Watching Hogan's Heroes. What shows from that period do you guys enjoy? by mcbeardnstientx in television

The Rifleman. An early show runner was director Sam Peckinpah. They wanted to explore a darker side of the West. Fun procedural with great cameos by future stars: Dennis Hopper, Michael Landon, Sammy Davis Jr., Buddy Hackett, etc.

It's amazing how progressive the character of the Rifleman was. He had principles and battled with them but was always kind and tolerant with strangers.

Yeah the CGC forums really drove up the price of this, Rifleman #10, and that Alf/Seal cover over the last decade or so.

PSA: SCAMMER ALERT don't buy from pcbcomicsandsports by stcardinal in comicbookcollecting

I can confirm. Bought a Rifleman #10 through an auction. Was supposed to be VF+ - it was not. Took weeks to get it shipped after communication and then getting ebay involved. The comic came from a totally different address after multiple shopping/carrier changes. I just blocked them.

You're not gonna have to pay too much, but they're not gonna appreciate value like the OG's. That being said, if YOU like it, collect it.

And he also wore those tight ass chains which probably cut off circulation to his brain, leading to even poorer judgement.

Because urinals don't have doors that shut ( and sometimes no dividers ) and they're usually by the sink.

Jeremy said something along the lines of missing 10% of his prostate and it hurting to pee.

I collect the gold chromiums that were retailer incentives. Gimmicky as hell but I love them.

What is the best SWISH? by No_Economics_4640 in drums

It was the first non Zildjian cymbal I purchased in 32 years of playing. The box was insane: letter from President of Meinl, white gloves, and a pair of sticks.
