings back memories about 30 years ago when my sister coached a little league team 8 - 10 year olds. when i was younger i did some pitching so she asked me to come out and help the kids. I taught them different grips like the 2 and 4 seam which have some natural movement. I told the kids not to try and throw too hard because they were young and could hurt themselves. This one kid came with his father and the father was yelling at him to throw fastballs, everytime he threw a pitch he shook his arm, he was hurting himself and his dad was an idiot.

I like the Motor Trend channel; they have many interesting car rehab shows and the Mecum auto auctions with those beautiful vintage cars. I was also watching my 600 lb life for a while but now its rarely on.
Buzzer is a good channel for 70's and 80's game show reruns, my favorite is concentration with Alex Trabek.
-
Mountain men is pretty good.
-
I like LIPSTICK LAWYER, cutting edge cinematography.

I'M goin blind.
(1} NEver have watched the hippo shows. Not mockin them as they surely have some serious weight issues. But that can all be washed away with any cash they makin for stayin way overweight and combattin their issues if they really are. I'll try to catch a episode or 2 in future and give a more realistic analysis.
(2) I've watched BLIND FROG a few times. Have no idea what these MORONS are tryin to prove. I knows they got some proberty in UTAH. That about all I know. I'ss knows that UTAH has a lot of old abandoned mines. I went to some desereted ones myself when I was stationed there for almost 6 months. TOO BEE TINUED...
-
And they act like each abandoned mine is a portal or wormhole to other side of universe. GET a GRIP. Then I saw where this old polluted minin pit shithole swamp had a box at the bottom of it. They tryin to raise it from depths which might have been 30 feet. They goin it's loaded with ex-territerial bones. Of course they fail to bring it up and say it immpossible to bring to shore. OF course it is. Just use grabble hooks to bring the FUCKIN TRUNK up. Continuin in a couple minutes....
-
I'ss got really no idea in UTAH where these IDIOTS are located. I think central. But they goin everbody watchin us. They tryin to steal whatever. There a lot of military bases in UTAH. Everytime a helicopter or even a commercial aircraft goes over they claim there bein SPYED on. GOOD GRIEF. No one gives a shit about your conspiricy nonsense. And you got to like their confrontation with actual miners who are on public land adjacent to their proberty. Stupid tough boys goin:GET THE FUC OUT. They should be arrested for harrassin individuals who have a legitimate right to be there. But it scripted I guess to make the IDIOTS appear menacing and they got this big secret they never gonna come up with. And they gots a million theory's. Like caves they explore. MONTOZUMA brought his treasure here to hide. Sure he did. No AZTEC ever ventured that far NORTH. You want to find whats left of AZTEC treasure,check the bottom of ATLANTIC OCEAN. Will continue...
-
I also might add: UTAH much empty spacious and wwhen it comes to abandoned mines and caves one can end up bein surprized.
{1} Great place for RATTLER hangout.
(2) Also although they fewer: A full grown male or female CAT. And if female and she got CUBS,YOU BETTER WATCH OUT,YOU BETTER NOT CRY,because SANTA ain't on his WAY. On to next....

KNOW were talkin. EXPEDITION UNKNOWN.
SHOW is GREAT. I've got to give it to this guy JOSH. I knows he got a degree in ARCHOLOGY,but man if he created this show,HE BE AMAZIN. He cabable of doin SHIT no other HUMAN would attemt. He could have been a NAVY SEAL easily. And he gets to go everywhere,where no other human has gone before. And to top that he has a amazin personality. At least on show,but I bet it is true in his everyday life. He seems like the most likeable guy on planet. I personnaly envy this guy. I could never do what he does,even at a much younger age. His shows are great. Although I missed last week the BONNIE and CLYDE episode,I'll catch it next week prior to his new show. And as big as he is,MAN he co-ordinated. He did say one thin. He turned down one show. And that was to go down to TITANIC. He thought it to risky. And he was RIGHT. YES. JOHN FRANK ARMY loves EXPEDITION UNKNOWN. Greatest show on CABLE.
-
I want to add one more thin,eyes behind .
The worst show these days. OAK ISLAND or whatever they call it these days. How this SHITSHOW has remained on TV is incomprehensible.
I was a faithful ignorant watcher for some years. I barely watch these days. I can't take the smirks on everyone of these SHITS goin forward. Everythin they METAL detectand that their....TRLE CALL,be back soon.....

if those fellas haven't found the hidden treasure by now ... they are unquestionably the worst bootie diggers of all time
-
How can this be. Metal detecting boy and everythin he detects. OH look at this!. This has to be old. Of course it old. The FRENCH and BRITISH been on that fucked up ISLAND since the early 1700 hundreds. But everytime their experts go this could be anywhere fron 1600 hundred to 1800 hundred. They all smile and go it from 1600 hundred. And how many times must one take field trips to FRANCE,ENGLAND,,ITALY, for WHAT. They gonna say next China in 4th century hid their knowledge of explosives there. I mean,for GOD'S SAKE: They have ripped up a ecological 1/4 of the island with their BULLSHIT. Love when they say the water content is LOADED with GOLD. All water is like that. Thats why we have purification plants so we can drink clean. And you gotta love the 2 retarted brothers every time sayin: This the MYSTERY and we determined to find out. Here the MYSTERY. You got 3 young kids in 1798 playin PIRATE. PIRATES were there IDOLS. They HOAX everythin. KIDS will be KIDS. And 13 year olds are like all 13 year olds. For them ADVENTURE. And for years you got grown adults buyin into their FANTASY. Even a PRESIDENT,TEDDY. And for all those years,not ONE FUCKIN THIN has ever been FOUND.

Expedition unknown is a very well-produced show and I like watching it however I wish sometimes Josh would find what hes looking for and not a beer can or coin.
As far as Blind Frog, if I recollect my history correctly Cortez stole all of Montezuma's treasure and shipped it back to Spain. Those idiots find a candy wrapper and get giddy.
The Oak Island guys are a band of idiots, I saw them waste their time digging up a swamp and finding nothing. They find some boards in a vertical mine and think they have struck paydirt, there's boards in every mine on the planet.

I think you hit the nail right on the head!

I believe your recollection of history is on course. Cortez and his complimentary pillager, Pizzaro, were certain conquistador robbers. But, there's more to the story as I think that he sipped the gold statuary, dabloons and bootie back home via UPS and it was their first global transit item. Sadly, they transported on the titanic and the treasure did not make it back to Spain.
Anyway, I think that's the rest of the story.

NO ONE CAN SEE BACK:
So many episodes of EXPEDITION UNKNOWN.
Their was one though were he went with a family and his young kids. They tryin to find somethin hidden by philanthtopist. The guy had buried at 9 different sites thru-out USA somethin. I can't member what. He had a book for different cities with clues. JOSH was on the mission with this young family. I think it was BOSTON, and they found the hidden treasure. You had to redeem it the headquarters . The guy who initiated the hunt had passed ,but his wife and kids were there for redemtion. KNOw I get this ain't BLACKBEARD or JESSE JAMES,but they discovered this. I think the kids got some large gold bar for their efforts. There;s still 6 out there to find. But like you said: He makes his shows interestin,like a modern day WHATEVER that MOVIE ACTOR and those movies about.

whatever happened to The Moonshiners ?
-
Moonshiners is back on again. I never understood this show to begin with.
(1) first they were tryin to hide out in some backwoods area with a spring or some creek and drawin that water for their concotions. Seems to me,anyone that bought that SHIT could come up with alcolohol poisen. And why would not the feds since they on TV have not caught them.
(2) Then they started some show where they brought in 3 contestents and they each had a hour to brew their shit and they be judged on who the best tastin or some crap.
(3) Since I don't drink any of that shit,I really don't care. But the show is back on. New series starts this week.

Agreed the show never made sense. Now a few of them market theyre products in stores. So is the premise of the show that moonshing is still a age old backwoods secret?
Shows almost as stupid as forged in fire, a show about making knives and swords, and who goes to the next level.

Here another show,I not understand. That alligator killin show. I gets it legal and there be a overpopulation of them gators and there be a season legal to do it. But who enjoys watchin a gator shot in head relentlesly. Kinda like slaughterin baby seals in Canada. I told you all in GRAD school me and others put a stop to snowmobelers huntin and chasin down exusted GREY,TIMBER WOLFES in NORTHERN WISCONSIN. They totally depleted the population. It back up these days. But I still can't understand the enjoyment people get from watchin somethin being KILLED. Even TARZAN would object.

Valid points that bring to mind ... are any reality shows, incl. the Granddaddy- Survivor, really real?

CADDY, the reality of of all reality shoes, IS...They are all staged for the camera.

I think they are scripted, all about ratings. Do you ever notice they switch to commercials at strategic points? I would love to see the footage on the cutting room floor.

Anything that increases the ratings won't be edited out.

Frank Zappa made a song about him beating up a trapper who was trying to kill a baby seal, " Yellow snow ".
There's a pretty big difference between a predatory reptile that will kill and eat almost any living thing and a harmless baby seal.

Here a interestin one.
I was watchin a old show called: UNSOLVED and UNEXPLORED. And JOSH be the commentator.
(1) so the one episode these 2 guys trying to find a supposidly lost treasure ship in MEXICO sonora desert. The TEMP is 110. And they walks 2 miles in this heat with a PIC and shovel. That a great way to find a sunkin tresue ship from 400 years ago.
(2) This one is special. These 2 go to NOVA SCOTIA long before OAK ISLAND show. They lookin for TEMPLERS exisentce. They find some old stone foudations and dig with pic and shovel. NO METAL detectors. They unearth OLD NAILS and some metal hoist. They take their findins to a expert to determine age. The gu y goes it dates no later than !800hundred.
On OAK ISLAND they dig up same SHIT and their EXPERTS saythis dates back to 1300 hundred. GET OAK off the AIR. Them 2 brothers are the biggest SCAMMERS on PLANET.
And you got to like FLOODED TUNNEL. The ISLAND and those that buried everythin sure knew how to baffle modern TECH. And the BROTHERS GO: THIS THE MYSTERY. WE will solve it and get to all the treasures in the WORLD.

that's certainty. They resurrected the old game show, Name that tune' a yr ago and have it on now w/ phony celebs .. the producers were slick snagging Jayne Crankowski as host and then sending her out in mini skirts. - 11.hdd . No wonder Mike the Pillow Man was dating this wow-wow

I lost interest in that show long ago. How many times can you watch the same hillbillies build a still and make some high priced rot gut?

Moon shiners sucks, Reality TV is more staged than some regularly produced shows.

the reality winners are the bachelors and now, farmer wants a wife. Gettin' paid to appear on a reality and get to check out the yum-yum as part of the script.
the losers are the ones that let gordon ramsey belittle them - screamin' and actin' wild
-
Lets not forget the Housewives Franchise. Just about everyone ends up facing a legal issue that the new found fame brings to light.

not super familiar w/ the Housewives; but, aren't they in major cities? Could be a whole new spin off to set the steamy sexin and wild misbehavior in a small town
-
Yes multiple cities. except for the NJ franchise apparently they needed the whole State.
-
I have been watching some new episodes of Unknown Expedition. They are much better than the older episodes and Josh is actually finding some interesting and valuable stuff.

I love the Motor Trend channel. Road Kill is my favorite. I also like Road Kill junkyard gold where that guy finds valuable cars in junkyards and gives you the history of the car,
All of the shows on that channel are good.
I also love Roadworthy Rescues where that guy drags wrecks out of woods and gets them back on the road.
