Three months later in February of '33, Zangara would make his shot, and 20 days later, Anton Cermak would die of the gunshot wound. Zangara claimed to be a Bolshevik out to kill all capitalists, but many believe it was a direct retaliatory hit. He was put to death in Dade County, Florida, later that year. Roosevelt himself would drive Cermak to the hospital, where Cermak would say "I’m glad it was me, not you" - the line that would be carved into Cermak's tomb. 22nd Street in Chicago would be renamed Cermak Road in his honor. |

Another kinda crazy movie is "The Blues Brothers" and Belushi always liked Chicago. Elwood took off from the police; so Belushi told him; the police will know where we went cause they've got your address on the License ; so they'll send me back to the slammer ! No they don't said Elwood, cause I put the address of Wrigley Field on my license ; 1060 West Addison Street ! Ha ! |

A couple of more good movies
A pretty good comedy with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan ( who plays three different girls ! ) is "Joe versus the Volcano" A rich guy has to placate the natives in an Island who want somebody to placate their volcano god. so he gets a doctor to tell Hanks he has an incurable brain disease and only has a month to live ! So the rich guy will give him unlimited credit cards if he will jump into the volcano ! Ha ! A sales man sells Joe Four large Steamer Trunks. These Trunks will float; so if your ship goes down like the Titanic, you can climb onto them ! They only cost $25,000 ( or some exhorbitant fee ) I'll take Four of them says Joe ! The salesman says May you Live 10,000 Years !
Dan Hedaya plays Joe's boss in a dead end job in a factory ! "I Know he can get the job; But can he do the Job ? I'm not arguing that with you ! I Know he can get the Job, But can he do the Job ! " Ha ! Another good comedy is "Clueless" with Alicia Silverstone as Cher ! I always wanted to propose marriage to her , too ! But she turned Vegan and I just got to have Double Cheeseburgers or Whoppers occasionally; so it wouldn't have worked out ! Ha ! Dan Heydaya plays Cher's father in this one, too ! Or another movie is Breathless with Richard Gere and the reason to see it is Valerie Kaprisky ! I think this is actually a remake of a French film ! One wonders why are all the great movies made in France first and then remade into american ? Or does it just seem that way ? anyway the police question Valerie; where is the guy ? I don't know him. We know you know him and he's wanted ! Don't L.I.E. to the L.A.P.D. ! Last edited by Marshal Davout; 09-18-2024 at 07:18 PM.. |
