Alzheimer's Association. Alzheimer's disease is a progressive and fatal brain disease. There is no cure. Former President Bush vetoed a bill (Labor/HHS bill - HR 3043) that included $30 billion for the National Institutes of Health, which would have brought a $16 million increase for Alzheimer research.

Mom's Descent Into Alzheimer's Consumes Her Daughter's Life - letter from Dear Abby column 11/10/08.
I love Incredible TV & movies but I love my girlfriend so very much more. She is a diabetic and is looking for a cure. Diabetes can damage the body's organs and can kill. A human body needs to utilize properly the blood sugar (glucose) to have FUEL to run normally. A diabetic's body does not do that and needs insulin injections or pills to properly utilize the blood sugar. This can be very hard on the body. A diabetic controls the problem by monitoring his or her blood sugar levels several times a day and eating the right food and the right amount to cover the insulin they take. - DIABETES RESEARCH WELLNESS FOUNDATION - AMERICAN DIABETES ASSOCIATION - If you can, please donate so a CURE can be found. THANK YOU.

My Parents Wedding Anniversary
The bibliography for my website www.incredibletvandmovies.com PLUS other books of interest
Initially, this site was proudly constructed on a POWER MACINTOSH G3.
There is another web address for this site that goes as far back as at least 1999 which is http://www.geocities.com/hotsprings/sauna/2978/. Geocities later gave me a shorter web address that went to the same place which is http://www.geocities.com/alcus2.

I received an email dated July 9, 2009 that said Yahoo! GeoCities, the web site building service and community, is closing on October 26, 2009. On October 26, 2009, my GeoCities site will no longer appear on the web. On October 27, 2009, I checked both of the above mentioned web addresses and they are longer on the web.

In 2009, this site changed addresses to www.incredibletvandmovies.com. The webhosting service is EarthLink.
Age doesn't matter at this website where entertainment history is explored and appreciated. I don't decide what to watch based on the age of the show. It's unfair to leave great entertainment behind just because it has some years on it. Please choose from some of my TV and movie favorites. I've really enjoyed building these pages, so please share your opinions and knowledge with me. I will continue to update my site, with fresh information. THIS IS A NON-PROFIT WEBSITE FOR ME, AND IT IS INTENDED ONLY FOR FUN AND ENJOYMENT. Unless otherwise noted, I design these pages for a screen resolution of 800 x 600. Thank you for visiting this site.
I understand someone said most of what we hear on internet talk is from this Alcus. The guy needs a life. Oh my gosh! I better shape up fast. It might take a while. Marie Osmond has the NutriSystem.
TV shows I'd like to see on DVD in complete season or half season sets are The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet (1952-66), Life of Riley (1953-58), Dennis the Menace (1959-63).
As of 9/8/08, www.amazon.com will no longer be accepting paper checks or money orders. This is horrible news. I guess they don't care about identity theft.
