  1. Actually, I can name TWO Jethro Tull songs... George
  2. I haven't called Vic Wierwille "Doctor" in decades. I still hear it a lot, though. George
  3. Has sort of a Mel Brooks feel to it, but I don't recognize it. George
  4. Again, we all have different musical experiences, so what may be "everyone knows this" to one of us might be "no idea" to the rest of us. Especially with this thread, though, we want to make it EASY for the other participants. In "Name that Tune" we can be a little more obscure; but even then, the song should have had airplay, not just be a favorite deep cut on an album. FWIW, I've heard of Buffalo Springfield. Though I can't think of any of their songs off the top of my head, I might recognize some of their songs by the lyrics. "Kind Woman" isn't one of them. George
  5. Since you already guessed him, I felt it fair to look him up. Died at 57 (one year after leaving office). George
  6. It has to be one of the youngest presidents. Obviously not Clinton, Obama, or GW Bush. Teddy Roosevelt? George
  7. I think Kennedy was still in his 40s when he was shot. I suspect that FDR was older than 59 when he died (after 14 years in office). I also thing WHH was an older guy. I'm thinking Abraham Lincoln, William McKinley, and James Garfield. All assassinated and moderately young. George
  8. I doubt you have access to "MeTV" but it broadcasts those shows on Saturday night. I get a kick out of "Time Tunnel." No matter where and when they wind up, everyone speaks English. George
  9. Finally nailed it. I saw the movie when it first came out, and I still remember the "practice when I'm alone" and "scared of dying" exchanges. George
  10. I can never remember which Eastwood film this is. "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly"? George
  11. Partners Ryan O'Neal Love Story George
  12. 5) IS Jonny Quest 3) IS The Time tunnel So, you win. (Incidentally, those are the two I would have known immediately.) The others: 1) The Invaders 2) Land of the Giants 4) Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea 6) It's About Time George
  13. Still no. (Allen and Keaton weren't Russians in Sleeper, and that movie is even further from Napoleon's time than Manhattan.) "To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy, one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down." "You are the greatest lover I've ever had." "Well, I practice a lot when I'm alone." "Oh don't, Boris, please. Sex without love is an empty experience." "Yes, but as empty experiences go, it's one of the best." "So who is to say what is moral?" "Morality is subjective." "Subjectivity is objective." "Moral notions imply attributes to substances which exist only in relational duality." "Not as an essential extension of ontological existence." "Can we not talk about sex so much?" "The question is: have I learned anything about life? Only that... only that human beings are divided into mind and body. The mind embraces all the nobler aspirations, like poetry and philosophy, but the body has all the fun. The important thing, I think, is not to be bitter. You know, if it turns out that there IS a God, I don't think that He's evil. I think that the worst you can say about Him is that, basically, He's an underachiever. After all, you know, there are worse things in life than death. I mean, if you've ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman, you know exactly what I mean. The key here, I think, is to... to not think of death as an end, but think of it more as a very effective way of cutting down on your expenses. Regarding love, heh, you know, what can you say? It's not the quantity of your sexual relations that count. It's the quality. On the other hand, if the quantity drops below once every eight months, I would definitely look into it. Well, that's about it for me folks. Goodbye." "If I don't kill him he'll make war all through Europe. But murder... the most foul of all crimes. What would Socrates say? All those Greeks were homosexuals. Boy, they must have had some wild parties. I bet they all took a house together in Crete for the summer. A: Socrates is a man. B: All men are mortal. C: All men are Socrates. That means all men are homosexuals. Heh... I'm not a homosexual. Once, some cossacks whistled at me. I happen to have the kind of body that excites both persuasions. You know, some men are heterosexual and some men are bisexual and some men don't think about sex at all, you know... they become lawyers." "Sonja, are you scared of dying?" "Scared is the wrong word. I'm frightened of it." "That's an interesting distinction." George
  14. The Untouchables Charles Martin Smith American Graffiti George
  15. No, I think Napoleon predated "Manhattan" by a couple of centuries. Would it help to know that the main characters are Russian? George
  16. "I'm so glad we had this time together..." George
  17. No. Gee, I hope somebody gets it before Oct. 31... George
  18. The Suicide Squad (2021) Idris Elba Thor: Ragnarok George
  19. Money for Nothing "At first I was afraid, I was petrified Thinking I could live without you by my side." George
  20. Again, right church, wrong pew. Would it help if I mention that the potential murder victim in the last quote was Napoleon? George
