Saturday Night Doodles
Another fun Saturday night has come and gone at here at Rancho Ramirez. Normally it begins with hotdogs, popcorn and ice cream as we watch Batman but on this evening we tuned in a little earlier to watch Hogan's Heroes. Start things off with a laugh, I say!
Dinner was especially delicious because Pammy decided we should have homemade chile on our "dogs" and boy was it yummy! Chili dogs, chili dogs, chili dogs. Oh, how I love chili dogs. When I was a kid you could get a chili dog at most any theater in town. In later years they weren't as common but when I moved to San Antonio they still served them at the Mission Drive In Theater. And my kids love chili dogs. That's what I'm talkin' about!
We wrapped up our evening with our favorite horror movie host with the most: Svengoolie, who was featuring the 1950's classic: "The Mole People", starring John Agar (Sands of Iwo Jima, Tarantula, Revenge of the Creature), Cynthia Patrick and Hugh Beaumont( Leave It to Beaver). Alan Napier, t.v.'s Alfred the butler from the 1960's campy version of Batman, played Elinu, the high priest of the subterranean,albino,Sumerians. The film was produced by William Alland who also produced The Creature from the Black Lagoon, It Came from Outer Space and This Island Earth among others. My favorite line of the movie: "Last night we had cave rat for dinner." Wonderful!
All in all it was a great family night. Next week's Svengoolie will be showing "Dr. Cyclops". We can't wait.
