I think I’m catching up to her. Now THAT’S REALLY UNBELIEVABLE. I think the only time I went to the Vogue Theatre (just east of the Garmar) Samson and Delilah was showing (Victor Mature & Hedi Lamar). That theatre was so small I think most people have TV screens bigger than that movie screen.

Ahhh…the Garmar Theatre. Who can forget the sticky floor? I think the first movie I saw there was Cinderella-or was it Snow White? I’m giving away my age now. I remember seeing The Parent Trap with Haley Mills also. I think the last film I saw there was one of the Dirty Harry movies-Magnum Force. I used to think it was so cool to go to a Saturday matanee with the sun shinning then leave the theatre at night with all the lights blazing away. Who remembers Luigi’s Italian Restaurant catty-corner to the Garmar? It later became Mi Amigo’s Mexican Restaurant. It was the only Mexican restaurant I knew of that was owned and ran by a Chinese family. The food there was so gooooood!!! That’s gone now also along with the French Cafe. At least we still have Garduno’s (and the food is better than ever) and Tony’s Italian Deli. Too bad they tore down the Garmar and replaced it with, of all things, another crummy mini mall. Arn’t there enough of those around? Hey David – it’s your old bud Larry. How’s it going?
