The Silver State Chronicles

Happy 4th of July Weekend!

Sound insights from Mr. Jack Webb

You’re wrong, Barry!

The Silver State Chronicles is shoing solidarity with the fine people of Hounduras as world opinion is against them, including The Excuse-Maker-In-Chief, Barry Obama.  Shame on you, Barry!

So as a gesture of solidarity, here’s a picture of Miss Honduras 2008!  We’re with you, Amigos!

Obama gets the big decisions wrong

From way back in 1977

“How many apartment buildings can you own?”

Who is Paul Christy?

“A Wrestler.  Magician.  Hypnotist.  Alright?”

It’s amazing that this incoherent, rambling interview ever made it on to WWF television, but it did.   Enjoy Mr Christy’s first, and last, WWF interview, on May 21, 1986.

Mr. Malden shall be deeply missed

RIP Karl Malden

1912-2009

USA Today reports…

Actor Karl Malden dies at 97

The family of Karl Malden says the actor who won an Oscar for his role in A Streetcar Named Desire has died at age 97.

Malden’s family informed the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences of his death on Wednesday. Malden served as the academy’s president from 1989-92.

He made his screen debut in the 1940 movie They Knew What They Wanted, and was praised for his role as Mitch in the 1951 classic A Streetcar Named Desire.

His greatest fame came as Detective Mike Stone in the 1970s TV series The Streets of San Francisco, in which he co-starred with Michael Douglas.

Malden also was a pitchman for American Express in a series of commercials airing over 21 years.

Schoolhouse Rock, 2009 Style!
