"Demolition Man" is coming true! Sort of...

IMDB tells me: "MTV Networks' TVLand cable channel may be the place to watch classic television shows, but the channel announced Thursday that it has now included on its website, www.TVLand.com, nearly a thousand old movie trailers produced from the '50s to the '90s..."

The next step is logical: Someone, somewhere will come up with the idea that we need a website for classic TV commercials, then we'll have a radio station dedicated to the jingles and then, whammo, "Be Well."

I'm just joking of course. In fact, I'm happy that there will be a place to view old trailers. I wish there was a place to view old TV shows that were cancelled ahead of their time and will never see a DVD set, like "Sword of Justice" and other campy fare. Why not... it makes me happy.

Enhance your calm, be well.

Charlton Heston 1924 - 2008

Charlton Heston died tonight at his home in Beverly Hills.

I'd like to say something pithy or come up with a great "In Memorium" for this man who was always a straight shooter and a great legend in the business but I just don't have the words.

Tinseltown is a lot less sparkly tonight.
