You're showing your age, dude.

In order to explore and survey virgin cave in Texas these days, you have to be well-prepared for long, hard trips, and since everyone has waterproof cameras, it helps to be photogenic, too.

P.S. Last night on Turner Classic Movies I caught a few minutes of a forgettable B&W screwball comedy from 1937. "That actor looks vaguely familiar," I thought. I was surprised to discover that prior to Frederic March's turn in "Inherit the Wind (1960)" and "Death of a Salesman (1951)" he was a romantic lead in the movies of the '30's. I guess it's all relative.
