Lloyd Lindsey Young - Critter Diner Posted by: PaulJD2006
Video duration: 121 seconds Lloyd in his usual fine form. I fondly remember Lloyd as the zany weatherman at NYC's own WOR Ch9 during the 80s. He's a broadcast original in a sea of blandness and conformity. I'm told that members of the WOR viewing audience loved him or hated him, yeah I'm in the former.

AstroLand commercial Posted by: PaulJD2006
Video duration: 32 seconds Astroland got a reprieve from destruction and is supposed to operate for one more Summer season in 2008. I was there in 2007 and it was jumpin, plenty of business.
