I would give almost anything to see this lineup at the drive in.  Where is my time machine?

Not quite as good, but I saw KING KONG VS. GODZILLA at a Saturday matinee when I was about 6 years old . . .

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

     Saw this at the Strand Theater in Council Bluffs, during the '71 re-release....
