"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell."
The email that this came with claimed that this is the first known
35mm film and that it was taken four days before the great earthquake.
I wasn't able to verify that but it is a fascinating film
nevertheless. I keep expecting to see Laural and Hardy go by. GrinCelt
I've now watched this four times, and each time I'm reminded of something my pappy used to tell me:
"Yes, government can protect you against failure, but at the cost of allowing you to succeed."
I'm not questioning the need for some order in our lives, but these people are enjoying freedom I yearn for. I guess it's inevitable on this plane of existence.
So much horse manure was deposited in the streets of San Francisco that roses would spontaneously sprout from the asphalt even for years after the quake. The problem wasn't completely eliminated till much later with the arrival of the hippies and the gay pride brigades. Deposits of urine, ejaculate, cooties,vomit,and scumbag flakes, finally killed off the rose sprouts. No new growth has been seen in more than four decades.
I'm amazed nobody got run over during the filming.
ReplyDeleteIt's like organized chaos and absolutely hypnotic with that music. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow, Back in the day when people looked out for themselves w/o government intervention to point out what is dangerous. duh.
ReplyDeleteDid everyone have the right of way? Love the film and the music was perfect. What a neat glimpse of our history. Wish we still rode horses to work.
ReplyDeleteAnyone know what the background music is?

ReplyDeleteThat's where the name of the LA Dodgers comes from. Short for "Trolley Dodgers." Fact.
ReplyDeleteTuring word: "amsch". That's what you yell when a trolley almost gets you.
