dont have to be an ass i called some people and they told me that they cant talk about it and its under wraps
Yes, It was Karl Malden.
It wasn't Gary native Gene Hackman who just died -- it was Karl Malden. He was born and raised in Gary. He died yesterday, I believe, at the age of 97.
I loved your comment SmartCookie. Thank you. :-)
they will be at nsh all this week an all next week come see
To Dave K, Karen T and Danny Malone- that drugstore was Dickerson Drugs and I knew it very well as it was owned by my Father-Chuck Dickerson. I just found this web site (5 hours ago) and have been mesmerized. As many people on here, I was also born at Methodist hospital (downtown) and baptized at City Methodist. And, went to Webster and Wallace-which was also a middle school when I went. (But, I think I'm a little older than most of you.)So, I have long time Gary ties. But, I also left a long time ago. I don't know what exactly it is, but there is something very special about being from Gary, Ind. Somehow, it never leaves you. As evidenced by being such a part of Michael Jackson's deal. Also, it was just announced that Gene Hackman passed away today and it was mentioned that he was from Gary. I don't remember even hearing where Farrah came from. Something about Gary stays with us forever. It was a great place to be from!
oh my god u saw them that must have been so cool did they have there truck out and was the camera's around them and what where they doing when u saw them... and do u know when they are filming love to meet them.. its about time they finally let filming there a real film not vh1 or some thing stupid lol
Superbe photos mais ça laisse un petit froid dans le dos qu'on ne peut exliqué. Dans l'épisode du docteur House il a dû flipper un peu de devoir rentrer dedans. Et dire que c'était complètement abandonné, dans le dr House on aurait vraiment cru voir un hopital psychiatrique bien actif
. Bravo pour ses photos, ça n'a rien à voir avec l'intérieur du batiment mais j'ai un faible pour la photo n° 13 (mouhahahahaha
) lolll

Gary would probably be better compared to Flint, MI, except Flint is doing somewhat better. As for all the Michael Jackson comments, I agree, who cares? He knew growing up in Gary was tough and the shape the city was in and never contributed anything! Not many Gary residents shed a tear of his dropping dead, most of the ones on the news or in the papers are from other towns. Only a matter of time until Rudy finds a way to make money off of it, for himself of course.

Pat - I remember Dickerson's drugstore well. Another fond Gary memory!
