June 12th is Anne Frank's birthday (Holland, 1929).

1981 flicks include Raiders of the Lost Ark, Chariots of Fire, Reds, On Golden Pond, Porky's, Arthur, Stripes.

Some of us were amused by the antics on Dallas, The Dukes of Hazzard, The Love Boat, Little House on the Prairie, Alice, Real People, Three's Company, Magnum P.I., Diff'rent Strokes. Some were not.
