Owlpen Manor (1450-1616) is a Tudor manor house half a mile east of Uley, with minor early eighteenth century alterations. It was rescued by the arts and crafts architect Norman Jewson in the 1920s after a century of neglect. With a thousand years of history, there is a rare collection of painted cloths as well as various period outbuildings including a court house, tithe barn and grist mill.

Richard Collier and his many adventures

Richard Collier was born in Dallas Texas to a family of then four including his older brother, his older sister, and his two parents. At a young age he moved to Colonial Heights, VA, and was exposed to the simple life of a virginian. Just as he had settled down he was moved, once again, to Longwood, FL. He lived out his eventful high school years in a house on Homer St. After high school he wore, for the first time, a chipmunk suit and traveled down the road to a local 7-11 and scared away little children. Because of this, his family decided to send him away to a prestigous medical facility located in Boston Mass. Many studies are centered around him and his many quirks. It has been discovered that though he prefers the chipmunk outfit, he looks better with swimfins and a rubber tu-tu. His greatest desire is to be the trusty sidekick of a famous superhero, and to write a 1000 page Romance Novel entitled THE BUTTERFLY. He was moved to a facility in North Attleboro, Mass. during the early 21st Century where his current intrests include clay pots and video games.

Cats are animals according to any dictionary. We have a redirect from Cat hoarding already. I almost didn't find the Animal hoarding article.

Origin of "Kashalikar"s

"Kashali" is a small town in Konkan area of Western Maharashtra (India). In Marathi "kar" means "from". "Karhade Brahmins" from "Kashali" bearing the surname "Bhagwat" when migrated out of "Kashali" came to be known as "Kashalikar". Thus the name is after the "Kashali" town.

Johnnie Walters

Johnnie Walters was one of CKCO-TV's Most popular personalities. He hosted "THE JOHNNIE WALTERS SHOW" which I believe started in 1975(?)& ran till the early '80s.It was on weekday mornings & was an hour long. It featured Various guests-Celebrities pitching their latest TV show/Movie etc,an Exercise segment,Horoscopes & a Cooking segment as well(?). He also hosted "TRIVIA COMPANY" on CKCO TV From the early to late '80s.This show was a half hour game show type program which featured him going out on the street asking various people on the street various Trivia questions.

    • There was also a later version which appeared on CFPL TV (London)in the early '90s.It also was a half hour program that aired on early Sunday evenings.

Johnnie Walters also was an occasional fill in Weatherman on the 11 p.m. edition of the local CKCO TV news.He looked GREAT in the Classic traditonal CKCO TV RED Jacket!

Born in Canada, Walters made the rounds hosting local shows on TV stations in various US cities, developing his unique style. According to Dave Thomas' book, "SCTV: Behind The Scenes", Walters hosted a show in St. Louis, MO. called "Dialling For Dollars", which was spoofed on the satire show.

Walters paid his dues, then came to CKCO, Kitchener a seasoned pro, his first attempt there being "Horoscope Dollars," a very low-budget show, featuring Walters actually calling residents at random (before call display) with a money question, the correct answer to which depended on them viewing that particular show. Some of the best moments came during the the time spent dialling and waiting for numbers to connect, as he engaged in informal banter with offscreen crew and organist Hap Swathrich.

He had a GREAT sense of Humour & stood out from the rest of the News personalities!!!

WHERE IS JOHNNIE WALTERS NOW???? He's sorely Missed. Always looking for classic TV show episodes of his shows!

Prior to conceiving and founding this free, public series, Victoria was a featured host and contributor on Chicago Public Radio for two decades, beginning as a free-lance arts reviewer while in her twenties.

When a new daily magazine, "848", started up, Victoria signed on as a regular interviewer and contributor on a wide variety of subjects, including not only arts and culture but also medicine, education, and other complex issues.

Victoria has also been a regular contributor to Chicago PBS affiliate WTTW-Ch. 11's Emmy award-winning programs "Artbeat Chicago" and "Chicago Tonight"; a segment host and producer on WBBM-Ch. 2’s award-winning magazine show, "Eye On Chicago"; and, a regular culture correspondent for WMAQ-Ch. 5’s afternoon news report.
