Continuing my prison camp theme, I now present my review of The Great Escape:
1. When I grow up, I want to be The Scrounger. He was living large. (Now imagine if he and William Holden’s character from Stalag 17 were in the same prison camp. These are the guys to know.)
2. SMcQ looks good dirty.
3. Re-using your tea leaves 20 times???? I would be in hell.
4. SMcQ looks good in the cooler.
5. The King of Cool - playing The Cooler King? How cool is that?
6. The best-dressed POW award goes to: David McCallum (the other Man from U.N.C.L.E.) It might be my own ignorance of RAF uniforms, but his was a bit flashier than everybody else’s and he was not the highest-ranking officer, but it was still nice.
7. Word to the wise: If you are an escaped prisoner being taken back to your prison camp, and your captors (THE ENEMY!!) says it’s okay to "get out and stretch your legs" – DON’T YOU BELIEVE IT.

8. "Progressive myopia": welcome to my world. I would be toast.
9. SMcQ looks good stuck in barbed wire.
10. Bit O' Trivia: Did you know that the motorcycle ridden by SMcQ is the same one ridden by Fonzie on "Happy Days"??? I didn't.
