  1. Everybody knows that Alaska and Hawaii were the 49th and 50th states admitted to the Union. What were the 47th and 48th? (OK if you get them out of order.) George
  2. The first time I saw the acronym SNAFU was in a Wonder Woman comic; it was expanded as "Situation Normal, All FOULED Up." A few years later, some fraternity brothers were helping me with a computer program and suggested SNAFU as a label. When I told them what I thought it meant, they sort of grinned and said, I guess it COULD mean that! Sharp cookie that I was, I immediately knew the R-rated version. The "Beyond All Recognition" version was introduced to me later. New one soon. George
  3. Correct answer, though a couple of missed assignations. Walter Bascom was his role in Tek War; he was Denny Crane in Boston Legal. (That would have been one of the giveaways.) He was Jeff Cable in Barbary Coast. He was also Bob Wilson in the more memorable of his two Twilight Zone episodes. Incidentally, the J in TJ Hooker stood for Jefferson. Warp speed, Mr. Wolf! George
  4. Alexi Karamazov Peter Gifford Capt. Harrison Byers Adam Cramer Bob Wilson Paul DeVinger David Koster John Adams William J Baxter Jeff Cable Gary Baylor Buck Murdock Thomas Hooker Stan Fields Walter Bascom George (giveaways on the next round)
  5. Tommy Lee Jones Prairie Home Companion Woody Harrelson George
  6. Tango and Cash? I remember the uncorrected quote. George
  7. I've heard of most of these movies, but I've only seen "There's Something About Mary" and "Step Brothers." I have no idea who is in the others. George
  8. Correct. Jackie Robinson's number with the Dodgers. A few days ago was Jackie Robinson Day, where ALL players wore number 42. George
  9. Characters in this movie include Leo Durocher, Eddie Stanky, Joe Garagiola, Branch Rickey, Pee Wee Reese, and Red Barber. Robert Redford and Jack Nicholson were considered for the Rickey role. The film does not explore the main character's career with the Montreal Royals, but he was hugely popular. After leading the team to the league championship, it was noted: ..."probably the only day in history that a black man ran from a white mob that had love, not lynching, on its mind." The star is perhaps better known for a role in the MCU. The star did many of his own stunts, because he believed that his stunt double's performance was not true to the main character's actions (the actual person portrayed in the movie). It's about Jackie Robinson. IT'S A NUMBER BETWEEN 41 AND 43. George
  10. No, I'm sure it's KK (when Daniel and Miyagi show up at the Cobra Kai dojo). "There's no place like home." George
  11. Yes. However, my LAST clue should give it away. George
  12. A Day in the Life "Each time we have a quarrel, it almost breaks my heart, 'cause I'm so afraid that we will have to part." George
  13. Spinning Wheel (Not the first line) "You know I work all day, to get you money to buy you things." George
  14. Chuck Norris Lone Wolf McQuade David Carradine George

  17. Douglas and Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct? Douglas and Kathleen Turner in War of the Roses? George
  18. Interesting guess, but no. This movie was not a comedy, although it did have some lighter moments. George
  19. Top Gun This is one that may not be "easy" for the general public but should be for this crew: "Even with accumulated knowledge when'll these dummies learn to use a doorknob?" George
  20. Again, I can "hear" this one, but I can't remember the title (or the lady who sings it). George
