I believe it was cocaine. I also believe that he helps out the FBI, which
kinda lightened his sentence. 
BTW: He was attending Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, MI at the
time (I'm attending WMU right now) and was wearing a WMU sweatshirt on

I got a few requests for the Indiana Jones timeline I mentioned awhile
back so, I figured I would just post it.  I apologize for the terseness
of it.  I had never really intended it for other people to look at.  So, 
if there are any questions please ask away.  At least, it will give us 
IJ fans something to talk about other than when YIJC will come back (if
ever).
  
What is included are the movies, the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles 
episodes (by number in aired sequence, two hour pilot is #1), and the
Indiana Jones novels published by Bantam/Falcon.  I have not included
The Unicorn's Legacy or The Interior World books yet as I have not read
them yet.

While I am on the subject of the novels.  Does anyone know if Interior 
World is the last one?  I picked it up this week and immediately looked
for the preview in the back and, when it wasn't there, the coming soon
advertisement inside the front cover.  Neither were present.  So, is
Bantam/Falcon killing the series?  What's going on?

Chuck Connors, who played Lucas McCain in THE RIFLEMAN, died 
yesterday at the age of 71 from lung cancer.  I don't know how
many here on the network remember the show, but it was one
of the best things to ever hit televison.  It was about a 
single father, an ex-gunfighter who used a rifle instead of a 
revolver, who had given up gunfighting to raise his son on a 
small farm in New Mexico.  One of the fun things on the show was
when 6 foot five Connors would spin the Winchester rifle around his 
hand, one handed, in order to cock it.  When I was a kid, during 
the sixties, it use to make my eyes go wide to see him do that.
Nearly thirty years later, watching it in reruns, it still does.
The best thing about the show though was how real the characters were.
Chuck Connors played Lucas McCain as a very soft-spoken, hard-working,
gentle man who was tring to move his life beyond a history of violence.
And the relationship portrayed between McCain and his son Mark had a
chemistry unmatched by any television show since.  It's sad to know Mr. 
Connors is gone, but his work and his legacy live on beyond him.

That was Joan? I missed the credits, but I wondered. Didja notice the

I guess that's due to particularly poor timing on my computer's behalf.

it actually died Friday night, but it was temporarily fixed until Tuesday,

Anyways, all my DUFE opinions are on r.a.s.t., so I won't bore you guys

I'm not sure what the 3rd guy's name is... He has been a writer on SNL for
a long time...  I'm pretty sure he used to do Father Guido Sarducci (sp?)
and a few other characters.  And, speaking of Mike Myers.. where has he

Now that the "deed is done" and super couple :-) Brenda and Dylan
have FINALLY split up, how long do you think it will be before
the writers of the show get them back together again?  I was
hoping this would be a permanent break-up, but the trailers
I have been seeing for tonight's episode seem to indicate that
they believe they might have "made a mistake" in agreeing to
see other people.

Has anyone else seen previews that might indicate this?  (I
hope not!)

OK folks, correction time.  I had said earlier that RAVEN had been preempted
by the World Series on CBS, (ALL JAYS, ALL THE TIME!!!).  Well, sorry to inform
all you fans out there, but according to the latest entertainment news from
the Vancouver Sun entertainment section, RAVEN has been cancelled.  In fact, theentire Saturday night lineup on CBS was cancelled, replaced by movies until the
network can figure out what to do.

Of course, I'm not betting my house on this information, but these guys are 
usually pretty reliable......

Perfect Strangers was shelved after last season and is scheduled to be a 
mid-season replacement.  There was a full season aired with Jennifer and 
Larry married.  Now, the show airs in syndication so the show probably will 
return for one more try to get some more episodes available.

Is that spelled right?  That doesn't look right for Louise's surname.

DT|Ed Winter as Mr. Crawford [can't recall the character's first name, sigh]

Jim Crawford.   Was supposed to be a good joke on that one.   In "The 
Watertongate Break-In" episode (that was the real name, BTW.   Some of 
the real episode names are really funny), DeForest Kelley was supposed 
to guest star as one of the people in the room where they notice 
Waterton dead.   De was supposed to notice him first, look at him, and 
turn to Crawford and say "He's dead, Jim".
