I saw a commercial on TV last night advertising a new cell phone, I didn't catch the name of the phone, but the commercial showed a clip from The Honeymooners as well as I Love Lucy. The Honeymooners clip was of Ralph answering the house phone in "Dial J For Janitor." I must admit, it was pretty cool to see Jackie being remembered like that, especially since yesterday was his birthday. If I figure out the name of the phone, I'll be sure to let you guys know so you can look out for the commercial.

Yeah I haven't had any luck catching it again since the other night...I'll try and keep my eyes open though. The whole commercial was basically just scenes taken from different shows and movies over the years of people answering the phone, I believe the last clip was of Dustin Hoffman answering the phone in Meet The Fockers.

...and it would have been funnier if they used the moment where "Ralph" answers the phone, and that damn buzzer keeps going, and Jackie hits the wall to make it "stop"!

:lol:

Thanks now I know what cell commercials to pay attention to! I agree that would have been funny if they would have used that clip.

Apple, that's it! Was it the BlackBerry Pearl?

Hi Ceal. Welcome back. Long time no hear. I wonder what ever happened to Frank Gannuchi?

I was wondering that myself, he was probably the most active poster on the old board. If he were to come here, I'm sure we could get the mods to make a sticky thread for him so he could post his quotes every day in the same thread. I'd also like to hear from some of the older members like ZXMan.

I have his email address and just emailed him. I'm not sure if it's still the same. We'll see.

Hey Bill, Greg, awaywego,

Thanks for the reply.. yes the site was down for a while. I was in the middle of switching hosts and I had gotten sick and so did my husband so I was unable to find the time to re upload the site. But I'm happy to say that all is well.. and as you can see I did reopen the site.

I plan on visiting more often. sorry to hear Johns board is gone, but like you said this is a great board as well, it always has been. You guys are the greatest and very knowledgable so I'm happy to have found you again.

as for Gannooch, he is still a very active member of my you're a riot yahoo group, posting quotes, skits etc.. I will let him know you all are on this board and that you were asking for him etc..

as for ZXman, I have not heard from him is years, he was a very nice guy as well..

I will check out the older posts to catch up..

Thanks again

^^Are any other former members of John's board active in your Yahoo group? It'd be great to have some more familiar faces around here, as well as some new ones of course. I think I tried signing up for your group a while back, but I forgot my user name and password so I never really got a chance to participate. Oh well, at least we got you over here! :wave:
I posted the link to this board in my post to gannooch at my group and also mention that all the members should check it out and join!!

I can mention it on my website too.. I did lose alot of visitors to my site since it was down for so long but who knows maybe some of the old posters of H.net may come across it again so I will let anyone who visits know that you are all over here posting now. if that is ok with you guys???

yes, I think I remember you joining a while back, bill..

I wish I could get in contact with John over at HM.net, he still has a link to my old site on his page as well. Speaking of which, does anyone know why he doesn't update anymore?

Try contacting Ben (Benno123). He may know John K's email address.

Ok Bill, I'll remove your old site. Actually, I should check all the links on the page to make sure they are current!
