I have been sent this e-mail from a friend on the TCM Classic Film Union and it is a website where we all can vote for Errol to be #1 – I hope you participate – have fun making Errol #1! Errol must have a lot of fans voting for him as he is #5 on the list already.
Bashor 2202 – his e-mail reads:
I am writing you
to tell you of a classic movie fan website I have launched. It is a
Hall of Fame shot where classic movie fans decide the inductees. Four
times a year the highest vote getter will be inducted into this online
Hall of Fame. The categories are Actors, Actresses, Films, Directors and
a Behind the Scenes Person. One from each category will be inducted
each session. This is not a solicitation. It is absolutely free to vote
for your favorites, I make no money from your votes. We do ask for name
and email on ballot to make sure of one vote per person during induction
period. We do not sell any of your information. Go to www.silverscreenhalloffame.com…
if you would like to vote. Thank you.

Did anybody vote for Errol?
Robin Hood is number one and Errol Flynn is in second place! This is great news!
If you did not vote he must have a lot of fans out there, which we should try to lasso to our blog.
Errol is still second – keep voting, folks!
Not only have I voted… but I used my daughter as well to put in an extra vote! So glad Robin Hood is number one! (The all time most beautiful Errol/Olivia movie. )She (my daughter) gifted me with the DVD last week knowing how I love Errol! Keep the votes coming; he's up from # 5 to # 2 since I cast my vote!! He HAS to WIN!!! We can do this. In love with Errol since I was 10 years old.. that tells you something!! Errol Lives On!!
The last time I checked Errol was still in 2nd place in the voting.
We have to do more voting!
Yes, more voting needed, even robin hood has lost its leading place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FOLKS; we need more voting. Have a look, the voices needed are displayed! We can manage to push at least Robin Hood to the top.
only problem with that… I already voted and can't vote again…
You can get a second e-mail address ;-)
Hi Inga;
There is no second voting it goes per PC and not per e-mail address – only one vote per PC, which I think is fair and fair winning too!
What if you use a Mac?
Hi Robert;
I know you have a Mac and I would say a Mac is a Personal Computer = PC too.
Definitely a better computer BUT nevertheless a PC. Right ?!? Unless you have a different explanation, which I live to hear as I have both!
Sorry – not live – LOVE to hear!
In general parlance, PC refers to a non-Mac computer. (PCs are the “Soviet” version of the computer: like the Russian cars that were cheap, utilitarian, and devoid of any design elegance. They got you to where you're going, but were more often broken down on the side of the road.)
Wonderful explanation!
Am I reading right, do I hear by any chance some snob-ism? Not you? I always visioned you as an unpretentious man like Errol and I am not wrong – am I?
The Reply buttons are missing again, must be my Russian PC – Hahaha!
Not snobism. Just descriptive fact.
Vote for Errol – make him #1

At least Robin Hood made it this time… I voted every month but no chance for Errol… Thanks, Tina!
Hi Inga;
There is always a chance! If Robin Hood makes it so can Errol and Olivia! If all our authors would vote, as there is only one vote per PC anyway, he would make it! At least I think so for what it's worth!
Take care!
