You're welcome. My father went to Yale too and I think was touched by depression, but he would have never admitted it.

Suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please

In that movie The F Word was first used and after that the floodgates opened. I was sitting in the movie theater and couldn't believe it when I heard it. Just two years before that the strangulation hold the Hays Code, instituted by the Catholic Church prohibiting profanity in movies, was finally lifted. The Hays Code also dictated that anytime someone committed a crime in the movie they had to be punished before the movie was over. Just like in real life. This shows the extreme power the Catholic church had in the thirties forties and fifties in the United States. The Vatican threatened the movie industry that if they did not follow strictly the Hays Code the Catholics would be told to boycott their movies. And they would do it. How times have changed, Catholics very seldom do what they are told now by the church.

Gilley's - Billed as World's Largest Honkey-Tonk (featured in the Movie Urban Cowboy)

Quote:

The club was almost immediately successful, and it quickly grew in popularity. The huge honky-tonk drew crowds of people all through the week soon after the opening. Every night it filled its 6,000-person capacity. People enjoyed its showers for truckers, a shooting gallery, pool tables, and punching bags. Of course, it has its legendary rodeo arena with mechanical bulls and a dance floor big enough for thousands.

There is a Gilley's country bar at the Treasure Island here in Vegas. I tried the mechanical bull there and didn't last long. That is about all I can say about Mickey.
