It’s great to have our Gong and Can man back!
02-27 18:29
Matt:
Very nice & relaxing, thnx…..Wanted to pop in here the last two weeks, but both were formal evenings/dinners
02-27 18:29
Matt:
Great to be back!
02-27 18:29
Rush:
A ‘gimme” choice there!
Yes! It is always good to be back home, isn’t it?
02-27 18:30
Matt:
Yes….now I have to lose 10 pounds, lol
02-27 18:30
Rush:
Familiar surroundings.
Yes! A normal situation!
02-27 18:31
Matt:
Everything go well the last two weeks?
02-27 18:31
Rush:
With the way you are so active, it won’t take long!
02-27 18:31
Matt:
One day at a time, but getting harder and harder as we get older
02-27 18:31
Rush:
Yes, thank you! And we made some improvements with the “Comics” page.
Louise added readable Charlie Chan comic books.
02-27 18:32
Matt:
Outstanding, I’ll take a peak tomorrow
02-27 18:32
Matt:
How about the two Chan movies that were offered on my stateroom TV? I was SO shocked
02-27 18:33
Rush:
They are pretty good stories…pre-comics code, so the implications are a bit graphic at times!
YES! Great about the movies!
02-27 18:33
Rush:
Maybe we can thank them for including those!
02-27 18:33
Matt:
It was like finding a “lost” Chan
Good point!
02-27 18:34
Rush:
Was one of them “Charlie Chan’s Murder Cruise”?
02-27 18:34
Matt:
lol, NO!
02-27 18:34
Rush:
02-27 18:34
Matt:
Opera & Museum
02-27 18:34
Rush:
Two good ones!
maybe a suggestion for “Charlie Chan at Treasure Island”!
02-27 18:35
Matt:
That would be a good one, especially since they have a port in San Fran
02-27 18:36
Rush:
Ah! Perfect!
02-27 18:37
Matt:
Have you been able to achieve the chats easily now?
Moreso than the last chatroom?
02-27 18:37
Rush:
Yes! I am able to copy everything, including any graphics!

Matt:
wb, Rachel!
02-27 18:39

We only have one extra tonight, which runs about ten minutes.
02-27 18:39
Duane:
Welcome home Rachel
02-27 18:40
Rush:
So, we can wait a little before we share it.
02-27 18:41
Mike n Rachel in DC:
The Winchester Mystery House…can’t wait to see the lowdown
02-27 18:41
Matt:
Sounds interesting
02-27 18:41
Rush:
It is about the Winchester House in San Jose, near to San Francisco. A mysterious house.
02-27 18:42
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Is that the inspiration for the Lowell house?
02-27 18:42
Rush:
Maybe vaguely.
Secret passages, etc.
02-27 18:42
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Aha
02-27 18:43
Matt:
Baxter?
02-27 18:43
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Tonight’s film is a pretty prosaic story…but it’s one of the very best supporting casts, I think
02-27 18:43
Rush:
Agreed, Mike.
02-27 18:43
Mike n Rachel in DC:
This one and Treasure Island…
02-27 18:44
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Rush, do you know why #1 son fades in and out of these earlier films?
02-27 18:44
Rush:
And, we see that Baxter is very much like Birmingham in mannerisms, etc.!
02-27 18:44
Duane:
Rush which one is are extra.there are many on YouTube
02-27 18:44
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Was it a studio/contract thing
02-27 18:44
Rush:
Mike, It has to have been due to Keye Luke having other picture commitments.
02-27 18:45
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Oh. It doesn’t seem to be plot driven necessarily
02-27 18:45
Rush:
Duane: “Labyrinth of Lies: The Truth Behind the Winchester Mystery House”
We can run it in 5 minutes?
02-27 18:46
Rush:

The mysterious Winchester House.
02-27 19:00
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Some similarities to the Lowell estate
02-27 19:00
Rush:
Possibly an influence on the mysterious residence of tonight!
yes, mike.
02-27 19:00
mda19083:
did she have a creepy caretaker?
02-27 19:01
Mike n Rachel in DC:
And a clock that told the wrong time?
02-27 19:01
Rush:
And, as Mrs. Winchester died in 1922, there was more than a decade for tales and rumors to grow, and then possibly influence the writers of tonight’s movie!

Yes, Mike!
02-27 19:26
Rush:
Better a blowgun dart or silenced pistol.
02-27 19:26
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
Mother is a passive-aggressive manipulating so & so.
02-27 19:26
Rich Maine:
Lucifer appears
02-27 19:26
Rush:
Yes!
02-27 19:26
Rich Maine:

02-27 19:27
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Baxter is an early version of Birmingham Brown
02-27 19:27
Rush:

02-27 19:27
Rich Maine:
yes Mike, a precursor of BB
02-27 19:28
Dona:
I like him
02-27 19:28
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
Mother’s salvation at the picture’s end is remarkably measured.
02-27 19:28
Dona:
makes me laugh
02-27 19:28
Rush:
As do I, Dona!
yes.
02-27 19:29
Rich Maine:
she impersonates Margaret Dumont
02-27 19:29
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Was that Lucifer the Cat?
02-27 19:29
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
Mr.Bean!
02-27 19:29
Rush:
02-27 19:29
mda19083:
love the bean!
02-27 19:30
Rush:
Lucifer was possibly played by Puzzums the cat.
02-27 19:30
Mike n Rachel in DC:
He’s a dirty old man, staring at the daughter like that…
02-27 19:31
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
Grumpgrumpgrump
02-27 19:31
Rush:
02-27 19:31
Rich Maine:

02-27 19:31
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Lucifer, admirably portrayed by Beezlebub
02-27 19:31
Rush:
Chan winces at the hearty handshake!
02-27 19:32
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
CC would rather be on an isthmus, getting a panama canal.
What a fop.
02-27 19:32
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Makes one wonder where “Professor” Bowen got his title
02-27 19:32
Phil:
You’d think a wealthy family would have matching chairs.
02-27 19:32
Rich Maine:
medium rare Carlotta
02-27 19:32
Rush:
Coming up at some point, Angel!
02-27 19:32
mda19083:
no ghost in the closet tonight – only Allen Colby
02-27 19:32
Mike n Rachel in DC:
namaste
02-27 19:33
Phil:
Rush you have your eyes open
02-27 19:33
Rush:
A Medium is just right, between a Small and a Large…
02-27 19:33
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
Phil, you are QUITE right. Probably they went to IKEA.
02-27 19:33
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Hey! Who’s grabbing my…
02-27 19:33
Rush:
Spirit music….
02-27 19:33
Rich Maine:
no touching legs
02-27 19:33
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Eve Cairo > Carlotta
02-27 19:33
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
Meditatemeditatemeditate
02-27 19:34
Phil:
Cue the can
02-27 19:34
Rush:
Question: WHO held and dropped Colby’s body?
02-27 19:34
Matt:
Alan has seen some better days
02-27 19:34
Rush:
TYSM, Matt…
02-27 19:34
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
Matt: 
02-27 19:34
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Bat Matt?
02-27 19:34
Rich Maine:
Murdered ! Touch NOTHING
02-27 19:34
Matt:
Shhhhh
02-27 19:34
Phil:
Hi Matt, didn’t see you on the list.
02-27 19:35
Rush:
The knife was left in his back!
02-27 19:35
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Amazingly bloodless for a knife in the heart
02-27 19:35
Rush:
It passed through the ribs hitting the heart.
02-27 19:35
Rich Maine:
yes no blood at all
02-27 19:36
mda19083:
$$$$$$$$ talks

Phil:
Could be covid
02-27 19:37
mda19083:
try some quinine
02-27 19:37
Rush:
Wasn’t invented yet!
02-27 19:37
hounder:
…
02-27 19:38
Rush:
Quinine was, though.
02-27 19:38
Rich Maine:
or drink coca cola and get buzzed
02-27 19:38
Rush:
“No…you are STANDING…”
02-27 19:38
Phil:
gin & tonics had something to do with quinine
02-27 19:38
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Quinine…or cocaine…both medicines of the day.
02-27 19:38
Rich Maine:
02-27 19:39
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Attempted malaria prevention, Phil
02-27 19:39
Rush:
Note the ctak decoration above the door.
02-27 19:39
Phil:
No one expects the Spanish Inquisition
02-27 19:39
Rush:

Phil:
Yes M&R
02-27 19:39
mda19083:
a round of G & T’s for everyone
02-27 19:39
Mike n Rachel in DC:
I’ll drink to that, MDA
02-27 19:39
Rush:
“Signatures”
02-27 19:40
mda19083:
off to the beverage cart
02-27 19:40
Mike n Rachel in DC:
A son reference by Charlie…
02-27 19:40
Rush:
Yes, MDA.
02-27 19:40
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
RATulations, you mean!
02-27 19:40
Rush:
And, yes, Mike.
02-27 19:41
Rush:
Yes, Angel.
02-27 19:41
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
I don’t even own my own fingerprints.
02-27 19:41
Rich Maine:
I KNOW how I like my toast
02-27 19:41
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
TYSM
02-27 19:41
hounder:
baxter looks less than enthusiastic about spending the night.
02-27 19:41
Rush:
Poor Baxter…
02-27 19:41
Phil:
You think you think. I think.
02-27 19:41
Mike n Rachel in DC:
LOVE that line, Rich
02-27 19:42
Rich Maine:
yup mike
02-27 19:42
Rush:
Yes, Phil! Great line!
02-27 19:42
mda19083:
one of the best
02-27 19:42
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
TOAST? Ain’t you gettin’ a little personal, lady?
02-27 19:44
Mike n Rachel in DC:
A toast! — we should do a Chan like a Rocky Horror Picture Show cult showing
02-27 19:44
mda19083:
she’s back
02-27 19:44
Rich Maine:
no furs tonite
02-27 19:44
mda19083:
yes Mike!
02-27 19:44
Phil:
Well…she told him.
02-27 19:44
Rush:
The “line”!
02-27 19:44
Rich Maine:
throwing burnt toast at my screen
You THINK you think…I THINK
02-27 19:46
Matt:
Trickery
02-27 19:47
Rush:
YES!
02-27 19:48
Rush:
“Role of dead man require very little acting.”
02-27 19:48
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Charlie uses that line with #2 son later
02-27 19:48
mda19083:
out damn spot
02-27 19:50
mda19083:
more trickery
02-27 19:50
Phil:
How in the WORLD did the charlatan clairvoyants have time to install all this stuff?
02-27 19:50
Rich Maine:
yes phil pretty fancy stuff
02-27 19:51
Rush:
Nice tackle!
02-27 19:51
Phil:
Charlie’s carrying a revolver tonight. Usually, it’s a semi-auto
02-27 19:51
Rich Maine:
whenever a new will is mentioned, murder appears
02-27 19:51
mda19083:
new will is bad idea in a Chan flick
02-27 19:51
Mike n Rachel in DC:
He had a .45 in Shanghai
02-27 19:51
Rush:
Phil…great question! it seems that they were not working alone.
02-27 19:51
Mike n Rachel in DC:
This is true, MDA
02-27 19:52
Rush:
Again…someone had to hold up Colby’s body at that seance.
02-27 19:52
Phil:
It could have been inflated with helium and just floated there.
02-27 19:52
Rich Maine:
yes rush, never really explained
02-27 19:52
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Must have been Ullrich. Or someone not mentioned in the credits.
02-27 19:53
Rush:
I believe Ulrich would be the prime “suspect” in that regard!
02-27 19:53
mda19083:
maybe it was Rigger Mortise
02-27 19:55
Rich Maine:
a queer old bird ….
02-27 19:55
Rush:
Very.
02-27 19:55
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Just making sure that EVERYONE in the cast is a prime suspect
02-27 19:55
Phil:
I’ll bet he smells bad.
02-27 19:56
mda19083:
the eighth drawf – GRUMPY
02-27 19:57
Phil:
A waterproof flashlight
02-27 19:57
Rich Maine:
CC is always prepared
02-27 19:57
Mike n Rachel in DC:
“Insignificant offspring of searchlight”
02-27 19:57
mda19083:
you go first Charlie
02-27 19:58
Rush:
02-27 19:58
hounder:
love that line m n r
02-27 19:58
Mike n Rachel in DC:
That’s another of our favs, hounder
02-27 19:58
Phil:
Kind of like a hobbit house
02-27 19:59
Rich Maine:
or hansel and gretal cottage
02-27 19:59
Dona:
yes
02-27 19:59
Mike n Rachel in DC:
I’m thinking of the hermit cottage in Bride of Frankenstein
02-27 19:59
Dona:
lol
02-27 19:59
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Friend? Friend?
02-27 20:00
Phil:
I often find myself not knowing what I’m doing.
02-27 20:00
mda19083:
hard to believe Phil
02-27 20:01
Rush:
Mike: yes!
02-27 20:01
Dona:
He is not friendly
02-27 20:01
Rush:
Not even the slightest!
02-27 20:01
Dona:
I don’t like this part
02-27 20:01
Phil:
And he smells bad.
02-27 20:01
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Friend: good. Fire: no good
02-27 20:01
mda19083:
good shot Ulrich
02-27 20:01
Rush:
Mike:
02-27 20:02
mda19083:
the Professor is a bad apple
don’t touch that dial
02-27 20:02
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Professors are always psycho bad guys in films…. 
02-27 20:02
Rush:
Zap!!!
02-27 20:02
mda19083:
Professor Moriarty
02-27 20:02
Mike n Rachel in DC:
don’t touch …
02-27 20:02
Matt:
02-27 20:02
Mike n Rachel in DC:
too late
02-27 20:03
hounder:
sorry. mom is calling tonight so i’m in and out.
02-27 20:03
Rich Maine:
Shocking!
02-27 20:03
Rush:
That was some jolt!
02-27 20:03
Dona:
It’s good to have you here Hounder.
02-27 20:03
mda19083:
get some brandy
02-27 20:03
Mike n Rachel in DC:
wb hounder
02-27 20:04
Rush:
“Live and learn…”
I have done plenty of that!
02-27 20:04
Mike n Rachel in DC:
blow-off…old slang, yes?
02-27 20:05
Rush:
Yes.
02-27 20:05
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Live and learn: both good things to do, Rush.
02-27 20:06
Rush:
We see how Ulrich felt about the whole family, including Allan.
02-27 20:07
Rush:
Pre-dinner Ouija session…
02-27 20:07
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Y.O.U. B.E.T.T.E.R. D.U.C.K.
02-27 20:07
Rich Maine:
a whole hour at the board!
02-27 20:07
Rush:
YES!
02-27 20:08
Phil:
How did she not get hit?
02-27 20:08
mda19083:
there she goes
02-27 20:08
Rich Maine:
and she’s down !
02-27 20:08
Rush:
What was the Ouija pointing to before the shot?
02-27 20:09
mda19083:
Dick!
02-27 20:10
Mike n Rachel in DC:
This actor seems familiar
02-27 20:10
Rush:
Chan has one ot those moments of looking bad…
Chan gives her a hint, here…
02-27 20:11
hounder:
Charlie doesn’t mind taking the emotional hit for the betterment of the woman in the case.
He did it in egypt as well.
02-27 20:11
mda19083:
well said Hounder
02-27 20:11
Dona:
Yes!
02-27 20:11
Rich Maine:
Baxter in the tree
02-27 20:11
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Charlie is an “eyes on the prize” sort of guy. Stays focused on getting the bad guy
02-27 20:12
Rush:
For those who have been to San Francisco, you may feel that the “atmosphere” has been captured in this film.
02-27 20:12
mda19083:
the smoking gun
02-27 20:13
Mike n Rachel in DC:
again, no blood
02-27 20:13
Dona:
I agree Rush
02-27 20:13
Rich Maine:
CC has another tool
02-27 20:13
Rush:
Yes.
02-27 20:14
mda19083:
to the tower!
02-27 20:14
Rush:
Baxter is down.
02-27 20:14
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Find the hunchback!
02-27 20:14
Rush:
02-27 20:14
mda19083:
maybe just a hunch
02-27 20:14
Dona:
talking about his his son’s again
02-27 20:15
Rush:
Yes, Dona!
They are kept “in the picture.”
02-27 20:16
Rush:
I always note that there was an “expert marksman” used in the making of this picture!
02-27 20:16
Mike n Rachel in DC:
This is, in fact, very dangerous Charlie
02-27 20:16
Phil:
Whatever fingerprints were on that case are gone now.
02-27 20:16
Rich Maine:
when the clock strikes ten……
02-27 20:16
Rush:
The following is a REAL rifle shot!
02-27 20:16
Dona:
lol
02-27 20:17
Rush:
If you freeze the frames, you will see how very real that shot was!
02-27 20:17
mda19083:
baxter deserves combat pay
02-27 20:17
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Hope Baxter was paid extra for that stunt
02-27 20:17
Rush:
YES!
02-27 20:18
Rush:
Bowen is at least an accessory to this murder!
02-27 20:19
Rush:
This is a part of “Charlie Chan’s SECRET”
02-27 20:19
Rich Maine:
gangs all here
02-27 20:20
Rush:
Yep.
02-27 20:20
Mike n Rachel in DC:
This worked in Black Camel…
02-27 20:20
mda19083:
hail hail
02-27 20:20
Rush:
Yes it did!
02-27 20:20
mda19083:
no broken brooch tonight
02-27 20:21
Rush:
02-27 20:21
mda19083:
the tangled skein
02-27 20:21
Rush:
Turn DOWN the lights…not OFF!
02-27 20:22
mda19083:
quinine anyone?
02-27 20:22
Rush:
Later, please!
02-27 20:22
Mike n Rachel in DC:
some joker should put some Dixieland jazz on their transmitting radio…liven up the seances
02-27 20:22
Rush:
Seance in progress….
yes, Mike!
02-27 20:22
mda19083:
she’s back!
02-27 20:23
Rush:
Seven years bad luck on top of a murder rap!
02-27 20:23
mda19083:
the mirror craccked
cracked
02-27 20:23
Rush:
Indeed!
02-27 20:23
Rich Maine:

Rush:

02-27 20:24
Rich Maine:
but nobody missed you
02-27 20:25
Rush:
“The ring” is on Chan’s finger.
Baxter helps ala BB!
02-27 20:25
Dona:
I told you he makes me laugh
02-27 20:25
Rush:
