RE: Growing older in Puna - allensylves - 04-05-2016 Aloha Oink, You must have some BAD birds. I had a Meiwa tree in Baton Rouge and the birds never bothered them. Now blueberries and grapes they did not share. Allen Finally in HPP RE: Growing older in Puna - oink - 04-05-2016 My bad! It's actually a Loquat tree. Big difference even if the names are somewhat similar. Pua`a S. FL Big Islander to be. RE: Growing older in Puna - allensylves - 04-05-2016 Yup, I can see a problem with loquats. I did not have them for long in baton Rouge because of fire blight. I have a new one here and am hoping for minimal bird problems. Allen Finally in HPP RE: Growing older in Puna - TomK - 04-05-2016 "Hey Tom I guess W. C. Fields wasn't popular in England? There is a Youtube clip of his movie "It's a Gift" that made kumquats famous in this country. Hilarious (and not PC at all)." Thanks, leilaniguy. I've certainly heard of W.C. Fields but not that familiar with his work (I know he was a comedian, actor and writer, but that's about it). Is this the clip? https://youtu.be/y189-69cQPs Even if it isn't, it so appropriate for a thread about growing older. Very funny! RE: Growing older in Puna - leilaniguy - 04-06-2016 That's it. Eighty some years later, so funny. The blind man is "the house detective at the Grand Hotel". RE: Growing older in Puna - TomK - 04-06-2016 Thanks for confirming that, leilaniguy. I can see some of the humor in that clip being adopted in some classic 60s US movies, ones I adore. I'm a big fan of British humor, as you'd expect, but that scene reminded me of later movies such as "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, World" and "The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming". True classics that just have no modern counterparts. RE: Growing older in Puna - TomK - 04-06-2016 PS. Quick question - why was the top of W.C. Fields' hat missing in that movie clip? RE: Growing older in Puna - EightFingers - 04-07-2016 "Pre-squeal" hearing aid....pretty cool! Does it work well for you? I guess that explains why you didn't hear the hail. Another mystery solved! RE: Growing older in Puna - TomK - 04-07-2016 Huh? What did you say? Speak louder! |
