FalkirkBairn: You did a fine job keeping conversations moving and making sure everyone was involved in the discussion.
It's fascinating listening to the knowledge everyone has and being able to contribute where I can!
With all the talk about The Twilight Zone I was looking to see if it was available to watch. I noticed that all seasons except season 4 are available to purchase to stream. Is there something about season 4 that means it's not available?
I was also looking at Howard's excellent thread on Walking Distance and it highlighted how, even though I like Herrmann's scores for The Twilight Zone, there's so much I must be missing by not knowing the episodes.

Thank you for Friday, guys! One of the good ones, for sure. Only problem is that I was violently hung over yesterday, so much so that I could only move from the bed to the couch and back to bed again; couldn't even log on here. In fact, I'm even hung over today, but on a more 'normal' level.
In addition to the regulars, great to see Jim pop in. Like when I first saw Onya, some of you guys look nothing like I had imagined.
My memory of what we actually talked about is hazy at best, but I don't think anyone made a fool out of themselves. Did I play my Jew's harp and kazoo for you, or was that for the earlier Maintitles crowd?
It will be a few weeks to the next one, I think.
There was Jew's harp on a few occasions, and at least one appearance of the kazoo.
That was a really fun time!

Sci Fi Channel (before it took on the cutesy SYFY name) used to show the Twilight Zone in hour long chunks so that they could show both half hour and hour long episodes. This was how I saw several of the hour long episodes from the later seasons. I did always enjoy this episode: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Of_Late_I_Think_of_Cliffordville starring Julie Newmar (Catwoman) as the devil.

Back on topic. After the marathon happy hour Friday, I took a break from drinking Saturday. Today, I plan to fire up the grill, and enjoy some of this from a local microbrewery:

Is that your expensive cognac? I remember someone mentioning their expensive cognac.

I'm gonna make it to one of these! Soon. Hopefully.
Rick, I've tried to research ways you can join AND drink. But to accomodate Europe, the US and Australia at the same time is tricky. If, for the next session, I start at 15:00 local time (on a Saturday rather than a Friday), it should be around 22:30 where you live, so that gives you a few hours, at least. Of course, that's way too early for the US folks - at least for a drink - but if we just keep on going, it might be feasible later on in the session.
In short, I'm thinking of doing an "Open House", in way, which for me would be a 12-13-hour session -- but one could come and go a bit. Log on, log off to eat something, log back on etc. Something like that; an experiment, really.

That would be a big commitment but it would ensure that the gathering was global!

I've found that, since I've 'met' some regular posters on this board via Zoom, I've felt more enthused to be more active on the board.
So a big thanks for those who have taken part in Thor's gathering.
