Errol's application for American citizenship!
26
Mar
Here is Errol's application to become an American!
Which was made on May 9, 1936 or December 20, 1938 not clear to me on this record. Maybe some of you fellow members can decipher this one?
Did he forget the date he married Lili – maybe he wanted to that? So, when did he get married? Is it really May 5, 1935 as he states in this application or as so many records say otherwise – that it was June 19, 1935? Another noteworthy declaration on this application is – as stated here – that he lived already in May 1936 at 601 North Linden Drive. Did he live there with Lili? Was this not his Bachelor Pad with David Niven? There are nothing but questions – leave it to Errol and there are nothing but riddles! Is there anybody able to shed some light on it?

I received an e-mail from Thriftbooks and I looked a little at their offerings and I found this book, which is quite strange to me.
There is a book for sale “My Wicket, Wicket Ways” by Sandra Cisneros,
released in 19992 by Knopf Publishing and it is a hardcover ISBN
0679418210
Can anybody use Errol Flynn's title of his book?
I am rather curious!

Errol and his Yachts!
15
Mar
We all know that Errol had the two Siroccos of which the later Sirocco is really the 'Karenita' who is alive and well and the Zaca, but apparently so I heard, that he had a big range of boats, anything from 30' up.
There was for instance the 'BARBARY' a 16 ton ketch and here are pictures of her – a nice little Beauty – and then read all about her in the link below!
It looks like most of his boat stood for something good, either before him or after him and for a good and famous cause! His choices of boats were great ones as he was! And more important, they are still cruising on his beloved oceans and he is on them having a hell of a time!
Your and my job is now is to find the other boats Errol owned in his life, there supposed to be about 20 of them, large and small, so we have our job cut out and for something worthwhile and meaningful as we try to trace his life!
Please keep searching and add them to his collection on this Blog! It would be great if all our Blog members would participate! I know we have Master Sleuths amongst us! I would love to hear from all of you and after this task I have a wonderful prize for you it will tickle you pink!
Have fun!

How shy was Errol and if so, what could have been the reasons for it?

Can anybody decipher this picture?

Hello everyone and a good morn' to all of you!
I found this picture quite a while ago and always wondered what the deeper meaning of it could be???
I thought maybe you could put light where there is darkness!
I know that “eppur me sono scordata ti me” means “Yet I forget about you”, which also I know is an Italian song. But, then there is the “Figure 61 Planet”, which has something to do with physics and after that I am stymied. I must have been missing in school when they taught this subject! Like Errol, I had other things to do than to go to all the classes! I know you didn't do such things and therefore you will have the answer!

Who invented the Laptop?
Who else?
But Errol!
Typing away very seriously all the great news on his “Laptop” on the ZACA, which we are ever so busy searching for!
Have a great morning smile and an even greater day!

Errol on a Barrel!
06
Feb
Hi Everyone!
I was MIA and I really missed you all and the Blog! I wonder if I ever catch up with all the news
as it has been a long time.
In a nutshell since August things went from bad to worse! First I had eye surgery, which should have
been simple, but you guessed it – it was not! After that and thinking all is well again my
daughter became ill, then to top the “Bill of Fair” my husband got very sick
and had to have bypass surgery and that was an ordeal as it was associated with
complications twice. We nearly lost him,
but thanks to the Lord he pulled through!
Now that the worsted is over and the family finally breathes
again I thought it is time to get back on the Blog, although maybe just
part-time but nevertheless one has to be grateful for small mercies.
With my return to action I thought I give you a giggle!
Errol on a Barrel!
These are hilarious pictures of our Hero in a Western Sombrero sitting on a barrel our good old Errol!
What was Warner Brothers thinking to make pictures like that? I can understand for their internal special
effects photography – but to publish them?
What are your thoughts about it? No doubt they are funny!
