   Great name: Doris, the Saurus! She appears to have grown a bit during her trip through time. Good thing Mr. Am is on hand to deal with his pet.

   Nice touch there from the old cliff hanger “The Phantom Empire”.
   In the old movie house serial it was “Radio Ranch”.

   What a wonderfully surreal blend of drama and silliness! I LOVE it!! Many thanks to Maeder and Slampyak. I can hardly wait to see how the other story lines get tied in.

   (dkram: thanks for explaining the origin of the “Broadcast Ranch” name. I vaguely remember cowboy serials (note the spelling) from my youth because it was Buck Rogers and especially Flash Gordon who had my allegiance.)

    Please, people, I already have a bit of a hangover. “Doris, the Saurus” is just a little bit tooooo much.

    I reiterate: did anybody NOT see this coming?

    jtpozenel said, 3 months ago

    I’m sure that Rod Serling would have approved.

    Hey TheGiantBrain:

    Get over it. It’s just a comic strip. Try enjoying your life a little more.

    Gene Author starred in a movie named “Radio Ranch.”

    Here’s the Amazon link to the movie: http://www.amazon.com/Radio-Ranch/dp/B001AD54RK

    From the web page:

    (The) story line and plot, This was Gene Autry’s first starring role — Autry plays a singing cowboy named Gene Autry, who runs Radio Ranch, a dude ranch from which he makes a daily live radio broadcast — Gene has two kid sidekicks, Frankie Darro and Betsy King Ross, who lead a club, the “Junior Thunder Riders,” in which the kids play at being armored knights of an unknown civilization, the mysterious Thunder Riders — The kids, dressing up in capes and water bucket helmets, play at riding “to the rescue!” — A chance to be real heroes occurs when Betsy, Frankie and Gene are kidnapped by the real Thunder Riders, from the super scientific underground empire of Murania, complete with towering skyscrapers, robots, ray guns, elevators that extend miles from the surface, and an icy, evil blonde Queen, Tika — On the surface, a group of crooks plan to invade Murania and seize its mineral wealth, while in Murania, a group of revolutionaries plot to overthrow Queen Tika — “The Phantom Empire” wss released in 1940 as a full feature, “Men With Steel Faces”, distributed by Times Pictures, and “Radio Ranch”, distributed by Nat Levine and carrying the now defunct Mascot label - - - - - - some Autry fun facts, Gene always preferred his sponsor’s product, Wrigley’s Doublemint Gum, to smoking

    By the way, Will Rogers discovered Gene Autry when Autry was working as a telegraph operator for a railroad in south central Oklahoma.

    When I was a young boy, I used to listen to Gene Autry’s weekly show on CBS Radio, Gene Autry’s Melody Ranch.

    I just remembered a joke that his radio sidekick, Smiley Burnette, told on one program.

    He said that he bought some birch bark britches and when he was going to light a cigarette, he struck a match of the set of his pants.

    A termite stuck his head out down there and said, “No smoking in the lower balcony.”

    They have a Gene Autry, Roy Rogers and other Cowboy music festival going on here at My Old Kentucky Home in Bardstown. I havent been yet, but they’ve got a seat for me.

    I love the dinosaur. If the authors read this, thanks guys! I love it. Annie is one of the best because of you.

    new mexico has a low amount of vegitation. expect this dinosaur to cross to the dark side and start eating cowboys.

    unfortuanltly i think the dinosaur will be mellowed down by the cowboys singing, like an indian with a cobra playing that flute thing.

    Let’s see: first you make reference to “Doctor Who” with the TARDIS console, then REH, now “Twilight Zone.” What next???

    mcbragg said, 3 months ago

    I would just like to point out with regards to the TARDIS console that that wizard is a dead ringer for William Hartnell the first Doctor

    jtpozenel, I had the same thought. I was half expecting for Serling to show up and be confronted by Annie and crew.

    As for musical cowboys, the most famous person i knew (and not just met) was local celebrity, Fred Kirby. Uncle Fred was a close family friend from when my mom and uncle where little. We miss you Fred.
