More amazing pics, of all sorts! I saw a bit about that Bodie place on one of Claudia's kids shows (a sort of 'Arthur C Clarke's World of the Unexplained' for under-12s). Isn't there supposed to be a well, or a mineshaft where you're supposed to be able to hear a moaning or somesuch?

Not exactly a double-entendre, but when I was in the states for a week (back in 1996) I was having breakfast in the lobby one morning, when a customer at the desk, discussing futons with the clerk, said "Fire futon torpedoes" - it didn't get a laugh from the clerk, although it made me smile!!

Sadly my attempts at taking pictures in Hollywood Boulevard a couple of years ago didn't quite work out- what you have to realise is that there are a couple of hundred people standing around looking down, so nobody's particularly aware of anybody else trying to take a photo. I was also down to the last couple of shots on my memory card so I gave up after somebody stuck their shoe in the picture I was trying to take of William Shatner's star.

Yeah it is a bit awkward to get a pic with the slabs being underfoot!
I saw the Shat star but preferred his joint slab. Just on slab etching technique I see Sean seems to be the only slabist to take his shoes off when doing his footprints
I had the Lee Majors star on this thread but Pip botched it :P
Am I unforgiving or what!
I've resorted this misdeed!

Can I ask what's really probably a very dumb question... What's the difference between a star and a 'signature in the concrete'? What I mean is, is it like getting a OBE and then getting a Knighthood, or what? And if so, which is better, a star or a signature?
-

Lots more people have stars than signatures in the pavement, and it's an entertainment industry thing rather than just films. There's only a certain amount of space in front of the Chinese Theatre anyway (although within the last five years they've basically taken the back off and built a multiplex behind the frontage), but the impressive thing is that the old ones stay there. The stars in the pavement also cover music and TV, so there are a lot for singers and bands. What's a little sad is that when the stars get broken in two (as they occasionally do) nobody seems to be doing anything about them, and I suspect that as new ones are put out the old ones are moved off to the end of Hollywood Boulevard. It was a bit of a shock to find Doris Day's (broken) star towards the very end when the woman's still alive.
