         Good Morning Everyone!
                         1968 Mustang bullitt

Bullitt is a 1968 American thriller film directed by Peter Yates and produced by Philip D'Antoni. It stars Steve McQueen, Robert Vaughn, and Jacqueline Bisset. The screenplay by Alan R. Trustman and Harry Kleiner was based on the 1963 novel, Mute Witness, by Robert L. Fish, writing under the pseudonym Robert L. Pike.

Thought I'd start out here today.  Sucks News features the top 10 "car chase scenes" ever produced.  I'm sure most of you are familiar with "this" chase scene.  If not, you might want to rent the movie.  It's a good one!!!  (Available on Amazon Prime streaming for those of you who do that)

Nothing exciting going on here is Florida.  Just the same boring 80's day after day.  Of course I can see the great white north is still . . . well . . .  white!  Why don't you take a break and come down for a visit!  It would do you good.  

The Turntable features Elvis - "Don't"  Backed by "Royal Philharmonic Orchestra" (really cool) - and - your favorite "It's all in the Game".  On The flipSide it all Beach Boys.  Skip is back on Skip's Corner with story about an encounter with an Eagle that had washed up on an Alaskan beach many years ago and was literally freezing to death. I'm guessing Skip was late 20's / early 30's at the time.  He saved that Eagles life!  . . .  Finally, Strap in for Sucks News - today featuring the top 10 chase scenes ever filmed.  Really!  

Well, that's a wrap!  
​Till Next week / be safe and I'll see you on the Turntable!

"Don't" is a song performed by Elvis Presley, which was released in 1958. Written and produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, it was Presley's eleventh number-one hit in the United States. "Don't" also peaked at number four on the R&B charts.[2] Billboard ranked it as the No. 3 song for 1958.[3]
"All I Have to Do Is Dream" is a popular song made famous by the Everly Brothers, written by Boudleaux Bryant of the husband and wife songwriting team Felice and Boudleaux Bryant,[2] and published in 1958. The song is ranked No. 141 on the Rolling Stone magazine's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song is in AABA form.[3]​

​"It's All in the Game" was a 1958 hit for Tommy Edwards. Carl Sigman composed the lyrics in 1951 to a wordless 1911 composition titled "Melody in A Major," written by Charles G. Dawes, later Vice President of the United States under Calvin Coolidge. It is the only No. 1 single in the U.S. to have been co-written by a U.S. Vice President[1] or a Nobel Peace Prize laureate.
"To Know Him Is to Love Him" is a song written by Phil Spector, inspired by words on his father's tombstone, "To Know Him Was To Love Him."[3] It was first recorded by the only vocal group of which he was a member,[2]the Teddy Bears. Their recording spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in 1958,[4]

Glad you liked it Dale. I was a bit surprised you didn't hear it in HS. You must be back from South Africa? Looking forward to the next issue of Gulliver!
