08-28 18:35Mike in DC: Hello Duane!

08-28 18:35Matt: Tell her we said hello, plz

08-28 18:35Rush: Yes, please do.

08-28 18:35Mike in DC: Yes, we’re going to be using our frequent flyer miles the next couple of years!

08-28 18:36duanezetrouer@gmail.com: Yes please do

08-28 18:36Mike in DC: First trip to Ann Arbor for me is Sept 21. Counting days.

08-28 18:36Matt: Semester, year, COUPLE of years?

08-28 18:36Rush: I can only imaging, Mike!

08-28 18:36Mike in DC: Hopefully once she gets settled she might have time to hop on and join the fun.

08-28 18:37Mike in DC: It’s a three-year program. The first year is the worst for us being together…after that we should be able to find more time to be in one place or the other.

08-28 18:37Rush: In 30+ years, Marie and I have at most been apart for about ten days!(At a stretch)

08-28 18:37Mike in DC: We have you beat already, Rush!

08-28 18:37Rush: indeed!

08-28 18:38Mike in DC: <-Mike …. long way… -> Rachel

08-28 18:38Rush: Well, burn through some of those Frequent Flyer miles as you said!

08-28 18:38Mike in DC: Hm. That didn’t come out quite as planned.I travel a lot, so I’ve got about 250K to use…

08-28 18:39Rush: Very good!

08-28 18:39Matt: My Father used to say “it builds character”…..Still not too sure what it means

08-28 18:39Rush: Yes.

08-28 18:39Mike in DC: We could do with less character and more togetherness, Matt.

08-28 18:39Matt: Exactly!

08-28 18:39Rush: As is said about absence…

08-28 18:40Mike in DC: I can probably break rocks with my character by now…lol

08-28 18:40Rush: The heart will, indeed grow fonder!

08-28 18:40Matt: lol

08-28 18:41Rush: The extra: “Secret Agent X-9 – Chapter 07 – High Pressure Deadline – 1945”

08-28 18:41Mike in DC: True, Rush. And it helps that I grew up in Detroit and went to Michigan, so a lot of this is a walk down memory lane for me. We’re able to sort of share the experience she’s having…which is nice.

08-28 18:41Rush: Are we ready?

08-28 18:41Mike in DC: Ready for X9.

08-28 19:40Rush: YES!

08-28 19:40Nothere: Where. It’s a hotel. I’d hide it on the roof. No one will look there.

08-28 19:41Rush: “When nothing makes a noise, I gotta worry!”

08-28 19:42Rush: A deceased dummy!

08-28 19:42Nothere: Rational course of actio.

08-28 19:43Mike in DC: Does the dummy get a stage prop tin can?

08-28 19:43Rush: “Employees Only”

08-28 19:43Matt: Nope

08-28 19:43Mike in DC: Makes sense. Monogram. Low budget…

08-28 19:44Rush: All kinds of hiding going on in this basement!

08-28 19:47Matt:


08-28 19:47Rich Maine: DB#2

08-28 19:47Rush: TYSM…Matt…

08-28 19:48Nothere: He didn’t even say the killer is first.

08-28 19:48Rush: Not a good idea to outrun a police car!

08-28 19:48hounder: never a good idea to announce to the killer you know he’s the killer

08-28 19:48Rush: Yes, Louise!

08-28 19:49Rich Maine: I arrest you……oops not yet

08-28 19:52Louise: Not a bad song

08-28 19:52Rich Maine: that flower is going to strangle her

08-28 19:53Rush:


08-28 19:53Mike in DC: She sounds more like an alto than a Baroness.

08-28 19:53Rush: Agreed, Louise.I think it was written especially for this film.

08-28 19:53Rush: I could picture Doris day singing it.

08-28 19:54Nothere: Yes lets go to the ladies dressing room. I am not a pervert.:)( Mike
