Any Interest On Timespast ?
This site might not be new to others but I just discovered it. The nice site is ran by Jimbo Berkey and offers free classic movies, tv shows, music and radio shows for watching online or downloading.
Most that I have seen are in pretty good shape depending on the age. Some are a little fuzzy but hey! it's free and mostly unavailable in any shape or form.
There are companion sites featuring old tv shows and radio shows from yesteryear.

Wow!...I forgot this was ever here...
I don't know how often people read or post on each other's blog. In my case, I forgot I even had on (lol! )In case anyone does read this I just wanted to alert you to the fact that I attempted to purchase a subscription to the subscription service called uploaded.net and my personal bank alerted me to the fact that there has been numerous scam reports and complaints filed against this site. I don't know if it is the site or somehow someone unrelated to the site is perpetrating fraud and criminal activities against people that attempt to signup. Luckily, when the charge on my bank card came through to authorize the transaction my bank alerted me to ensure that the charge was legitimate. That is when they informed me of the problems. I decided not to allow the charge to be made. It could have gone through with no issues but I decided to play it safe and avoid problems. I did notice that the company behind the site was in Holland but the money went to the UK. (once again...probably legit but who knows?) Even if not legit, I only fund this account when I am going to make a purchase and only for the total amount of the purchase. Cheers!

"Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid" (Universal-International, 1948) this was another opportunity to work with one of my favourite screen stars of all time and a true movie legend Ann Blyth. William Powell. Unfortunately, Mr. Powell was very ill during the production, but "you would never have known it." He was a consummate actor and professional at all times. Filming was to start the summer of 1947, but ended up being delayed until February of '48. The cast and crew endured rainy weather, unusually cold temperatures and even pneumonia from some of its principal cast while they managed to "pretend" to be happily secluded on a South Sea island.
The plot revolves around Mr. Peabody (Powell), a "mature" gentleman on the eve of his fiftieth birthday. When he and his beautiful wife (Irene Hervey) escape to a Caribbean seaside retreat for the occasion, the magical "fish story" begins. Powell encounters a mermaid named Lenore (Ann Blyth), and everyone including his wife believes her to be nothing more than a figment of his imagination -- A fantasy manifested out of anxiety over his lost youth.
Andrea King’s scenes had to be filmed inside a giant heated water tank, still located on the Universal back lot. Andrea and Ann Blyth were both accomplished swimmers, so they rose to the challenge of doing their own underwater stunts, including a complicated sequence where Andrea catfights with the jealous mermaid. She recalls that particular day with a laugh. They attempted to film without heat in the middle of winter. "The tank's water heater was malfunctioning, they told us. So we tried anyway for about half hour, but Annie and Andrea King just went numb! I think Annie got terribly sick after that."
In the spring of 1947 Annie had got her driving license, and she what’d to drive down scenic route down CA-243 abounds with mountain vistas and fire-following spring flowers. From Redlands, the CA-38 meanders northeast through an impressive rocky landscape that modulates into conifer territory as one climbs toward Big Bear Dubbed “Southern California’s only four-season resort,” Big Bear Lake nevertheless has an off-season in spring. After the skiers have departed and before the summer crowd has arrived, accommodations are plentiful and cheaper than at other times, although both weather and sightseeing are at their best in spring.
I have not done electronic books due to difficulty finding and loading them.
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
Adapted for radio by M.J. Reid from Dale Wasserman's stage version of Ken Kesey's novel.
In the late 1950's Kesey volunteered to be a subject in experiments with hallucinogenic drugs, and at the end of those experiments he began working the night shift in a psychiatric unit. As a result he wrote what's now regarded as one of the great postwar American novels, following the fortunes of the rebellious and psychopathic Randall Patrick McMurphy in his feud with the disciplinarian Nurse Ratched.

About the Author L.M. Montgomery
Lucy Maud Montgomery and publicly known as L.M. Montgomery, (30 November 1874–24 April 1942) was a Canadian author, best known for a series of novels beginning with Anne of Green Gables, published in 1908. Once published, Anne of Green Gables was an immediate success. The central character, Anne, an orphaned girl, made Montgomery famous in her lifetime and gave her an international following. The first novel was followed by a series of sequels with Anne as the central character.
The novels became the basis for the highly acclaimed 1985 CBC television miniseries, Anne of Green Gables and several other television movies and programs, including Road to Avonlea, which ran in Canada and the U.S. from 1990-1996.
L.M. Montgomery worked as a teacher in various island schools. As well, beginning in 1897, she began to have her short stories published in various magazines and newspapers. A prolific talent, Montgomery had over 100 stories published from 1897 to 1907 inclusive.
In 1898 Montgomery moved back to Cavendish to live with her widowed grandmother. For a short time in 1901 and 1902 she worked in Halifax for the newspapers Chronicle and Echo. She returned to live with and care for her grandmother in 1902. Montgomery was inspired to write her first books during this time on Prince Edward Island.
In 1908, Montgomery published her first book, Anne of Green Gables. Three years later, shortly after her grandmother's death, she married Ewan (found in Montgomery's notes and letters as "Ewan") Macdonald (1870 - 1943), a Presbyterian Minister, and moved to Ontario where he had taken the position of minister of St. Paul's Presbyterian Church, Leaskdale in present-day Uxbridge Township, also affiliated with the congregation in nearby Zephyr.
Leaskdale manse, home of Lucy Maud Montgomery from 1911 to 1926 Montgomery had three sons: Chester Cameron Macdonald (July 7, 1912–1964); Hugh Alexander Macdonald, who was stillborn August 13, 1914 and inspired the death of Anne Shirley's first child, Joyce, in Anne's House of Dreams; and Ewan Stuart Macdonald (October 7, 1915–1982).
Montgomery wrote her next eleven books from the Leaskdale manse. The structure was subsequently sold by the congregation and is now the Lucy Maud Montgomery Leaskdale Manse Museum. In 1926, the family moved in to the Norval Presbyterian Charge, in present-day Halton Hills, Ontario, where today the Lucy Maud Montgomery Memorial Garden can be seen from Highway 7.

Beatles fans and musicians gather to re-experience The Beatles' top-selling album. The two-album set was officially called THE BEATLES, but it became known forever after as The White Album. It was the top-selling of all The Beatles' albums and ranks #11 on the all-time album sales list.
The Beatles' White Album was a wildly diverse collection that included instant classics ("Back in the U.S.S.R", "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", "Dear Prudence", "Blackbird"), gentle ballads ("Mother Nature's Son", "I Will", "Julia"), raucous electric rock ("Helter Skelter", "Yer Blues") amusing ditties ("Honey Pie", "Savoy Truffle", "Rocky Raccoon"), and surprising experimental tracks ("Revolution #9"). The writing and performing styles of the four individual Beatles became distinct. Many Beatle fans and historians point to the White Album as the beginning of the break-up of the Beatles. In little over a year, the band would be dissolved.
What made Revolver one of the top rock albums of all time? Host Paul Ingles presents Everything Was Right: The Beatles' "Revolver". Ingles explores the landmark album's story and influence in depth, talking with historians, musicians, music critics, and fans and spotlighting each Revolver track (along with the 1966 single "Paperback Writer and Rain") The Beatles experimented with new sounds and subject matter on Revolver, pioneering psychedelic rock on some tracks and exhibiting extraordinary song-craft on others. Listeners learn about the sources for the tunes, the studio experiments The Beatles used to get their ground-breaking sounds, and the lasting impact of the collection on the pop/rock music scene.
