| Blazing saddles = History lesson?
So I'm sitting here watching Blazing saddles, a Mel Brooks classic, and in my ignorance I have to look up the relevance of the Hedly Lamarr jokes. In doing so I wouldn't have learned that without the Famed 40's actress Hedy Lamarr we would be without modern Wi-Fi, cell phone or even our beloved Spectrum radios! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedy_Lamarr read and learn Last edited by slobin3d; 08-15-2010 at 10:42 PM. |
