  1. INTERESTING surprise at the end of this week's Flash! George
  2. Yes. It is the Wizard of Oz. Presumably, the prison show you were referring to is Oz. I didn't get it. George
  3. Well, I have removed giveaway names from the quotes, and these aren't the most memorable ones; but, yes, this should be an easy one. (Especially after the clue you gave WW.) George
  4. "And remember, my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much *you* love; but by how much you are loved by others." "What she's done? I'm all but lame from the bite on my leg!" "You mean she bit you?" "No, her dog!" "Oh, she bit her dog, eh?" "All right. I'll go in there... guards or no guards, I'll tear them apart. I may not come out alive, but I'm going in there. There's only one thing I want you fellas to do." "What's that?" "Talk me out of it." "Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable." "Just because you own half the county doesn't mean that you have the power to run the rest of us. For 23 years, I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you, and now... well, being a Christian woman, I can't say it!" George
  5. Apparently not for any of the others. April Page Wendy Killian Sara McKenna Odette Veronica Quaife Barbara Maitland Valerie Gail Muriel Pritchett Angie Scacciape George
  6. I would have thought either Chuck Berry or the Beatles, but I'll trust that ELO also covered it. You're up. George
  7. The Dream Team Christopher Lloyd Back to the Future George

  9. I think my favorite song of theirs was the "MTA" (Massachusetts Transit Authority). It was actually a political ad complaining that the MTA had just added a dime surcharge to the fare if you passed a certain station. It was collected as you leave. One poor passenger got on the train unawares and couldn't get off, because he didn't have a dime on him. The really sill part was that his wife would hand him a sandwich through the window every day. Why didn't she just give him a dime? By the time I went to MIT, the extra fare was well established, so I was never caught without the extra dime. The CTA in Chicago did something similar. When I took a CTA train in from the northern suburbs, the conductor would collect the extra fare or a transfer token when you entered Chicago. George
  10. Just not ringing any bells. Maybe other lyrics might give it to me, but that's not the point of this thread. George PS I thought my "Name That Tune" post was a gimme, especially with the last lyric I added, but no one seems to be getting it, either.
  11. It sounded like a Tony Stark thing to say. New one soon. George
  12. No, again. Maybe these will help: My Friend Irma The Stooge Road to Bali The Caddy Artists and Models Pardners Hollywood or Bust Rio Bravo Sergeants 3 Something's Got to Give Who's Been Sleeping in My Bed? Robin and the 7 Hoods The Sons of Katie Elder Bandolero The Silencers Murderer's Row The Cannonball Run George
  13. Adam Baldwin Serenity Morena Baccarin George
  14. No. (Probably guessed because of Road to Bali.) My Friend Irma The Stooge Road to Bali The Caddy Artists and Models Pardners Hollywood or Bust Rio Bravo Sergeants 3 Something's Got to Give Who's Been Sleeping in My Bed? George
  15. My cursive isn't as good as it once was, but I still write quite legibly. My printing is better; I use that almost exclusively when writing in lab books. My understanding is that children for the last decade or two have not even been TAUGHT cursive. If you ask them, "How do you sign checks?" they just stare blankly. I believe, though, that cursive is making a comeback; and I think that's a good thing. (Of course, I still have a flip phone and a cathode ray tube TV.) George
