07-08 18:31

07-08 18:32

It was good, thank you.

How are you doing, Ziah?

07-08 18:33

Ziah:

I’m still in Vietnam right now, but heading to Singapore for a short trip tomorrow.  I’m going with a Vietnamese friend who has never left Ho Chi Minh City before, so very exciting!

07-08 18:33

07-08 18:34

Matt:

Sounds fun, enjoy Ziah!

07-08 18:34

Rush:

WELCOME….LOU!!!

07-08 18:34

HonoluLou:

Thanks Rush.

07-08 18:34

Rush:

So, we will say, “Good Morning” to Ziah!

07-08 18:34

Ziah:

TYSM!

07-08 18:34

Rush:

07-08 18:34

HonoluLou:

Buongiorno, Ziah.

07-08 18:35

Ziah:

A lovely morning with blue skies over here.

07-08 18:35

Rush:

Italian is beautiful at any time of the day…

07-08 18:35

HonoluLou:

Si, grazie.

07-08 18:35

Ziah:

Agreed

07-08 18:36

HonoluLou:

So have you had Pho today yet, Ziah?

07-08 18:36

Rush:

Well, we have at least four of us for the two extras for this showing.

07-08 18:36

Ziah:

Not yet, it’s only 6.30am so just starting off with a cup of tea!

07-08 18:37

Rush:

Great way to begin the day, Ziah.

And with school out, you can have a relaxing moring…

07-08 18:37

Ziah:

To be honest though, pho is not my favourite.  I prefer a hu tieu or mi quang!  Vietnamese food is incredibly varied 

07-08 18:37

Rush:

I can imagine, Ziah!

07-08 18:37

Ziah:

Absolutely   How is your summer Rush?

07-08 18:38

Rush:

Very low key thus far, with the high piont being the Stones concert in Chicago last Sunday!

07-08 18:38

HonoluLou:

I once at Chicken’s feet in Thailand, not the most scrumptious thing I’ve had!

07-08 18:38

Ziah:

Yes, you must still be buzzing from that Rush, it looked so amazing!

07-08 18:39

Rush:

Yes…still reverberating in my mind to be sure…

07-08 18:40

Rush:

I went out shopping with our younger daughter yesterday…nice.

Some father/daughter time.

07-08 18:40

Matt:

That’s always nice & special

07-08 18:41

Rush:

It sure is.

Kids grow up so fast.

07-08 18:41

Ziah:

That’s a nice way to spend the holiday.  Low key is sometimes better.

07-08 18:41

HonoluLou:

That’s nice rush, so how much did YOU spend 

07-08 18:42

Rush:

Agreed, Ziah.  We will be traveling to California at the end of the month to see our oldger daughter.

(older)

07-08 18:42

Matt:

That should be a fun trip back

07-08 18:42

Rush:

Matt, I will ask in advance for your Monday night assistance, please, at that time!

07-08 18:42

Matt:

If I’m around, of course!

07-08 18:43

HonoluLou:

Hard to believe half the year is already gone!

07-08 18:43

Matt:

Amazing, huh?

07-08 18:44

Rush:

I am thinking about trying to schedul a visit to the USC film library to read the portion of tghe script for “The Black Camel” too try to see which line was cut from the film when they find the body of Shelah fane.

True, Lou…

07-08 18:44

HonoluLou:

Rush, I can solve that for you…”Eeeek!”

07-08 18:44

07-08 18:44

Rush:

LOU:

Ziah:

07-08 18:45

Rush:

It has puzzled me for years.

07-08 18:45

HonoluLou:

A man must follow his star! Good for you Rush.

07-08 18:45

Rush:

I hve a feelng the line is something like “Oh, GOD!” and that was deemed inappropriate.

07-08 18:45

Matt:

Can’t wait to hear about it

07-08 18:46

Rush:

IF the visit works out…yes.

07-08 18:46

Matt:

Do you need to make an appointment?

07-08 18:47

Rush:

I hope they aren’t closed for the summer.

Yes, and appointment is needed especially in oreder to collect the scripts needed.

07-08 18:47

07-08 19:37

Nothere:

Sorry Lou. I broke out the cart, but Absinthe is a bit too high brow for me to answer that. Howe about a steak? Don’t know if it goes well with the drinl but its good.

Phil how about BB, Kashimo, Snowshoes?

07-08 19:37

Phil:

Well, there goes the blackmail angle.

07-08 19:44

Rush:

Maybe Toler put on some weight after he received the role, Len?

07-08 19:44

HonoluLou:

This seems to me one of the few Chan films that Harold Huber, doesn’t bring comic relief.

07-08 19:44

Rich in Maine:

yes Lou, HH plays it straight

07-08 19:45

Rush:

Good point, Lou.

07-08 19:45

HonoluLou:

NT: The ribeye is delish!

07-08 19:45

Phil:

As evidence of Jimmy’s idiocy.

07-08 19:45

Rush:

I like the rear projection in this scene.

07-08 19:45

LEN FREEMAN & LINDSAY:

I think Lilly ha a lot to teach Jimmy

07-08 19:45

07-08 19:47

Rush:

07-08 19:48

Phil:

Dang that chick’s a little wild

07-08 19:48

Rush:

Most words of Chinese spoken by Toler.

07-08 19:48

Nothere:

Considering how generous I’ve been to myself the Scotch is holding up well. Here have asome Lou.

07-08 19:49

Rush:

HINDU gentleman???

07-08 19:49

Nothere:

Ah  I was gonna say she didn’t need more, but coffee makes sense.

07-08 19:49

HonoluLou:

Oh No, NT! Give it the charming ex-wife of policeman. I can’t handle the scotch.

07-08 19:49

Phil:

Just what she needs, another drink.

07-08 19:49

Matt:

Where’s Gerty?

07-08 19:49

Rush:

07-08 19:49

Phil:

Hey there’s the captain of the Suba Maru.

07-08 19:49

Butler’s (?) voice familiar. Is he in other Chans?

07-08 19:50

Rush:

Back on the Suva Star, Matt…

07-08 19:50

Nothere:

Shrugs. I’ll handle this Lou. Downs scotch. Hic,

Phil:

Where’s the parrot?

07-08 19:50

HonoluLou:

NT  

07-08 19:51

Nothere:

Everyone either loved or hated Lola. Did no one feel ambivalant?

07-08 19:52

Rush:

She had that sort of personality, NT!

Either loved her or hated her!

07-08 19:52

HonoluLou:

Slippery man…love it.

07-08 19:52

Rush:

Yes.

07-08 19:53

HonoluLou:

That definitely copies from Black Camel.

07-08 19:53

Rush:

With a statement like that, she could have pleaded insanity!

yes, Lou.

07-08 19:53

Nothere:

I drugged her. The confession was legit anyway. I promise.

07-08 19:54

Rush:

That line by Toler was very similar to that of Oland.

“Professional ability…detective…”

07-08 19:54

HonoluLou:

Yes, Rush.

07-08 19:54

Phil:

Problematic as to whether that “confession” would be admissible.

07-08 19:54

Rush:

Jimmy was influenced by Tombstone Fletcher there…

07-08 19:54

LEN FREEMAN & LINDSAY:

Funnybit coming

07-08 19:55

07-08 19:56

Rich in Maine:

and he’s down

07-08 19:57

Rush:

Yes he was!

07-08 19:58

Rush:

LOTS of white or light costuming in this one…as well as sets!

“Silvery” atmosphere.

07-08 19:58

HonoluLou:

True Rush.

07-08 19:58

Rush:

Nothere:

HonoluLou:

Something I said, Rush?

07-08 19:58

Nothere:

Ah Rich great minds think alike,

07-08 19:59

Rush:

The climate in Rio is not suitable for a fox fur!

07-08 19:59

HonoluLou:

Oh, yes. The pin and scratches were in Black Camel, too.

07-08 19:59

Rich in Maine:

u bet NT and now for the scrtached floor trick again

07-08 19:59

Rush:

Perhaps a white faux boa?

07-08 20:00

Rush:

yes, Lou!

Chan is feeling a good dose of Deja Vu at this point!

07-08 20:00

Nothere:

Ever notice how these little nicks and scrapes are never something old? Always tied stright to the murder.

07-08 20:00

LEN FREEMAN & LINDSAY:

I probably missed it …re: Hamilton McFadden?

07-08 20:01

Rich in Maine:

NT, on my wood floors they will find plenty of scratches!

07-08 20:01

Rush:

FIGHT!!!

07-08 20:01

Paul Minturn:

07-08 20:02

Rush:

Jimmy got too close to him!

07-08 20:02

Phil:

Nice move on the butler’s part

07-08 20:02

Rush:

CLUNK!!!

07-08 20:02

Nothere:

Breaking and entering, threatening with a deadly weapon, assault. Jimmy will get 509 years for this.

50 even

07-08 20:02

Rush:

Jimmy’s dive worthy of his big brother!

07-08 20:02

Rich in Maine:

07-08 20:03

Ziah:

Nothere:

Someone switched the switch

07-08 20:05

HonoluLou:

Is that Hamilton McFadden?

07-08 20:05

Rush:

Yes.

07-08 20:05

LEN FREEMAN & LINDSAY:

director of Black Camel

07-08 20:06

HonoluLou:

Ah yes, Len. TYSM.

07-08 20:06

Rush:

he was director Val Martino in “The Black Camel” during the Kailua Beach filming scene.

07-08 20:06

Rush:

And, YES…as Len said.

Sort of ironic that he appears in this film as well.

07-08 20:07

HonoluLou:

I’m sure it was no coincidence!

07-08 20:07

Rush:

Probably right, Lou!

07-08 20:07

Nothere:

Anyone have a rubber hose?

07-08 20:07

LEN FREEMAN & LINDSAY:

Rush:

Bulldog Drummand mention…

07-08 20:08

Rush:

“The pin!”

07-08 20:08

Rich in Maine:

if the shoe doesnt fit, you must aquit

07-08 20:09

Rush:

“If the pin isn’t innit…we have to wait a minnit…”

07-08 20:09

HonoluLou:

HaHa, Rush.

07-08 20:09

Nothere:

Who put the bop in the bop she bop?

07-08 20:09

LEN FREEMAN & LINDSAY:

07-08 20:10

Phil:

Predecessor of a date rape drug

07-08 20:10

HonoluLou:

Len, right. smooth skin too!

07-08 20:10

Rush:

Kay Linaker was called “The Queen of Scream”

07-08 20:10

HonoluLou:

Rush, really. Not for Chan films though, right?

07-08 20:11

Nothere:

I’m happy. Are you happy?

07-08 20:11

Rush:

She did a pretty good job in “Charlie Chan’s Murder Cruise,” Lou!

07-08 20:12

Rich in Maine:

07-08 20:13

Rush:

As CC said…”During these economic times….”

07-08 20:13

Nothere:

Did anyone use their real name? At this rate you might start wondering if I’m really Nothere.

07-08 20:13

Godwinshelley:

Definitely pre-Covid

07-08 20:14

Ziah:

Yes, very very similar to Black Camel.

07-08 20:14

HonoluLou:

Ah, Nothere…a ruse?

07-08 20:14

Rush:

But…wasn’t covid transmitted theough the air?

07-08 20:14

Phil:

Maybe is “Isthere?”

07-08 20:15

Rush:

But, yes…pre-covid for sure!

Pre lots of stuff, actually!

07-08 20:15

Nothere:
