I DID see “The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming" in 1966
and recognized his comic brilliance. Just one year later he did a 180
and played a psychotic killer SO brilliantly I was convinced he WAS
that person in real life!

Over the next few years I watched everything he did on film (I sadly

he always shone, and one could see what attracted him to each role.

It wasn't until 1979 that he found his masterpiece. He co-starred in
“The In-Laws” and while Peter Falk and Richard Libertini had far
flashier roles, Mr. Arkin held his own against them, most especially
in the immortal "flies with beaks" dinner scene (see
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqKadJiNZ4s [1]).

He continued acting for decades, and gave some really fine
performances in movies like “Glengarry Glen Ross” and “Little

2023-06-30 Thread Tom Martin

 Hi Mopo
so I am reminiscing a lot lately is the smoke clouds loom over my city 
it is been some of the weirdest weather I've seen in my entire life and 
the last few years since the pandemic have outweighed anything Stephen 
King could write about
I've come to the conclusion that only answer to about anything 
regardless of your political views religious views or business news is 
we have to have forgiveness because in the big picture nothing else 
matters I decided that I needed to forgive my son and I told him to pray


Our ego makes us want to hold onto material things we think we can own 
property whether it be intellectual physical real estate automobiles and 
we are going to be celebrating the independence of our United States 
from Great Britain the funny thing is we are owned by many European and 
Asian countries when you look at the source of who owns huge 
conglomerate companies in the United States



Look I don't have it all figured out at all the only thing I've been 
able to come up with is that we need to forgive and love everybody from 
our parents to our siblings to our neighbors and friends I get calls 
from people who are used to do business with one man was a sales agent 
for box office magazine the trade magazine for the motion picture of the 
street he's in his 80s now and he said after he left the company all the 
friends he thought he had stopped contacting him and he seemed very sad 
and disgruntled by society it appears he has many friends when he could 
do things for them in the industry but when he lost position nobody 
wanted to know him any longer that made me really sad
 I did several projects for box office is the used my products for 
promotional use of the magazine at trade shows like show east and show 
west major entertainment trade shows I made directors megaphone iMovie 
world clock and small desk clock and some clapper boards for box office
A lady just sent me an email asking me about a Coca-Cola movie reel time 
clock I made for the Coca-Cola company I told her those words custom 
jobs made for them but sometimes you can find them on eBay where people 
resold clocks I made years
I did Clocks for Walt Disney. Paramount pictures warner brothers, NBC, 
and I bought the license for Ghostbusters part two in 1989
We also sold the club generic with no face on it as we used to put the 
logos of the companies on the clock face


 anyways it was a lot of fun when people would buy the products and I 
made a lot of friends that worked in the studios however many of them 
are now retired or have passed away so what did I learn over 46 years in 
the entertainment industry?


Help as many people as you can forgive everybody when they do you wrong 
and pray that they all get peace and love is our health Moorefield as we 
get older money can dry up end it may be the last week you see your 
family or loved ones or friend all any of us can do is try our best
Because in the end it was not about impressing them as Mother Teresa 
Said

It's about you and God

wish you all a good holiday with friends and family

We at eMoviePoster.com have three great current sets of auctions
(containing 3,449 auctions in all!) that close starting in just 4 days
on Tuesday July 4th, Thursday Tuesday July 6th, and Sunday Tuesday
July 9th (in our "every four week auctions)!

These auctions contain so many varied items that at least some of them
are likely to be of great interest to virtually EVERY collector! If
you haven't already checked these out thoroughly, PLEASE don't wait
any longer to do so, because you will need a fair amount of time to
look over 3,449 auctions!

What's in these three sets of auctions?

Our current Tuesday auctions ending July 4th at
http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/13.html [1] contain 1,418 folded
U.S. & non-U.S. posters, cool comic books, lobby cards, 8x10 stills,
and SO MUCH more that it will take you hours just to make a quick run
through solely these Tuesday auctions!

Our current Thursday auctions ending July 6th at
http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/14.html [2] contain 1,000 rolled
posters (U.S. non-U.S. art prints, and NON-movie posters). This has a
fabulous selection of posters of every kind, spread pretty evenly from
the 1950s to the present, with 103 from before 1950!

Our current Sunday auctions ending July 9th at
http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/15.html [3] contain 1,038 bulk
lots with 35,412 items in all. This is like the contents of a store
being auctioned off, truly with NO reserves! There WILL be sensational
buys made and quite a few will sell for BELOW wholesale prices!

Or (for the next four full days, until the Tuesday auctions start to
close) view ALL of the 3,449 current auctions in a single gallery at
http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/all.html [4], especially valuable
if you want to search ALL of these auctions at once for a star, genre,
size or whatever!

We add a similar selection every four weeks (but the auctions run for
3 weeks) and you can wait SIXTEEN full weeks to have your purchases
shipped, which saves you a fortune on combined shipping.

Note that ALL these items started at $1 (some will end there) and ALL
have NO reserve (or awful "buyers premiums). Given that the Tuesday
auctions end on the American 4th of July holiday, Isn't it time YOU
"declared independence" from auctions that don't treat you the way you
deserve to be treated?

I could easily write a great deal more about how many excellent items
there are in all three sets of auctions and how low the current bid
prices are, but I would much rather you simply see for yourself at the
above links!

What makes eMoviePoster.com auctions different from ALL other auctions
ANYWHERE in the world? I am glad you asked!
