Matt:
Hello Rush!

09-11 18:30
Rush:
Hi, Matt!
How was your visit with family?

09-11 18:31
Matt:
Hope you had a good week
Very nice, thnx….a good trip to catch up

09-11 18:31
Rush:
Pretty good week here, thank you.

09-11 18:31
Matt:
Has school started?

09-11 18:32
Rush:
Yes. We are in week 3 actually!
It’s been a rough day however.

09-11 18:32
Matt:
Very good. Hope for a mild winter and get out early?

09-11 18:33
Rush:
A coworker/friend where my younger daughter works committed suicide.
It’s been really hard for her.

09-11 18:33
Matt:
Oh, my. SO very sorry

09-11 18:33
Rush:
Yes.

09-11 18:33
Matt:
I can only imagine
Hi Mike

09-11 18:34
Mike in DC:
Good evening. Yikes, Rush.

09-11 18:34
Rush:
She took about half the day off from school today after hearing the news.
Hi, Mike.

09-11 18:35
Matt:
It seems to be happening WAY too often these days, sadly

09-11 18:35
Rush:
We are going to seek counselling for her. First at school.
Yes, Matt.

09-11 18:35
Matt:
Wise

09-11 18:35
Mike in DC:
I hope all goes well, Rush. High school?

09-11 18:36
Rush:
The school counselor already helped a bit today.

09-11 18:36
Rush:
Also, we have a great religious nin who teaches at our school, and she talked with Rachel as well.
(nun)

09-11 18:37
Matt:
If I may ask the age?

09-11 18:37
Rush:
Rachel did go to theater practice this afternoon/evening.
Hopefully this will help a little.

09-11 18:38
Mike in DC:
That’s a positive, for sure.

09-11 18:38
Matt:
Being around peers could be helpful

09-11 18:38
Rush:
16 or 17.

09-11 18:38
Matt:
Terrible

09-11 18:39
Mike in DC:
And I’m sure this is really stressful for you, Rush. Sending good vibes from DC…

09-11 18:39
Rush:
They were going to be going to a Taylor Swift concert later this year together.

09-11 18:39
Matt:
My heart goes out to Rachel…..as well as you and your wife Rush. It can’t be easy to see to experience this

09-11 18:40
Rush:
TYSM, Mike amd Matt.

09-11 18:40
Rush:
Anyway, our turnout tonight might may be a bit less due to our movie not being online.

09-11 18:41
Matt:
I would assume, yet I can’t imagine why this is the only Chan that can’t be?

09-11 18:41
Rush:
We can wait about 5 more minutes on the extra….

09-11 18:41
Mike in DC:
Whenever there was a small turnout at a family gathering, my grandmother would always say, “Well, all the important people are here”

09-11 18:42
Rush:
There are sometimes a couple of later Monograms that are missing.

09-11 18:42
Matt:
I also read your email about Louise passing on her grey copy…..I can easily do that as well.

09-11 18:42
Rush:
I guess one reason is that they are not the “big name” CC adventures.

09-11 18:42
Mike in DC:
Yes. Sky Dragon was always hard to find.

09-11 18:42
Rush:
Less are available because of that alone.
True, Mike.

09-11 18:43
Rush:
And it may be tougher in time.

09-11 18:43
Matt:
If you want, I can mail you my grey copy to pass on to a fellow Chan fan

09-11 18:44
Mike in DC:
All the more reason to get the films while they’re around!

09-11 18:44
Rush:
Yes, we can do that, Matt. I guess can donate my “greys” as well!

09-11 18:44
Matt:
Yes Mike

09-11 18:44
Rush:
I save those for an “emergency.”
True, Mike!

09-11 18:45
Matt:
If I recall, those greys are “tough” watching films
We got spoiled with the remastering

09-11 18:45
Mike in DC:
I ripped my DVDs and have all the movies as .avi files on a hard drive. Would it help to have a Chan Clan Google drive of the films?

09-11 18:45
Rush:
Our extra: Secret Agent X-9 – Chapter 09 – The Danger Point – 1945
Also, Hounder’s mother passed away this weekend.

09-11 18:46
Matt:
Ready here

09-11 18:46
Rush:
She may not be here understandably.

09-11 18:46
Matt:
Oh, so sorry to here.

09-11 18:46
Mike in DC:
Oh no!

09-11 18:46
Rush:
Yes. She had been failing fast.

09-11 18:47
Mike in DC:
I remember that the last time she was here mom was not doing well

09-11 18:47
Matt:
Do you have her email or mailing address? I actually wanted to talk with her

09-11 18:47
Rush:
So, we can dedicate this evening to Hounder’s mom…

09-11 18:47
Matt:
Yes

09-11 18:47
Mike in DC:
Yes

09-11 18:47

Love this music. Should have used it for one the “Chan walks to the car” scenes

09-11 18:49
Matt:
Yes!

09-11 18:49
Rush:
It would be fun to look up the original X-9 comics that this serial is based on!

09-11 18:49
Matt:
Some exciting filler

09-11 18:49
Rush:
Yes on that, Mike!

09-11 18:50
Matt:
Chan Bros!

09-11 18:50
Rush:
Number One and Three sons!
YES!

09-11 18:50
Mike in DC:
Sibling rivalry?

09-11 18:50
Rush:
INDEED!


09-11 18:50
Matt:
Pop liked me best!

09-11 18:50
Mike in DC:
Pop always liked you better. Take that!

09-11 18:50
Rush:

I still love the “irony” of Luke’s character being noamed Ak Fong!

09-11 18:51
Rush:
That was the name of Benson Fong’s restaurants in L.A.!

09-11 18:51
Matt:
Ah!

09-11 18:51
Mike in DC:
Nice hand off

09-11 18:51
Rush:

09-11 18:52
Mike in DC:
Now she can’t see the cue cards on the floor!

09-11 18:52
Rush:
A Chanism there from Keye Luke!

09-11 18:52
Matt:
I caught that too, lol

09-11 18:52
Rush:
Another Chanism!
This is fun to hear!

09-11 18:54
Rush:
Hakehima.

09-11 18:54
Mike in DC:
Sounds like a new kind of sushi

09-11 18:54
Rush:


09-11 18:54
Mike in DC:


09-11 18:55

09-11 18:55
Hounder:

09-11 18:56
Rush:
We are dedicating the evening to your mother.
How are you doing?

09-11 18:57
Hounder:
It’s going to be different for a while. But it’ll be fine.

09-11 18:57
Rush:
Yes, I know you will.
There will be a lot to do following her passing, i know.

09-11 18:58
Hounder:
Lol. I already had the epiphony that I can get in the car and go to the store without planning a week in advance. Lol

09-11 18:59
Rush:
If I may make one suggestion, get about 10 copies if the death certificate, as you will need a number of them for various reasons.

09-11 19:00
Hounder:
I got 3 copies that have cause of death and 12 without. Lol. I learned with my husband’s passing you need more than you think you need.

09-11 19:01
Rush:
Yes.

09-11 19:01
Hounder:
Lol. I’ve been making lists.

09-11 19:02
Mike in DC:
You’re on it, hounder.

Yes.

09-11 19:02
Matt:
Never a doubt

09-11 19:03
Hounder:
Thank you for all you guys help and support. It meant a lot to me to have you in my corner.

09-11 19:03
Rush:
We are still in your corner, Hounder!

09-11 19:03
Matt:
We’re always here for you Hounder

09-11 19:03
Mike in DC:
The Chan clan is quite a group. Sort of a phenomenon.
100%

09-11 19:04
Rush:
THE END…for this week’s chapter.
You are right, Mike!

09-11 19:05
Rush:
The old guy tends to rub off on a us, does he not?

09-11 19:05
Rush:
We get a few splinters from the old chop-stick!

10 minutes till showtime..

09-11 19:06
Mike in DC:
He does, Rush. Wish I could quote a nice aphorism now…

09-11 19:06
Rush:
Understood, Mike!

09-11 19:07
Mike in DC:

Rush:

09-11 19:07

Yes.
09-11 19:11
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
Foxx asked.

09-11 19:11

Rush:
Cued here, too.

09-11 19:11

09-11 19:12
Louise:
CUED

09-11 19:12
Godwinshelley:
I think they will tear down the hotel and put up a mall or parking lot

09-11 19:12
Rush:
Why will it be closed for Halloween?

09-11 19:12
Rich_Maine:
so have folks broken out the pumpkin spice lattes yet ?

To start tearing it down

09-11 19:16
Rush:
Newsreel-like beginning.

09-11 19:16
Godwinshelley:
Was this based on a non-Chan story, Rush?

09-11 19:18
Godwinshelley:
Why, why do you take your chauffeur on the bus? Shouldn’t he meet you with the car at someother location when you are ready to leave?

09-11 19:18
Rush:
The script for this movie, GS?

09-11 19:18
Louise:
Yes GS!

09-11 19:18
Godwinshelley:
yes

09-11 19:19
Rich_Maine:
yes GS, why no car this trip?

09-11 19:19
Mike in DC:
Chan is economizing?

09-11 19:19
Hounder:
Sorry. I got distracted. Thank you all for the prayers and wishes. They mean a lot to me.

09-11 19:19
Rush:
It was, as far as I can tell, written especially for this movie.
It may have been influenced by something else.
Perry White….

This is an accurate shot of travel across the Golden gate Bridge into san francisco.

09-11 19:25
Paul M:
i did a test this morning. it isn’t Covid. just a chest cold, i guess

09-11 19:25
Rush:
Nice use of rear-projection.

09-11 19:26
Louise:

09-11 19:26

09-11 19:27
Paul M:
i’m just going to stay away from people as much as i can until it blows over.
09-11 19:27
Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
In one way or another, we all have been prison matrons.

09-11 19:27
tenman:
Good idea!

09-11 19:27
Rich_Maine:
Rush, just like watching Dragnet, same actors always show up

09-11 19:28
Rush:
I have trouble with breathing my own co2, Tenman!

09-11 19:28
Paul M:

09-11 19:28
Rush:

Angel Santiago Saltamontes:
The Sam Spade, Dangerous Assignment and (New Adventures of) Nero Wolfe radio series were just a few that come to our mind here, as having ensemble casts we, anyway sometimes laughed at—

Emigrant Gap – A small community in Placer County, California. Emigrant Gap is located a quarter mile south of Emigrant Gap, a pass through the Sierra Nevada mountains traveled by early settlers in the 1840s. It lies at an elevation of 5,180 feet on Interstate Highway 80 (formally US 40, the Lincoln Highway, the first coast-to-coast U.S. highway).
