Matt1: Sadly
Rush: Yes…
Rush: But…there will be IOWA in our future.
Matt1: Soon!
Rush: Just don’t let outsiders moving in change your state!
Matt1: Are you ready for the colder weather there?
Rush: I remember the 2018 elections seeing a truck dropping off boxes of ballots at the corrupt pricinct in FL!
Rush: We will survive!
Rush: Rachel and I will be driving out at Christmas time.
Rush: (Second daughter)

Matt1: I think PA is the State to watch
Rush: Yes, December, but not moving in then.
Matt1: Before the holiday?
Rush: Just taking the first load of things and then doing a week of interior painting.
Rush: Leaving Dec. 20.

Godwinshelley2: Teamed with Mantan Moreland in a series of films
Rush: Yes, Len?
Rush: Yes, GS!
PaulM: that coin looks like a Walking Liberty half dollar
Rush: Yes, it is.
Len Freeman: He and Junior Coughlin, the other main jockey in this, ,were both regulars in the serials.
HonoluLou: GS, I like to get a 1st draft to Mr. Glick by 15 December. Rush approves the input, articles and final product as our fearless leader.
Louise: My copy of this film is beautiful: very sharp.
Rush: (blushes…)
Godwinshelley2: Will think about it, Lou
Rush: Think…then do, please!
Rush: 🙂
HonoluLou: GS, T.Y.S.M.
Godwinshelley2: So you need it before Dec 15 since you have to organize it, edit it, and proof it
Rush: A fatal voyage…
Matt1: <tin can>
HonoluLou: They shoot horses don’t they?
Rush: They used to.
Phil & Mrs Phil: Right on it Matt.
Rush: They used to trip them, too….
Rush: That’s where I look away.
HonoluLou: and send them to the glue factory, I believe!
Godwinshelley2: Was that actor in CC in London?
Rush: Nice mirror use in this shot.
Rush: Yes!
Rush: He played “Lake.”
Phil & Mrs Phil: Yes GS. As the head stud groom
Rush: The horse groom.
Len Freeman: The actor also plays the pursur in the first Mr. Moto film
Rush: He is also in “Behind That Curtain>’
Rush: I have a similar lamp on my desk.
Rush: Lollipop.
HonoluLou: Ah, didn’t Lollypop place in one of your polls?
Rush: In reality, horses can and do have “companion animals.”
Rush: Lou, you have become the resident expert in our Polls!
Rush: Yes.
Rush: By my count, we have had about 200 polls since 2003.
HonoluLou: I read that somewhere, Rush 🙂
Rush: Lou authored the present poll question! Please make your choice!
Hounder: Did I miss anything? Mom thought her bedroom was taking on water.
Len Freeman: ?!
Godwinshelley2: Flooding?
Rush: Nice tie-in with the splatter sequence earlier.
HonoluLou: SEPTEMBER 2003:
Which Charlie Chan movie animal is your favorite? Winner: Oscar, the lion (Charlie Chan in Honolulu) 38%
Dona: Yes Rush
Louise: Yes another chance for suit splatter
Rush: No, Hounder, no water effects that I can note!
Rush: Yes, Louise!
Hounder: She thought so but there’s no rce and it’
Rush: Lollipop!!!
Louise: Lollipop and Avalanche: not great names for animals!
Hounder: Water source and it isn’t raining
Hounder: She was asleeep
Rush: A dream?
Rush: Winch shoe.
Godwinshelley2: There was a washer flooding event in the back (my) bedroom at my parents home this summer. Actually it was like the plagues of Egypt back there for awhile – water, insects. I was worried that I was the first born.
Rush: 🙂
Dona: lol GS
Louise: GS!!!
HonoluLou: HaHa.
Rush: A domestic disater, GS!
Hounder: I think so. Lol@gs
Rush: “All forgotten, like last year’s bird’s nest.”
Louise: Hah! I just found a bird’s nest in one of my bushes!
Rush: If Mike were here, I could ask him what the music was that we just heard.
Rush: It will soon be forgotten, Louise!
HonoluLou: Rush 🙂
HonoluLou: Yeah, like last years bird nest 🙂
Louise: Cabin boy outfit
Rush: The SLAP!
Rush: Yes.
Godwinshelley2: Wasn’t that “For it was Mary, Mary, plain as any name could be”
HonoluLou: A Happy Coat, I have one!
Rush: Unless one’s name IS Mary!
Godwinshelley2: Wasn’t that the song?
Godwinshelley2: But played slower
Rush: And help, Lee DOES!
Rush: Yes, GS?
Rush: AH! TYSM, then!
Godwinshelley2: Didn’t someone say they wanted to know what music that was they were playing

Rush: I’ll wait until 15 before the hour to make the first drawing of the horses.
johnr: johnr
Rush: LOU: 🙂
johnr: Good to be here once again
Rush: I am reading “The Chinese Parrot,” and Charlie Chan in the guise of a Chinese servant, requiring the exaggerated Chinese accent Lee just showed us, bemoans his necessity to do so.
Rush: I am always a sucker for these moonlit ocean scenes!
HonoluLou: That is a great read Rush.
Rush: Yes.
Louise: I like when Lee does these goofy disguises
Rush: I have time to read at times during my Visiting Angels job.
HonoluLou: “If you’ve ever read a mystery story you know that a detective never works so hard as when he’s on vacation. He’s like the postman who goes for a long walk on his day off.”
HonoluLou: The Chinese Parrot
Rush: I actually just read that line in the same story, Lou!
Louise: I have some sarsaparilla tea!
Hounder: Lol@lou
HonoluLou: Italians are psychic…or is that Chinese 🙂
Rush: “Sarsapirilla.”
Rush: BOTH!
Rush: And, a wife of ANY ethnicity!
HonoluLou: Rush, before I forget do you have the name of the student who read with Mr. Hong and I for Earl’s 126th? If so send it to me. T.Y.S.M.
Rush: Was he known to Steve, perhaps?
HonoluLou: Ah, OK.
Rush: Okay…time for the first round of picks!
Louise: ready!
Godwinshelley2: Yahoo
Matt1: Ready!
Rush: Phil and Mrs. Phil will count as one family?
HonoluLou: Where are the names?

Rush: That way, we have the perfect number for 24 horses. If there is a late arrival, they get MY hores.
Rush: I have them in a felt Chan hat!
Louise: FIRE!
Len Freeman: OK
HonoluLou: Oh, OK.
Rush: I will go by the way our names are listed…

Dona: I see no reason to Rush
HonoluLou: Hmmm!
Len Freeman: Luck of the draw (Fix! Fix!)
Rush: Here is one of those displays of technology.
Cdirus: In the Kentucky Derby you never bet on the favorite
Cdirus: They usually don’t do too well

Matt1: Wahoo!
Rush: I will begin at the bottom of our list this time…
Louise: ready, again…
Rush: Len gets: Warning
Godwinshelley2: Lou – is this article written for folks who already know Chan, or for folks new to Chan – to help me understand how much explanation is needed.
HonoluLou: Wow, quick thinking Charlie!
Rush: YES!
Rush: john gets: Stratum Albion
Hounder: BRB dog walk
Godwinshelley2: That looks like a jumble word
Rush: Paul gets: Finche
HonoluLou: GS, mostly though for persons familiar (or wanting to be) with our detective.

Cdirus: No Vow and Declare
Dona: Me either
Rush: I think I won once a LONG time ago!
Rush: Fireworks!
Hounder: Those horses are amazingly calm with all the kerfuffle going on around then
Rush: That would probably cause havoc with the horses!
Godwinshelley2: Wow – Chan hits a fellow security guy
Cdirus: Nowadays the whole place would be locked down
Dona: I think this is the only movie I remember Charlie socking someone
Rush: Bye-bye laundry truck!
Rush: Dona, I think you are correct.
HonoluLou: Yeah, and he hit a good guy!
Rush: Yes!
Godwinshelley2: For all the right reasons
Godwinshelley2: Of course Chan shoots a bad guy in Behind that Curtain
HonoluLou: True, True, GS!
Rush: “Blackton” guard.
Rush: Play on “Pinkerton”
Rush: Gang is BUSTED.
HonoluLou: Look at all those people! Ah, Helloooo…COVID ya know!
Rush: These scenes shot at Santa Anita race track in Glendale, CA.
Louise: Those were the days…crowds close together
Rush: Sigh….
Rush: They are OFF!
Godwinshelley2: Of course, there were things like “Test your Lung Power” machines in sideshows where folks would blow in them – with no cleaning between
HonoluLou: GS 🙂
Dona: ugh
Godwinshelley2: Hello TB
Rush: Warning: trip line at the finish….
Rush: Last time I looked was more than ten years ago!

Godwinshelley2: Looks like KL came up lame after vet checked him out
Cdirus: According to the link I posted
Rush: We accept it as fact, then.
HonoluLou: I don’t like his attitude!
Rush: He doth over-protest.
Louise: I’m lost and confused…by the movie and the conversation here!
Godwinshelley2: This is a pocket film – isn’t that the second time something was slipped into a pocket
Dona: I’m confussed.
Rush: Suspects are gathered.
Louise: Me too, Dona
Rush: The hammer drops!
Len Freeman: lots of pocket stuffing
