All referred to a very late seventies acclaimed story that was about leaving plight through another reality. It was brought by a melodramatic character that seemed to catch on with too many. It was expected then, and a big deal that nearly brought with it much more in a further continuance. Why not? But with a few sudden changes, it would never look the same. You see, later, there was this idea that had been touched on with fill-ins. Unfortunately, it was really not the kind of idea that you people were interested in. Too many alternate replacements. In the end, which was sooner than expected. It just didn't go over. *E*

In 1913, the Indian Head nickel (commonly known as the buffalo nickel) was introduced, replacing the Liberty Head design that had been used since 1883. These were the first official strikings of nickels in 1913; the United States Mint's official records show no Liberty Head nickels were produced that year. Yet five Liberty Head nickels dated 1913 came to the attention of the numismatic community in 1920. All five were in the possession of Samuel Brown, a coin collector who attended the American Numismatic Association's annual convention and displayed the coins there. Brown had previously placed an advertisement in The Numismatist in December 1919 seeking information on these coins and offering to pay $500 for each. Ostensibly, the coins had been purchased as a result of this offer. However, Brown had been a Mint employee in 1913, so many numismatic historians have concluded that he illegally struck the coins himself and then removed them from the Mint. Other numismatic authorities, however, note there are several methods by which the coins could have been legitimately produced. For instance, they may have been lawfully issued by the Mint's Medal Department 'for cabinet purposes,' or they could be trial pieces struck in late 1912 to test the following year's new coinage dies. In January 1924 Brown sold all five 1913 Liberty Head nickels. The intact lot passed through the hands of several other coin dealers before finally being purchased by Colonel E.H.R. Green. Green kept them in his collection until his death in 1936. When his estate was auctioned, all five of the 1913 Liberty Head nickels were purchased by two dealers, Eric P. Newman and B.G. Johnson. The dealers broke up the set for the first time.
The fictional theft of one of the 1913 Liberty Head nickels (known as the Olsen specimen) was the focal point of a December 1973 episode of the popular police drama Hawaii Five-0. It was titled 'The $100,000 Nickel' (which indeed was the value of the coin at the time). Rumors of the existence of a sixth 1913 Liberty Head nickel occasionaly circulate. If one did surface in perfect condition, numismatic experts estimate it could command $20 million at auction. You might want to check your piggy bank...

Born nearby Memphis, Tennessee, Alex came across blues influences while in childhood easily thanks to his home surroundings. In time, he used the influences he heard effectively with having a slew of personalities use portions of his own penned compositions for their own use. I could name many, including Kenny Rogers. Did you know he had a friendly relationship with James Garner, which is true. Both appeared in "The Long Summer of George Adams." Alex now spends his time focusing his working days for the church. Do any of you remember him? At least he was given credit for the pile of contributions he wrote easily. By the way, there was a second Alex Harvey, but he was from the northern part of Britain. I bet it confused some people back then as they both were in the same line of work.

Remember a few guys (6) who were from Ocala, Florida? Ultimately, they became a novelty at the tail-end of grooving '66. Yeah, yeah, that would of been December of that year. I recall it like it was yesterday, even though, it has been a very long period of time since.
What about you and your suburban life then? I'd be humming it and trying to mimic German badly. I guess back then, I was too busy on keeping my eyes on the sky? The funny thing about them, the recurring topic that was uplifed in the air was always with them. I'm talkin' of the pilot-dog. Yep, he did come up (get it?) seven more times with them. But hold on! Wait just one sec! True, they did branch out as well. If you are alike me, you got a real fondness for something so good - it makes you smile.

Some still considered it a big mess of needless complications, due to a long slog of details and perfection. Now, just thinking about it, it may even bring back a few thoughts about where you were at the time. Does it? The long-story is set with a struggling, unreasonable dispute that involved a cattle baron, with wandering immigrants from the roots of Europe's past; now settled in a remote part of the American West. So what happened to it? It was cited for the unbelievable implications it brought on. Ah, those were the compilations. Yeah, they were deplorable. One that definitely stood out, the fact of a quick-gained reputation for being a control freak, all added with the second fact, the costs were averaging a much larger amount than first anticipated. To be precise, it becoming best-known as front-page news for a longer time than it should of been. And an embarrassment of bad communications to all parties involved. How can you communicate to someone if there is a locked door involved? Just trying to balance it all was the most difficult part of it. At the same time, things really shifted for those involved behind the scenes - in a bad, bad way. As one of the most pressing conflicts about it was the survival for the financing involved. It didn't turn out well. Everything floundered as months went on. A real turning point had begun because of that. The entire system that was developed then dramatically changed to more controlling interventions from behind anxious doors. A manic mentality with a desperate sense to complete it had been hard to let go from their end. It was clear early on that, it was impossible to recover the shameful display of waste; all which contributed to the fussy onset of remaining true to a vision with different interpretations being suggested in taking it over with a backlash against the one man responsible. It eventually saw the projected light, but this was many months later. Though shown at just under 150 minutes, not the intended run of just over five slow-moving hours. However, much of the feedback regarding it has changed for the picture that was judged too fast then. Soon after, Michael's efforts were acknowledged as better than what was said about it then when the incomplete story was inappropriately played under much pressure. From then on, the entire spoken context of it had been transferred back intact for positive judgments by other means. I'm referring to the home market that was quickly moving in. This paved the way at proving that it was distinctly different without his hard work being incoherently marred-up by pressures. On the other end, unfortunately, all things were not good as a new element had begun by barring future developments for its company. It had runned itself way down. This due to the critical position that others were put in at that time because of the original shot-lived perpetrator. A real ridiculous mess of upsets. Do you know of another example that may of been inferior to what it really could of been? It hasn't really been compared to anything much since. Or has it? After some time, Michael continued to be restricted on further projects, with being handed a few second chances at.

What makes me tell you that I ain't no smartypants, or to even acknowledge that most of you are way smarter than me. Well, could it be a mystery? Or could it just be the embarrassment of knowing that I ain't even slightly any smarter as the lot of you. I feel so ashamed to tell you this now. Usually, I am just going through it all saying, Wow, you always present yourselves as being extremely smart. People, c'mon, you know me. I like that, right? I'm Mister Smiley.
You have nothing to worry about. I'm drinking concentrated wheat beer. An unsettling taste. I thought I'd make it last with a few ounces of water.
So forget about being so rigid, and every darn thing going on around you and tell me, is it you who can give the not so impossible answer? I thought it would be a sinch? Really? I don't think I'm being unrealistic here? Hey, by the way, there is no good reason for being worrisome either today. Why is that? The backyard garden awaits you this weekend. You do have the prettiest flowers. By the way, I could pass the hint of .... Prior to the year of 1973, there was ....... That's a nice clue to any mystery.
Are you paying attention to this, friend. You are my friend, right? COOL. I am waiting!
UPDATED:
ATTENTION! Looks to me that Carouselle has figured it out.
I think that is great! Really.

Enough of the whining, summer has arrived. No more reason to be disenchanted with whatever is bothering you. Go get yourself happy under the sunshine with a slap of feasibly strong sunscreen. Question, can you scarcely remember something that may of been absent from your thoughts for years? How about going to the mid-eighties, with speaking of North Wales or Britain from back then. Crossing the Atlantic was a good start for them, even if it was for a short-lived time. Tell me, when you think of Wales, do you really think of June, July, you know, summer? Well, they did with a kind of passion that could've caught on. Their approach really made a difference for some of you who understood them then. You see, they really ran on a different style in those years with a relatively different image. They may of even set-off a few of you with what they brought. Remember? They kinda stuck to what they did, and still continue in a different way to this day. There have been big changes from then and now. It just isn't the same. Back then, they had came at the right time to make an impression, an impression that interconnected with other recognised artistic people. That's just how it went. But not enough time to get themselves in firmly enough too last. Still, not too bad for a bunch of guys from that part of the breezy world.
Hey, why not check further below for something interesting, if you know what I mean, friends.

Frothy souffle textures revved up in shades of gold will get the attention of that Big Wheel in your life, according to this 1964 ad from the August Seventeen magazine. And it looks like the British Motor Corporation is willing to take that risk! And there is Ford Model Agency's model Colleen Corby in blue, wearing one of the vervy, vivid trio of sweaters to prove it! The guy double parked next to her doesn't stand a chance. Sigh. Such was the summer of '64.

Do you remember the exact time when.... There was much going on at that time. Why not beat me to the punch with a comment or three. After all, for phenomenal Peter, it was specifically a top-two for the Englishman. That was excellent, after comin' off such cranked-up engagements then. Definitely, he was just very hard to miss, especially considering the degree the man had come about with his noticeable good looks. Hard to ignore back then. Did you know, he was born in 1950 in London? True. In no matter of time, he had himself a career goin' with placing himself with the right people. This was all thanks to picking up a banjo-type ukulele at a very young age. In all likelihood, you have known about him since the Seventies. Soon after though, the productivity from him was kinda iffy, as he had made a few decisions that he would later regret. An almost shirtless shot? A critically panned film that should've been huge. Remember? He was having troubles juggling everything that came at him then. It could of exhausted anyone as he preferred being alone to work. Some may say that he experienced a downturn, but this was a false remark. Eventually he had the recognition he deserved in recent years. It was an additional past effort that could of been forgotten for years due to a hectic schedule he handled. Never to ignore past days of work, as it could be said here for himself. Yes, it had a lot to do with that fact in '07. He was finally given the recognition that was due with finishing up work, even though, strangely enough, it was an instrumental that he was very centered in. He may felt that it was an insult? No matter what impression you got then, he has been successful throughout the years since with performances.
