In The Community: The Great Northern Railroad Historical Society visited the Hockaday Museum of Art last night. We had a lot of things to show them in our Crown of the Continent exhibit, and they liked my video and Power Point presentation.

Many contacts were made and renewed.

Media Watch: Mickey Spillane, the first major pulp writer to make it big in the Post-WWII Paperback Revolution passed away. His Mike Hammer novels re-defined the Detective Genre. TCM recently showed Kiss Me Deadly (1955), a beautifully-photographed black and white B-Movie which owed as much to TV as to Film Noir, and presaged the cheapie horror-flicks that filled up Drive-In theaters all through the rest of that decade.
