Mike n Rachel in DC: Rush…Happy Holidays. 😉
Rush: TYSM!
Rush: 12 minutes until our first episode…
Mike n Rachel in DC: (has Hanukkah started yet?)
Rush: “The Circle of Fear.”
Nothere: The Circle of life
Rush: Started at sundown last night.
Nothere: Bicycle
Godwinshelley2: Saw the film Aeronauts – very good – though might be a horror film if you are afraid of heights
Mike n Rachel in DC: Aha.
Matt1: Cued to dude w/ hammer?
Rush: I AM affraid of heights, yes!
Rush: I saw the preview, and it looked visually stunning.
Nothere: Nope I’m cued to London.
Godwinshelley2: Well – prepare to clutch the arm of the chair – and it was very good
Godwinshelley2: We liked it
Rush: 9 minutes…
Godwinshelley2: I need to cue up –
Rush: So do i…
Rush: I am using my DVD copy.
angel & fox: Notty, will do. Soon as Hanukah’s over. I don’t want to chat up anybody near an open flame.
Rush: Of course, the links are available above if needed!
Nothere: It’s not cute if your not cued or missing a pool cue.
hounder: hi dc and nt
hounder: ready here
Mike n Rachel in DC: Hey hounder
Nothere: Hey Hound
Mike n Rachel in DC: YouTubed in DC…
Rush: How was the short dog walk, Hounder/
Mike n Rachel in DC: woof
Nothere: How much is that doggie in the chat room? The on with the stubby little tail.
Rush: I am paused at the man with the small hammer.
Godwinshelley2: Thank you for NOT airing the episode where they hurt the dog or the one where they blind the woman – they are good but sad episodes
Mike n Rachel in DC: Dunno…just hope it’s housebroken
Matt1: I’m there too Rush
Godwinshelley2: Rush – the YouTube starts with the title LONDON – the disc skips past that
Nothere: So I need to go past London?
Mike n Rachel in DC: Paused at “LONDON”
Rush: “Circle of Fear.”
Mike n Rachel in DC: Do not pass London. Do not collect $200
Matt1: DVD & YouTube are a bit off in timing
hounder: still raining and my dog doesn’t like to get wet. lol
danventure: Got it. LONDON.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Dude w/hammer is just past LONDON
Rush: Mine starts off with a man about to cut a diamond.
Nothere: Yep Episode 13 circle of fear. I’m at the start , and it says London. No mention of which London.
Godwinshelley2: Yes – the disc starts with they man and the jewelers hammer
Rush: Mine seems to lack “London”.
Nothere: Your dog doesn’t like getting rained on? How odd.
Rush: 4 minutes…
angel & fox: I have it on YouTube, cued up on LONDON with Eyeful Tower rising from phog.
Mike n Rachel in DC: It seems to be the first 5 seconds of the YouTube version
Nothere: Right so everyone in London. It’s hammer time.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Time to get hammered
Rush: Okay, then!
Rush: I was “fearing” that I posted the wrong video!
angel & fox: If i had a video of a hammer, as the Nude Christmas Minstrels used to sing…
Nothere: Well there’s a guy. He doesn’t have a hammer, but h’ looking at a big jewel.
Rush: 2 1/2 minutes…
Mike n Rachel in DC: If I had a hammer…I’d hammer in the morning…
Rush: 🙂
Godwinshelley2: cued
Rush: TWO minutes…
hounder: i’m in the same spot as nt
Nothere: But would you hammer in the evening? Or all over the land?
Mike n Rachel in DC: Must be blind, NT. That thing is big enough to see without that magnifying glass
angel & fox: The jewels haven’t gotten bigger, it’s only the actors have gotten smaller.
Rush: Yes, but he seemed nervous.
Rush: Didn’t want to ruin his diamond!
Nothere: That’s no jewel. It’s a space station.
Rush: 90 seconds…
Rush: 75 seconds…
Mike n Rachel in DC: …danger…warning…love…
Cdirus:
Nothere: GENTLEMEN START YOUR ENGINES!
angel & fox: Notty, i’d hammer out Danger. Nick Danger, Third Eye.
Rush: 60 seconds…
Rush: (Cranking…)
angel & fox: VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOM
Rush: 50 seconds…
Mike n Rachel in DC: tunes guitar
Rush: 40 seconds…
Rush: 30 seconds…
angel & fox: DeGAULLE of these people!
Rush: Cue fog machine…
Rush: 25…
angel & fox: How DARE you!!
Rush: 20…
Mike n Rachel in DC: gets bell
Rush: 15…
Rush: 10…
Rush: 5…
Rush: GO!!!
Matt1:
Rush: Shakes head…
Matt1: This guys needs more coffee
Rush: Wipes mouth…
danventure: LOL
Rush: Makes a phone call…
Mike n Rachel in DC: If I had a gong…I’d gong in the morning…I’d gong in the evening…
Nothere: Maybe it has something to do with them being Thacher in a Churh well.
Rush: Jittery.
Rush: The gloved hand.
Matt1: Ouch
Mike n Rachel in DC: Oof
angel & fox: He cut the cheese.
hounder: pretty nervous for a gem cutter
Nothere: You foolish glove. You missed the phone.
Rush: Chinese characters to…”The New Adventures of Charlie Chan.”
angel & fox: tin can; more fog; chinese characters
Rush: “Archway Hotel London”
Mike n Rachel in DC: Good looking Chan
danventure: Theme sounds more like “Creature from the Black Lagoon”…
angel & fox: Hubba HUBBA,J., what a SUIT!
Rush: Agreed.
Rush: CC and Number One Son…BARRY.
angel & fox: The Archway Hotel! They give cookies?
Nothere: Well the last film the Creature was framed for murder. He objected.
Rush: J. Carroll Naish as Chan.
angel & fox: BARRY?
Mike n Rachel in DC: Barry Chan. Hm.
Rush: Of course, he was Gangor the Snake Charmer in “CC at the Circus.”
Rush: Yes…
Rush: Barry is played by James Hong.
Rush: “Scotland Yard.”
angel & fox: I can see him & a snake face-to-face, ready to arm-wrestle.
Nothere: Your bald head cowers before the power of my mustache.
Godwinshelley2: James Hong has a nice facebook page – he lists things he is doing
angel & fox: Notty, your mustache is always on my list.
Rush: Yes. He remains very busy, doesn’t he!
Rush: he will be 90 in February.
hounder: wow. 90
angel & fox: Scotty Yard there has a nose like a pickle.
Rush: Inspector Duff.
Nothere: The James Hong marathon will take awhile.
Rush: As Duff died in “CC’s Murder Cruise,” we can think that this Duff is related to the late Duff!
Rush: I love Chan’s tie!
angel & fox: Chesterfields. They satisfy.
Rush: Very mid-50s!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Could be a younger cousin Rush. 😉
Nothere: So your for bowties. How about bowlegs?
Rush: Could be!
Rush: That would provide us some continuity!
angel & fox: He’s smoking Parliament—or WILL, soon as he can get some fuse cord.
Rush: 🙂
Mike n Rachel in DC: Guy Faulkes got into trouble like that, Angel
Nothere: THe subtitles must be drunk. They claim Number one son is Berry Chat.
angel & fox: MnR, you are so right. Guy didn’t have the Miracle Tip.
angel & fox: Notty: ; subtitles are for CHUMPS.
angel & fox: I want to know about that WALLPAPER.
Rush: Rupert Davies: Inspector John Duff. Davies appears in ELEVEN episodes.
Nothere: Dr. LAird doesn’t seem to be good at his jb.
angel & fox: Notty—blame it on the National Health.
Rush: Patience can be likened to sleeping flower; cultivate same, and it will reward you handsomely.
angel & fox: Looks like REGULAR heroin.
Nothere: Oh I don’t know Angel. Youtube is usually not that exciting. But you can find some very interesting subtitles.
Rush: J. Carroll Naish was famous for his cross-cultural roles over his long career.
Rush: Barry investigates on his own.
Nothere: You need a court order to challenge this guy’s reputation? Man getting a second opinion must be murder:)
Rush: Maybe not the best idea…
angel & fox: Oh, Notty, i actually revel in the errors. I was a PROOFREADER, in my early days, for some hi-toned stuff (Harvard Business Review asked that my employer put me on their stuff whenever possible)—
angel & fox: i’ve saved wonderful typos in my boxes of junk.
hounder: cool angel
Rush: 🙂
Nothere: A Chan kids tendency to break and enter gets him in trouble. Bout time.
Rush: Yes.
angel & fox: I’m sure Inspector Duff was asked all the time if he was any relation to the Duff Beer duffs.
Nothere: If he was he had the nicest apartment in all of Scotland Yard.
Rush: One does not solve crime by committing another.
angel & fox: “Doctor—mind if i take this 8-year-old issue of Punch?”
Rush: Barry comes through.
hounder: sad charlie doesn’t remember this in his movies. 🙂
angel & fox: NOT “squid pro quo”, i hope!
Nothere: No Chan you really need to discuss this. All your kids seem to have burglary as their second choice of profession.
angel & fox: More criminal wallpaper.
Rush: 🙂
angel & fox: Notty, you introduce a salient line for discussion.
Nothere: So Angel did you see the youtube comment about no one matching the drapes and wallpaper in these things?
angel & fox: JCN has ears like china cups.
angel & fox: BOO-hoo! POOR you, as Mama Soprano used to say.
Rush: Large ears can denote longevity!
Mike n Rachel in DC: Whereas large hands…er…never mind
Nothere: Everybody check your lifeline. Or maybe you shouldn’t.
Woyro has joined this room
Rush: Yes…”never mind”!
Nothere: Hi Woyro
Godwinshelley2: Yes the statues with such long earlobes –
angel & fox: I’m thinking of Lyndon Johnson (not a pretty thought, btw)—HIS ears didn’t keep him vertical.
Woyro: Woyro=PaulM
Mike n Rachel in DC: Hello Woyro/PaulM
Matt1: Hello Paul!
Mike n Rachel in DC: What’s the new name?
Cdirus: Hi Paul1
Rush: Yes, but LBJ had, I am sure, a pretty stressful life!
Cdirus: !
hounder: hi paul and woyro
Woyro: Woyro is my name in the furry community
Rush: Woyro!
angel & fox: Greetings to new characters now at table! Hey Woy!
Nothere: Your secret code has failed. o can’t = both a and m
Rush: I missed your arrivel!
Rush: Sorry!
Rush: WELCOME!
Godwinshelley2: Ha – I never knew the Woyro name before
angel & fox: Rush: LBJ stressed his HOUND DOGS’ ears, as i recall—speaking of Furrys—
Godwinshelley2: I hope you can hold up for the next couple of days of deliveries, Woyro
Woyro: when you go to Monsterbash you’ll know my car because it has WOYRO licence plate
Rush: “Consisting of or resembling fur.” Learn something every day!
angel & fox: APB! APB! BOLO for WOYRO! 10-4!!
angel & fox: Fox consists of AND resembles fur.
Rush: Nice CHOP, Barry!
Matt1: Chop!
angel & fox: DEPLORABLE!
Mike n Rachel in DC: kung fu
Nothere: So ths isn’t just a secret code, but a hidden meaning. Alright someone get me the floodlights, bamboo stalks, and heat up the pincers. We’ll find out whaat Woyro means.
angel & fox: (CC just deplored it)
Rush: 🙂
Rush: “YOU are colaborator!”
Woyro: if you take the word SKUNK and move each letter 4 spaces forward along the alphabet….you get WOYRO
angel & fox: I think Woyro is derived from the Seychelles Islands. Something MUST be, & so far nothing has been found to be. So i say Seychelles.
Rush: “YOU are traitor!”
angel & fox: How about if you transpose QWERTYUIOP?
Rush: The other end of the gloved hand we saw at the beginning.
angel & fox: I hated Van Heflin but i didn’t scratch up a nice attache case with diamonds & Chesterfields.
Rush: Good news follows bad news like day follows night.
Nothere: Well Thanks Paul. But I didn’t even get to threaten you. LEt alone use the stalks. Do you know how long it’s gonna take to put away all this toture junk?
Mike n Rachel in DC: Husband now out of coma!
angel & fox: I like the thick, not-coiled Brit phone cords,
Rush: Clocing credits…
Mike n Rachel in DC:
Rush: (Closing)
Matt1:
Rush: (Applause…)
angel & fox: While we cue BACKFIRE i’m gonna look up a sunburned friend.
Nothere: Touching sunburn friend like pulling suddenly. Jerk move.
Rush: Yes, Angel…
Rush: A five-minute break….
Mike n Rachel in DC: Need to get my sunburn ointment
Rush: Please ready your copy of “Backfire.”
angel & fox: Ready! Aimed!
hounder: ready here
Nothere: (YEaaaah)
Cdirus: I’m paused at the Sphinx
Mike n Rachel in DC: Ready to unwrap the mummy
Matt1: Cued to Sphinx
danventure: Ditto
Nothere: Nobody fir. Five minute break called. Hve your blindfolds and cigarette at the ready.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Imhotep!
Rush: 3 minutes…
Nothere: Arbek Bey
Godwinshelley2: I’m cued
Mike n Rachel in DC: Ardeth?
Godwinshelley2: Sphinx
Rush: TWO minutes…
Mike n Rachel in DC: Sphinx, plank…ready for my workout
Rush: Yes, we start at the Sphinx.

Rush: 60 seconds…
Mike n Rachel in DC: Sounds like the Egyptian tour…start at the Sphinx
Rush: Everyone ready?
Rush: 50 seconds…
Rush: 40 seconds…
Mike n Rachel in DC: Si.
Rush: 30 seconds…
Rush: 25…
Rush: 20…
Nothere: Tanna leaves are packed and ready for the unholy…nothing to se here move along.
Rush: 15…
Rush: 10…
Mike n Rachel in DC: lights torch
Rush: 5…
Rush: GO!!!
Matt1:
Rush: Enters tomb…
Nothere: (Wolf Howl)
Rush: Slides huge stone.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Moves 10000 lb stone
Nothere: Should be a jackel, but we didn’t have that sound effect.
Rush: Twins.
angel & fox: I like how the ancient Egypsheens had smooth-rolling casters,
Rush: Seals him in the tomb.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Buried alive!
Rush: Laughs…
angel & fox: BAD showwwww! BAD showwww!!
Rush: Title…
angel & fox: His WIFE?
hounder: iknew that was coming.
Mike n Rachel in DC: He always wanted to get away from it all
Rush: SHE will hang him!
Nothere: Oh not another evil twin seals his brother in an ancient Egyptian tomb plot. If I had a dollar for every time that happened.
Rush: “British Museum, London”
angel & fox: These double-dudes NEVER consider the ifey-wifey part. Ooooof, in the case of THESE two!
Nothere: Stiff upper lip Angel.
angel & fox: Notty, we can’t talk here.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Egyptologist…
angel & fox: Sir Basil has been HELD UP indeed!
Nothere: Don’t want to confuse it with the British Museum of Alabama Rush.
Rush: Should use white gloves to touch antiquities.
Rush: YES, NT!
angel & fox: I was troubled, too, by the title “BRITISH MUSEUM / LONDON”. In Ohio, London is a big town too. London, England is but a dustmite to a Buckeye.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Ammon Roz in subtitles. 🙂
Rush: Yes?
Rush: Phonetic spelling, no doubt!
angel & fox: THE DORCHESTER. Oh, REALLY? We’re supposed to take a WORD for that?
Cdirus: angel
Mike n Rachel in DC: Amun Ra, perhaps?
angel & fox: Many are eaten at Oxford.
Rush: He forgot: “Irreconsilable differences.”
angel & fox: In remaster series coming 2020, 2TunkAmen has a rap right about here.
Mike n Rachel in DC: He said tomayto, she said tomahto
angel & fox: A “quarter”?
Rush: 🙂
Mike n Rachel in DC: Home for Gentlewomen?
angel & fox: PEnnsylvania 6-5000.
Rush: “St. Mary’s Home for Gentlewomen”
Nothere: Ah but when we learnwho had the potato , we’ll have made real progress Mike and or Racheal.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Is that like a “home” of ill-repute?
angel & fox: SHE looks WAY past “gentle”.
Rush: “857-4309”
angel & fox: MnR: The HOIR’s have blue lights, not so much bronze plaques.
Rush: “11th Commandment”
Mike n Rachel in DC: She clearly stole some curtains to make that dress
Cdirus: 11th commandment?
angel & fox: 867-5309.
Mike n Rachel in DC: Angel: Upscale…
Rush: “You shall love one another as I have loved you.”
Mike n Rachel in DC: Keeping with the theme…
angel & fox: ELLINGTON School for Boys? Take the “A” train!
Rush: She’s blind.
Nothere: No I wanted a photo of your daughter not your cow.
angel & fox: She’d blond.
angel & fox: Richard Dawson? From Hogan’s Heroes?
Mike n Rachel in DC: Hm. Must serve a lot of beef…
Rush: Slip of the key turns blindness to blondness!
Rush: HM…Richard Dawson…
Nothere: I see Nothing NOTHING
Rush: Later the host of “Family Feud”?
angel & fox: A purveyor of political nonsense…? He should STICK AROUND! Probably have his own show by NOW!!
