Random Memorial for Monday 9/12/11

Gone but not forgotten: my occasional encounters with Ma and Pa Kettle.

It took catching up on an episode of AMC's amazing Breaking Bad to remind me (the reference was in a scene of a stakeout of an RV that, well, broke bad) that I was once fond of the old black and white Ma and Pa Kettle movies that aired on local weekend television when I was young.

Whether you both were Going to Town, At the Fair, In the Ozarks or on Old McDonald's Farm -- Phoebe and Franklin Kettle, you are missed.

FIRST, TO CITE THE EPISODE:
