Great stuff. Back when TV was really funny and it took some talent to pull these bits off. Even though it was before my time I still love this show. I watched it in re-runs.

As they say...those were the days, my friend. No "reality TV", it was all creative and true acting. Don Adams and Barbara Feldon (man did I have a crush on her!! LOL!) were the epitome of comedy, talent, and sexual tension, all without being vulgar or obscene. It was a great show, and frankly I don't think the movie does it justice.

Sure was...Oh, and by the way - how did you get my phone number, it's an unlisted shoe! :icon_eek:


Operator: "What number are you calling?"
Smart: "I'm calling Control, Operator…"
Operator: "You have dialed incorrectly. Give me your name and address and your dime will be refunded."
Smart: "Operator, I'm calling from my shoe!"
Operator: "What is the number of your shoe?"
Smart: "It's an unlisted shoe, Operator!"

I remember having glass bottles of milk delivered to our front door and Wally brought us our bread in a bread delivery truck every Tuesday. That is really dating myself.

When I was in fourth grade, my teacher was telling us about what the future would bring. Said that in the future we would be able to see the person that we were taking to over the phone. The idea freaked me out because I thought there was no way I would want to answer the phone if I was in my pj's.

Girls had to wear dresses to school.

We had bomb scare fire drills where you had to curl up under your desk.

We played football 500 in our backyard.

Blackberry Curve 3300 could go five days on one charge, course it couldn't do much besides email and light web browsing. As much as the MAXX can do I am thoroughly impressed it can go two days on one charge. Like it has been said before this phone has set a new benchmark that all future phones will be compared to for the foreseeable future.

I totally agree. It's a game-changer.

It's so funny how sometimes things just fall into place. My cell phone number includes only 3 numbers (other than the area code)...8,6, & 0, so 86 as in Agent 86. The last 4 digits of my cell phone number as mentioned are 8000, as Motorola 8000X. I'm a moderator on a cell phone forum, and Maxwell Smart had many portable phones, most notable was the Shoe Phone.

My kids got Sega with my buddy, Sonic! I conquered my kids on that game. Could go through every level... took six hours from level 1 to the final level. No "save and come back for later" feature on that console. I was a closet junkie on that thing... put kids to bed and on to Sega!

Top Gun on Nintendo is still the bane of my existence, getting all the way through a mission just to crash on the landing.

I rocked on that game, I always fly low n fast and use the sparrow missiles and alot of machine gun fire. Landing isn't that hard lol. Just keep your nose pulled up that way if you need to climb you just accelerate, if you need to go lower, just tap the brakes ;)
