Mr. Cigar Guy is Frank Conway (I believe) who was definitely in The Day the Earth Stood Still

02-12 19:31
Mike in SF:
This is a liberal-arts university, so there are a few music composition and musicology majors. A lot of non-music majors who play in the orchestras and bands.

Well stocked too

02-12 20:05
Mike in SF:
See? Gas-emitting violins would definitely raise red flags in a music program review. They should have done one.

02-12 20:05
Rush:
Stack ’em and rack ’em, Matt!

02-12 20:05
Rich in Maine:
gas violin similiar to gas filled radio tube

02-12 20:06
Nothere:
Still you have to hand it to whoever put the gas in the violin without having fouled up its tone.

02-12 20:06
Phil:
Could be tetragine

02-12 20:06
Rush:
Soon we will hear the music that was re-used for the opening title.
Complete with water sounds.

02-12 20:06
Phil:
To say nothing of having fingers tiny enough to get in the hole.

02-12 20:06
Mike in SF:
True, NT. Or messing up the varnish to make it obvious.

02-12 20:07
Phil:
It’s a good think they have a waterproof flashlight. In the desert.

02-12 20:07
Tarneverro:
What scene now? My dvd froze and had to restart. I don’t have time display

02-12 20:07
Mike in SF:
Phil, it’s easy to take violins apart (it’s done to repair them) by melting the glue…

02-12 20:07
Nothere:
Building a tomb on a river. What the mummy is gonna go swimming?
5100

02-12 20:07
Godwinshelley:
Prepping to swim in water

02-12 20:07
Rush:
We are about to enter the tomb via the water.

02-12 20:08
Nothere:
There about to dive into the pool in the tomb

02-12 20:08
Mike in SF:
Aqua-man meets the Mummy!

02-12 20:08
Rush:

Here is the opening music.
….with the water sound….

02-12 20:08
Phil:
He’s about to get shot.

02-12 20:09
Mike in SF:
the props are slightly K-Mart in this one

02-12 20:09
Rush:


02-12 20:10
Phil:
Right….now

02-12 20:10
Mike in SF:
Duck!

02-12 20:10
Phil:
Quack

02-12 20:10
Nothere:
Prof Arnold. Of course the dead man is the killer…Uhm I never said that.

02-12 20:10
Rush:
Pulled the dor opener….
(door)

02-12 20:11
Phil:
I like it when they’re going through the water hazard and Charlie leans on the wall and it flexes.

02-12 20:11
Tarneverro:
switched to youtube. Time?

02-12 20:11
Phil:
5445

02-12 20:11
Tarneverro:
TYSM

02-12 20:12
Phil:
5500
5520

02-12 20:13
Phil:
Mapucheri is Egyptian for tetragine

02-12 20:13
Mike in SF:
cough

02-12 20:13
Rush:
The Sekmut mask…though of K-Mart quality, was probably fashioned by Dr. Arnold to scare people away. Not an artifact.

02-12 20:13
Mike in SF:
Damn, Charlie. That hole is going to be hard to fix.

02-12 20:14
Godwinshelley:
I would think a musician would notice there was a repaired hole in their instrument all of a sudden

02-12 20:14
Phil:
It looks like it was made of styrofoam though I doubt they’d invented it yet.

02-12 20:14
Rush:
Luckily it isn’t a Strativarius!

02-12 20:14
Mike in SF:
Maybe after a couple of hits of mapuchari it’s all good, GS.

02-12 20:15
Rush:
True, GS…unless Barry was using it in a darend room?
(darkened)

02-12 20:15
Matt:
Hello F & F!

02-12 20:15
Nothere:
orry Charlie you break it you bought it

02-12 20:15
Mike in SF:
Hey FF

02-12 20:15
Nothere:
Hey FF

02-12 20:16
Friend and Foxx:
Safe to enter?
Hello All Detectives!

02-12 20:16
Rush:
Friend and Foxx!
Welcome!

02-12 20:16
Phil:
I was just asking where you guys were tonight.

02-12 20:16
Rich in Maine:
Hi F&F

02-12 20:16
Godwinshelley:
Just as the inspector arrived in our film

02-12 20:16
Nothere:
Pass Friend. And I guess Foxes are allowed but we are in the desert.

02-12 20:16
Friend and Foxx:
We have a big snowstorm coming in Boston, so Fox & i had to get some tasks done.

02-12 20:17
Phil:
3 shots fired but only two bullets in chest.

02-12 20:17
Rush:
One must have missed!

02-12 20:17
Friend and Foxx:
Yes, Notty—Foxx so wanted to be Desert Foxx tonight. Wish granted!

02-12 20:17
Phil:
Might have passed through

02-12 20:18
Friend and Foxx:
This is a favorite adventure of ours.

02-12 20:18
Phil:
Snowstorms?

02-12 20:18
Rush:
I think that there are FOUR poison-filled glass capsules in the Chan series!

02-12 20:18
Mike in SF:
OK, everyone. Look really surprised.

02-12 20:18
Friend and Foxx:
Yes, Phil. Snowstorm outside, sandstorm in screen here.

02-12 20:19
Godwinshelley:
The Mr Wong story has one

02-12 20:19
Nothere:
Poisioned glass. Poisioned cigarettes. I’m getting a taste tester.

02-12 20:19
Friend and Foxx:
Yet we are as comfortable as any Zeppelin passenger!

02-12 20:19
Godwinshelley:
This isn’t long after WW! – so poison gas is rather fresh in minds

02-12 20:20
Mike in SF:
Just avoid the Hindenburg, FF and all will be well.

02-12 20:20
Friend and Foxx:
Notty, here, try one of mine!

02-12 20:20
Nothere:
Luxury or cocah zepplin

02-12 20:20
Rich in Maine:
FF, am in Kittery, our snow went from from 10″ to 2 ” tonight!

02-12 20:20
Phil:
No Notty, you want to try one of mine!

02-12 20:20
Tarneverro:
Hopefully it wil miss us here in OH

02-12 20:20
Rush:
“Charlie Chan’s Chance,” “Murder Over New York,” “Docks of New Orleans”…. (Make that three!)

02-12 20:21
Friend and Foxx:
We go coach. From the lower level of the gondola we can fling our ciggie butts without having to yell “Garde loux!!”

02-12 20:21
Phil:
I wish it snowed here like that. We’re just at the very foot of the Allegheny Mountains. We had maybe 4″ this year and that’s it.

02-12 20:21
Friend and Foxx:
Mr.T., we shall exert thought waves.

02-12 20:22
Rush:
F&F…. 
What do you call a Cairo hat shop?

02-12 20:22
Godwinshelley:
what

02-12 20:22
Rush:
A fez dispensor.

02-12 20:22
Mike in SF:


02-12 20:22
Godwinshelley:
Ha@

02-12 20:23
Matt:


02-12 20:23
Godwinshelley:
Ha!

02-12 20:23
Nothere:
By my bedouin ansectors

02-12 20:23
Tarneverro:


02-12 20:23
Friend and Foxx:


02-12 20:24
Nothere:
Ah the old make the killer bump off the witness before he can talk trick.

02-12 20:24
Phil:
Those Egyptian doors really don’t offer too much privacy.

02-12 20:24
Nothere:
Ohio will be eliminated? Gasp. THats gonna leave a big hole.

02-12 20:24
Rush:
THe Pretenders were right, I guess, F&F.

02-12 20:24
Phil:
Nothing buy a parking lot

02-12 20:25
Friend and Foxx:
If you don’t walk like an Egyptian before you go in, you do when you walk out.

02-12 20:25
Phil:
And pigeons from hell

02-12 20:25
Mike in SF:
Sadly, I have to depart for a dinner meeting. Great to see everyone. Have a great week and see you in Shanghai!

02-12 20:25
Matt:
Take care Mike and enjoy the rest of your trip

02-12 20:25
Godwinshelley:
Night Mike – enjoy your time away from DC

02-12 20:25
Phil:
Tell all those pesky eggheads we said “Hi” Mike

02-12 20:25
Nothere:
You could start a tiddlewinks tournament.
Night Mike

02-12 20:25
Rush:
Arnoldf’s look changes to a murderous GLARE!

02-12 20:25
Mike in SF:


02-12 20:26
Phil:
Gonna’ do a little plumbing.

02-12 20:26
Tarneverro:
Charlie to the rescue!

02-12 20:26
Rush:
Chan nearly waited too long!

02-12 20:26
Friend and Foxx:
We don’t have The Story Behinf The Story. I’m guessing it’s the tail end of some sport reault or something, one of life’s happy ragged hems. I STOLE IT, of course, but only to Share it.

02-12 20:26
Rich in Maine:
caught in the act!

02-12 20:26
Rush:
Snowshoes came through as well!

02-12 20:27
Rush:
Some thefts, with the thought of entertainment, are valid, F&F!

02-12 20:28
Phil:
That was my philosophy while I was in college Rush.

02-12 20:28
Rush:
“Get him outta here….”
Yes, Phil!!!


02-12 20:28
Friend and Foxx:
Thanks for even that implication of absolution, Rush!
I confess i stole THIS one (below) too, just today.:

02-12 20:28
Phil:
Sometime I’ll tell you about the missing Egyptian papyrus shrub we “re-locate” from the college cafeterria.

02-12 20:29
Friend and Foxx:


02-12 20:29
Godwinshelley:
The End

02-12 20:29
Matt:
<yee-haw>

02-12 20:29
Rush:
We see that it was possible Snowshoes would return….
THE END
(Applause…)

02-12 20:29
Nothere:
“Yeah”

Tarneverro:

Friend and Foxx:

02-12 20:30
Rich in Maine:

02-12 20:30
Nothere:

02-12 20:30
Rush:
Possible the final leg in the “connected” Chan advebtures?

02-12 20:30
Godwinshelley:

02-12 20:30
Friend and Foxx:

Nothere:
Point your camels to the sunset and ride.

02-12 20:30
Phil:
Book ’em Danno

02-12 20:30
Rush:
I should be here from the start next week!

02-12 20:31
Friend and Foxx:
