I do enjoy the story of the lady looking on with the frown in the background of Mary's hat tossing shot. That woman was interviewed a few years ago, and said that she was worried the young lady throwing her hat was going to be hit by traffic.

"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

Re: DEAD THREAD 2017: "This guy here is dead!"..."Cross him off, then!"
It wasn't 2017, but New Year's Eve 2016. My friend for more than 30 years, Dave Baker, succumbed to his third bout with cancer. A true blue Dallas Cowboy fan, he watched them rack up double digit wins, but didn't have to suffer through another loss to the Packers in the big game. He wasn't really a hockey fan, but he did learn to live with my score updates, echoing call of SCORE! or G-O-A-L!, and the raucous, music blaring, renditions of D-rah, E-rah-N-rah, VER!
