I have updated the winners of the trivia question so far.  No one has answered the translation of the German poster yet.  Check them out HERE.

I've been busy with a few other details of my site that I have not had the time to go back on and fix.  I have updated the trivia section with a new quesiton.  Check that out HERE.  I have added a link to the Antler Inn's pictures that I borrowed, that link is HERE.  I have also, with the help of Chappy Taylor, fixed some of the misleading information I wrote about the pictures of the Antler Inn's photos that I posted.  Again, minor details.  I also added the lyrics to the Ramones song, "Chainsaw".  Check them out HERE.

I also finally posted something that I've been meaning to bring up for a long time.  I have noticed a slight sound editing flaw that has been bugging me.  I've duped just a couple of seconds of the flaw to a .wav file (it's not big, don't worry about it) and I've posted the file and my explanation HERE.

I have also added an interesting FAQ to my FAQ page.  Scroll down for info about why the upstairs of the Leatherface home was painted pink.

Looks like La Frontera revamped their web site for something a bit more slick.  Check it out HERE.  By the way, if you don't mind the download time, I think you should check out the .pdf files they have at http://www.la-frontera.com/about/technical.html.  Specifically, the document on original restrictions for La Frontera west.  In the document, there is a great drawing of Quick Hill and all surrounding areas with great detail about the acreage.

By the way, today is day #31 for shooting TCM 27 years ago.  It was today that the infamous dinner scene was shot.

August 13, 2000

I have more fan fotos posted.  Check out Jacob and his brother's pictures HERE.  They both went to Quick Hill with one dressed as Leatherface with a chainsaw.  They're really cool!

Also, our big fan Patty Augustine has submitted her own writings about her relationship with TCM.  You can read part 1 and part 2.

By the way, today is day #30 for shooting TCM 27 years ago.
The 27th anniversary of shooting the dinner scene will be tomorrow night.

Gunnar and I have posted another TCM rock up on eBay.  Except we're including in the auction a few pictures of Gunnar collecting the rocks.  I have never posted any of these pictures anywhere and at some point in time, I'll post them to my web site.  You can check out the eBay auction HERE.

Gunnar should be posting more on his web site by the end of this weekend.  His site is HERE.

For anyone that will be going to the Houston TCM cast appearance, I'll be there at least on Saturday, if not Friday night as well.  While I'm there, I hope to have completed a photo album of all the pictures that I have on this web site and available for viewing.  FYI...

My wife and I made a trek out to Kingsland yesterday to borrow pictures from the owners of the Antler Inn.  The pictures I borrowed (17 of them) are pictures they took of the Leatherface house while it was still on Quick Hill just before they moved it.  Also, there are a few pictures of them putting it back together in Kingsland.  Check them out HERE.

Brian and Kent sent another picture from their trip to Texas.  But this one is SO COOL!  While they were at Quick Hill, they found that someone put up a toy chainsaw on a tree just down the street from where the Leatherface house used to be.  Check out this funny picture HERE.

Looks like Gunnar has made another addition to his web site, although minor.  He's posing with a fish.  Anyone heard of the song, "Fish Heads" by Barnes and Barnes?

Also, I found out that The Ramones wrote a song called "Texas Chainsaw Massacre".  I have the MP3 of the song.  Check it out HERE.  (It's 1.85MB).

August 2, 2000

I made a couple of corrections about Brian and Kent's pictures that they sent me.  They took a couple more than I thought.  Again, check them out HERE.

August 1, 2000

Looks like Gunnar Hansen is making a little headway with his web site.  Check it out HERE.
