Straight talk from Jerry Marshall: Setting the records straight How it really was. The last word: Wherein Jerry Marshall addresses and clearifies most of the major issues facing ColumbiaMagazine readers at this point in time, August 4, 2012: 1) The Odd Couple issue which has polarized - split right down the middle - our readership; with Bro. Dave Rosenbaum making up one half of our readers, everybody else the other half, and the third half still bewildered until Lewis Williams speaks. 2) The Real Record Holder in the Popcorn Business - and it's not Robert Flowers (NOR Rodney Thompson for that matter). And The pivotal role Vernon and Bobby Bowe played in turning the writer's life around - in this tell all miniography of Life of Marshall, by Jerry Marshall. AND more. -CM Comments re photo 46164 Favorite Old Poster Columbian Theatre Calendar 1969 By Jerry Marshall That was the Odd Couple movie, which came out in 1968. New release movies were not made available to small town theatres at that time. That is why we didn't get it til 1969. Also, for the record, I spent many an hour at the Columbian as well. I would challenge that I popped more popcorn than Robert Flowers ever did. I was trained by Vernon and Bobby Bowe to run the projectors behind my Daddy's back in hopes of surprising him with my new talent some day. And that day did arrive when One of the projectionists was ill - on a Sunday - and I stepped in. Dad only had to help me once during the film. While Mikki was trained to sell tickets, I was trained to pop and sell popcorn, run the ice cream bar, take up tickets (not much to that one) and because of some misguided judgment at school school, spent time developing my cleaning skills. Just wanted to set the record straight, Ed. - Jerry Marshall Thanks! Jerry Marshall: There is no greater pleasure for an humble internet editor than to have an issue posed, an issue discussed with civil discourse, and issue laid to rest authoritatively as you have done. When Dean Quinn steered up a hornet's nest - inadvertently; he is not a known troublemaker. It's a relief to get all the answers in one neat, concise but comprehensive clarification, as you have done so magnificently. So that settles that. -ED This story was posted on 2012-08-04 14:16:22
