Your "Hi Mom" was a good touch.
My mom recently moved into assisted living from her house of 46 years. My sister has been showing her these Youtube videos, so I got to say "Hi, Mom" to her with this video.

I remember seeing the trailer for the X rated feature. Shamrock 4 expanded to 6 later on.

I recently had all of our old home movies digitized and came across footage I haven't seen in 35 years.

I left Johnston in 1970, so I'm sure most of the teachers and coaches were still there when this was filmed. I was thrilled when I came across it.
Thanks so much for this. I grew up on Wigton directly across the street from JJHS. In the 7th grade at the time. Now this is a seriously wound up tight principal.... Along with a few of the coaches in PE.

If you can get past the first 16 seconds me and my realitives, some nice shots of the miniature train and station.

Apparently drug users are bad dressers and have poor grooming habits.

I was happy to stumble across this footage at an archive site donated by KHOU. I do remember the song, but had forgotten Connie Stevens sang it with him. Here's a Dick Clark appearance.

Hard to believe this image is just shy of 50 years old.

Makes me wonder how many fantastic photos are sitting in boxes and drawers of people with no techno skills to share them with the world.

Someone posted on facebook. Great photo IMO.

I'm assuming you've searched the internet and Youtube for these?

Came across this in a 1970 UofH yearbook. Whenever I went to the Loew's or Metropolitan during the week, this man always seemed to be on the sidewalk.

Westbury is still the Rebels but without the Confederate iconography. I saw Madison being built in 1965 when I was 10, I lived across the bayou in Pamela Heights. I could also see the Astrodome being built if I stood on top of the man-made hill at Hobby Elementary. I also remember the Civil War Centennial 1961-65, especially the bubblegum cards depicting battles and other scenes,
I also remember the adults in the neighborhood used the N-word. My parents taught us not to use the word, but their neighborhood friends were the same people who used racial slurs. I remember the white and colored restrooms at my doctor's office in the medical center. Later in the Willow Meadows neighborhood we moved to, my best friend's dad was a Mississippian who would tear out pictures of black celebrities out of his TV Guide and other magazines before he would read them, and when "All in the Family" came out Archie Bunker was his hero. Some of my school friend's at Bellaire used racial slurs, some of who later became law enforcement. I don't like to think of myself as racist, but if I'm honest, I carry prejudices from my past that I try to identify and put aside.
Tana, I'm sorry if I offended you, and I believe you when you say the Rebels didn't carry hate in their heart, and you are right about considering the times, that's why I said "almost seems like a bad joke now."

Mine was an angry bird - Bellaire Cardinals, I think we're still rivals.
