I used to watch the Gong Show with my father, and re-runs of the newlywed game with my paternal grandmother. She was a game show fanatic. I cannot remember what channel I was watching but they had re-runs of the Gong Show. Wow.... looking back they were so bad they were hilarious. They couldn't have anything like that one now because someone would cry. | |||

Does anyone know if there is any substance to the reporting that he (Chuck Barris) was a hit man for the CIA? Serious question. | |||

Confessions of a Dangerous Mind was a very interesting movie based on that premise. Was it true? Who knows? | |||

If I don't post ever again after next week then you'll know my plane went down.
