Back To The 70's

[jettison_last]

tamang-tama yung handle mo . . . "sliderule" hehe. the 70s saw the end of the sliderule when calculators slowly replaced it. unang mga models malalaki and green led yung display. then towards the end of the 70s, panipisan and lcd na yung display. i remember one calc model parang "skyflakes' ang nipis niya.

 

sikat ang sinumang may gamit o dalang calculator noon, especially sa school.

This is white rook, over.

 

nadali mo, bro. THE GALLANT MEN tried to match COMBAT but the squad of Sgt. Saunders and Lt. Hanley (tks. to vergaman for that photo)just had a huge following among us kids then...halos makipag patayan pa ako sa Lucky 7 Club para sa t-shirt ni Vic Morrow.

 

Thrilla in Manila in 78 (?)... :cool:

thanks pare...sa mga Amazon ba wala nito?

 

Did a quick search yesterday and found Deep Throat. Malaman meron din nung iba.

Remember the assassination attempt on Imelda? It's on youtube.

Just search Imelda Marcos. You might also want to check out

her bloomberg interview. She allegedly pulled some strings to

yank it from airing. Some really strange statements.

Ako rin! padala ako ng padal kay Uncle Bob for pictures of Vic Morrow and Rick Jason. Good thing is Uncle Bob honors all letters pati mga classmates ko napadalhan. May autograph pa nga. Dinikit ko sa wall ng bedroom ko pero di ko na alam kung anong nangyari, di ko na makita. Di ko alam may t-shirt din pala. Batman naman yung sticker nun, na kailangan mo pang basain ng tubig sa likod para dumikit sa school bag ko

 

By the way, sana post naman kayo memorable moments nyo during SUMMER 70s.

Teka teka...alam ko yan....yan yung Gillette blade razor d ba?

Naging model pa dyan ay yung NBA player da galing dito kasama si Walt Frazier at Randy Smith...si Geoff Petrie yata yun

Tama ba Pinoy?

 

 

Di ko kasi natatandaan. Baka Gillette or DEP. You guys remember DEP?

 

Naalala ko pang mga ads sa Buhay Artista. Caronia - with its cheesy song, Vonnell, Jet detergent, RC cola, Apple Sidra, Kaminomoto o-ban, and Tancho Tique. Yung mga sinehan noon sa Manila, ipahid mo lang ang buhok mo sa sandalan, may libreng pomada.

 

Guess who the gentlemen in my avatar is. Kilala niyo iyan. Buhay pa. Siya ang boses ni Mermaid Man sa Sponge Bob.

Pare, halos sambahin natin yang si Vic Morrow. But I was quite dis-appointed when we saw him at the Airport wearing a Hawaian flower dotted polo shirt when many of us kids were expecting him to be wearing a soldier's outfit. But that did not stop us from seeing our idol at Uncle Bob's Lucky 7. Kupas na at umurong na sa kasusuot ang Combat shirt ko, i treasured it with my life...until finally I had to accept the fact that it has turned into a "basahan". :upside:

 

I always wished my folks would give me a toy machine gun Sgt. Saunders always carried with him. Because it was too expensive then, they bought me a cheap German Luger handgun toy instead.

ako, naalala ko pinaplantsa ko yung printed plastic bag ng chichirya sa sando ko para may print! heheheheh.........

Ernest Borgnine?

Ernest Borgnine?

 

 

Tumpak! A cigar for the gentleman. Favorite ko kasi ang McHale's Navy at Gilligan's island. One of the few shows we could watch on Saturday morning on Channel 7. Kasi wala naman tayong 24 hr cartoon channel. Isa pang naaalala kong palabas - "Training you to train your dog" hosted by Blanche Saunders.

 

Tapos naaalala ko rin yung wrestling on 7 - napaka-fake and just as fake as the wrestling we get nowadays.

 

You guys liked Rat Patrol? Outer limits? Twilight Zone? Space Family Robinson? (baklang bakla talaga si Dr. Smith), and the lame cartoon adaptation of the Three Stooges, plus the Funny Company and Beany and Cecil (Dishonest John). Yung Beany and Cecil, medyo intellectual pa ang mga one-liners niya -parodies. I remember one episode na sinabi ni Beany na papunta silang No- Bikini Atoll (Bikini Atoll was the test site for a nuke bomb).

I may be wrong on this, but I think that Space Family Robinson was better known on TV as Lost in Space. It's just that I remember that Dr. Smith belonged to Lost in Space. So did that wonderful robot. "It does not compute."

 

Speaking of Ernest Borgnine. He played a cynical cop in Irwin Allen's "The Poseidon Adventure," which also starred Gene Hackman, Red Buttons, Stella Stevens, Leslie Niesen, etc. I still haven't seen the remake, which puts in a twist to the capsizing of the Poseidon. The Poseidon Adventure was to the 70s what Titanic was to the 90s.

 

From Gene Hackman, the reverend: "I said I'll get you out, and by God I'm going to do it!"

Ang haba na ng thread na ito, but has anyone mentioned MASH?

 

Comedy Vietnam war series associated the popular song Suicide Is Painless.

 

Suicide is painless

It brings so many changes

But I can take or leave it

If I will

[jt2003]

"MASH" was mentioned and discussed in the sister thread, 36&Up. Hawkeye, Trapper John, Radar, etc. Thing is, MASH was never really big in our lovely PI. Unfortunately. I think it was because many Filipinos couldn't understand the humor. Perhaps the networks executives themselves couldn't.

I think the setting was North Korea, not Vietnam.

Korek ba ko?

Yes, it was Korea, but South Korea. One of the frequent target of jokes, especially by Hawkeye and Trapper John, was MacArthur. I remember one episode where the doctors, nurses and orderlies kept waiting for a North Korean pilot who would try to bomb them... but kept missing. So they made bets on where the next bomb would land. Hawkeye loved his martini. I think every episode had him drinking a martini.
