admin reacted to James Thomas Rook Jr. in During the war, Argentinian President Juan Peron, pictured with his wife Eva in Buenos Aires
The Vatican 1933 Concordat, signed July 20, 1933 by Cardinal Pacelli, Vatican Secretary of State (Papel Nuncio), was a "Holy Covenant" between the Vatican and the Third Reich, stipulating that in Germany and German controlled lands, the Catholic Church would be the ONLY officially approved Church ... and the Nazi Party would be the ONLY official political party of German Catholics.
Before the Church could appoint any clergy, they had to be vetted and approved by the Nazi Party.
Later, during WWII, Cardinal Pacelli became Pope Pius XII and was referred to as "Hitler's Pope".
During the times of the Vietnam war, a NY play about this was produced called "The Deputy", which sparked rioting and protests.
In the mutual quest to control the world, The "Universal" wannabe Catholic Church "bet on the wrong horse"

admin reacted to James Thomas Rook Jr. in 1950’s era drive-in movie theatre
It was like the "B" side of 45 RPM records.
Usually, with few exceptions, the "B" side was just filler.
.... and occasionally, drive-ins would have "movies 'till dawn", and at dawn, they would have to send someone around to charge batteries, jump start cars, and wake people up.
By the way ... you might think that California would have the most Drive-In Theatres ... but actually, 30 years ago, it was Ohio. I have been to a Drive-In North of Cincinnati, with snow on the ground.
Here in the Charlotte area there are several .... a new one ... very modern .. with 23 very nice restrooms, a two story projection booth between two screens opposite each other, and a campground ... The "Hounds" Drive-In.

I can tell you from first hand knowledge that after the first show, and even before ... no one cared. The car windows were steamed up so much no one could see out, anyway.
The move "Plan 9 from Outer Space", arguably the WORST "Scifi" movie ever made had only two criteria ... it had to be "so long", and be produced for $70,000, as no one was going to watch it, anyway.

Google "Vatican Rat Line".
The Vatican supplied the SS and other Nazi war criminals with Vatican Passports for the rough equivalent of $15,000 each.

During the war, Argentinian President Juan Peron, pictured with his wife Eva in Buenos Aires in 1950, sold 10,000 blank Argentine passports to ODESSA - the organisation set up to protect former SS men in the event of defeat.

I take vitamin and mineral supplements, and probiotics, not so I can live longer ... but that when mourners (if any ...) file by my cardboard box before I am cremated, for one last look, or to stick a pin in me to make sure this is not a prank, can look down and say in all earnestness .... "Yeah ... he's dead .. but doesn't he look terrific ?"

Oh geez... I remember these....and notice no seat belts?
Safety first!
Your child will be safely seated while he and the seat fly through the windshield.
How did we ever survive those decades? LOL
