Professor: Well then, eh, Skipper if you were asleep how could you know that Gilligan was? Skipper: Because he told me when he woke up. Professor: Well if Gilligan was asleep, how could he know that you were? Skipper: Well because I.... a.... well........ yes.

Here are the current ones: http://www.gilligansisle.com/quotes.html _____________________________________________________________________________ AND NOW FROM OUR MEMBERS From member dksowner This was on a segment of a local radio station called "Drive-by Comedy." She was unbeatable, unsinkable, (Foghorn Sounds) two lovers were destined to be together. Then the unsinkable became the unthinkable. Tim Curry, Angelina Jolie, Tommy Lee Jones, Dawn Wells, Kate Winslet. and Leonardo DiCaprio......as Gilligan. "Skipper!" S.S. MINNOW Coming to a theater near you. This film is not yet rated. There is a commercial of a mom staring out at sea, waiting for her loved one to return. The camera pans to her dresser and shows a picture of Gilligan? MasterCard, it's everywhere you wan't to be. From Dksowner. When the show "The Nanny" was still on, Fran was stranded at her mother's house during a snow storm and they were watching Gilligan's Island. Mr. Sheffield kept inquiring on how they never got off the island. Member Rebecca TV Guide just announced their top 50 show's of all time, and Gilligan's Island was never mentioned! Do you think they will have re-runs of Buffy the Vampire in 30 years!!!!! Never buying that magazine again! I hope you get other e-mails like this and mention it in your next newsletter. Great job by the way. Andrew For all of you Gilligan's Island Fans who happen to know who the APologetiX are (They rock!!!!!!!), here is something that can be found in their song, 'Story of a Squirrel' which, is, of course, parody of, 'Story of a Girl' and in it they are talking about Noah's ark and they say, "It's Gilligan's Island combined with a zoo!" Even the ApologetiX know Gilligan's Island is worth mentioning in their Christian song parodies! Erin I was watching a rerun of "Hill Street Blues" and I noticed one of the cops on the on an undercover mission at a fish market-holding one of the fish and saying "testing, one-two -three" Perhaps a reference to Gilligan? I am not sure but it reminded me of the episode...you know witch one! Fanaholic Bill H. CHAT this Saturday!!! http://www.gilligansisle.com/chat.html That's all for now. The Howells are paying me 25 cents an hour to be their butler, and I hear them calling for another mango juice cocktail. Gotta go!
