      "The hand is quicker than the eye".  Seeing this frame-by-frame tells the tale. There are numerous versions of "Lamb Chop". Some do Not have a body. No legs or arms.

Two Screen grabs @29:25 with highlighted FLOWERS!




And same again with a little less brightness.

JS-

I know nothing abut Hollywood economics. I guess it is cheaper to build a set than to film in front of the TSBD.

Seems odd.

Just what we need, or at least I do ...

A new movie about the JFKA, "November 1963," is scheduled for release later this year. It was made with heavy involvement by the Giancana family and tells the story from the perspective of Sam Giancana. The big star is John Travolta, who plays Johnny Roselli. Actors play Ruby and patsy Oswald, but the list of the cast suggests no one plays JFK or Jackie so perhaps it's all behind-the-scenes stuff. It does, of course, purport to tell the "real story" of the JFKA.

Prop TSBD doorway.

Is it more appropriate to give the First Lady some beautiful flowers or a hand puppet toy? Now I can imagine some exceptions like a cute Koala in Australia.

To me, the size and shape fits flowers and besides there's nothing that looks like legs or arms.

Like he said " I'm just a Patsy " !

"They've taken me in because of the fact that I lived in the Soviet Union. I'm just a patsy".

Of course we should take his word on that. What reason would he have to lie?

Given how dreadful John Travolta was in the movie about John Gotti, I'm not exactly looking forward to him playing another mobster. He was much better playing a hit man in Pulp Fiction.

Give it up, Andrew. It doesn't work. Never did. Never will. 'nuff said.

The 1960s was the era of three names or three-letter initials or combos. At least in media dramatizations.

Lee Harvey Oswald. JFK, LBJ. James Earl Ray. Martin Luther King. William "King" Harvey. E. Howard Hunt. J. Edgar Hoover. JD Tippit. RFK. David Atlee Phillips. I am sure many more, that's off the top of my head.

James JESUS Angleton!

I wonder how many of these people used three names in everyday life.

If someone you disliked didn't like his or her middle name, would you go out of your way to use it just to "make a statement"?

Regardless, when's the last time you said, "Richard McGarrah Helms"?
