Blue? WOW stuff was blue. AC grad pins were green (like Way Corps, just not as good). George Hey! Notyice how our smiley faces rotate in sync? We must be in alignment and harmony!

I remember having a date with a WC lady who was leading a family of WOWs in Houston. We were watching on of the first episodes of "Star Trek the Next Generation" when Deanna Troi "senses" some other character's feelings. Whend the young lady pointed out the "spiritual" nature of that, I said, "Right. You've got no problem with Vulcans reading minds, but a Betazoid sensing an emotion is a problem?" We both got a laugh out of that. George P.S. And, more on topic, it was a no-no for "regular" wayfers to date WOWs or even do joint Way-things with them. :blink:

"We need another python. See what you can do. We have enough Cobras, okay?" "F--- off, okay?" "I like your sister, Diaz." "She's got a thing for retards." "Any of you boys want to shoot, now's the time. There isn't one of us that doesn't want to be someplace else. But this is what we do, who we are. Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call." "You know, you never told us your name." "John." "Where are you from?" "Bowie, Arizona." "Why'd you leave?" "I got drafted in 'Nam." "And you just stayed?" "It's complicated." "You have family back home?" "Father, maybe. I don't know." "Aren't you curious to see how things might've changed back home?" "Gotta have a reason for that." (1) "What did you do? We came here to help stop the killing! Who are you to..." (2) "Who are YOU?" (3) "Let him go!" (2) "They would've raped her fifty times... and cut your f---ing heads off! Who are you? Who are any of you?" "Maybe you've lost your faith in people. But you must still be faithful to something. You must still care about something. Maybe we can't change what is. But trying to save a life isn't wasting your life, is it?" "I was told it might be possible to rent your boat. We'd like to do that. Is that possible? We need to get upriver." "Where are you going?" "Into Burma." "Burma's a warzone." George

"Worlds may change, galaxies disintegrate, but a woman... always remains a woman." "All this, and power too. Ceasar of stars. Cleopatra... to worship him." "You are like your ship. Powerful, but not human. There is no mercy in you." "He is Kodos. And I've shown him more mercy than he deserves." "I am an actor. I play many parts." "You're an actor now. What were you twenty years ago?" "Younger. Much younger." "Did it ever occur to you that he simply might like the girl?" "It occurred. I dismissed it." "You would." "Even in this corner of the galaxy, Captain, two plus two equals four. Almost certainly, an attempt will be made to kill you. Why do you invite death?" George

No. A much more recent film. And it's a sequel. George

Human, In this and the other game threads, you have to answer the previous clue before you get to give one yourself. I'm guessing that your "I'm in the dark" statement was a clue. Now, since Soul Searcher gave away his answer, I guess you can go. Did you mean for your quote as a clue? A good idea is to read the first few posts of a game thread, just to make sure you know the rules. Glad tohave you playing! George

HW/OTB: What I meant was, Hiway29 correctly identified my song clue as "Chicago." It's his turn to give the next clue. You have to guess the previous post if you want to give a clue yourself. Now, Hiway is pretty affacble, sohe might let you take his turn, but let's see what he says. (We're always happy to get new players.) George

Definitely "Chicago" (another Sinatra tune) Hiway's up. George

You're probably right. And you're right. George

"New Yawk, New Yawk." My kind of town... George

I'm from Texas. I put that as Southwest, though a case could be made for Southeast, if you consider the Gulf Coast as Atlantic seaboard. George

Yep. George

"Joy to the World." My Pappy said, "Son, you're gonna drive me to drinkin'." George

Jack Palance's response to Elijah Wood is priceless: George

After a month, I guess I can jump in. "I am an actor. I play many parts." "You're an actor now. What were you twenty years ago?" "Younger. Much younger." "Did it ever occur to you that he simply might like the girl?" "It occurred. I dismissed it." "You would." "Even in this corner of the galaxy, Captain, two plus two equals four. Almost certainly, an attempt will be made to kill you. Why do you invite death?" George

"You know, you never told us your name." "John." "Where are you from?" "Bowie, Arizona." "Why'd you leave?" "I got drafted in 'Nam." "And you just stayed?" "It's complicated." "You have family back home?" "Father, maybe. I don't know." "Aren't you curious to see how things might've changed back home?" "Gotta have a reason for that." (1) "What did you do? We came here to help stop the killing! Who are you to..." (2) "WHO ARE YOU?" (3) "Let him go!" (2) "They would've raped her fifty times... and cut your f---ing heads off! Who are you? Who are any of you?" "Maybe you've lost your faith in people. But you must still be faithful to something. You must still care about something. Maybe we can't change what is. But trying to save a life isn't wasting your life, is it?" "I was told it might be possible to rent your boat. We'd like to do that. Is that possible? We need to get upriver." "Where are you going?" "Into Burma." "Burma's a warzone." George

Okay, let's make it REALLY obvious: "I'm federal agent Jack Bauer, and today is the longest day of my life." "Jack, if you kill me, you won't know who I work for. You think I work for Drazen, but I don't!" "I trusted you, Nina..." "I was just doing my job." "Your job? My wife and daughter almost died today! How many people that trusted you lost their life today because you were doing your job? Walsh, or Jamey? Ellis? How many others?" "How many people died because of you, Jack?" "We're in an active code, Chloe. We don't have time for your personality disorder." "The only reason that you're conscious right now is because I don't want to carry you." "You inhaled plutonium, George." "So?" "So I'm not the only person who shouldn't be here today." "You okay?" "I'm fine." "Is there anything I can do?" "I said I'm fine! I am trying not to think about what happened, I'm gonna process it later, okay?" "Sure, fine." "Edgar, I appreciate your concern. I really do. Just when I shot that guy, I thought I'd go all fetal position. But the truth is, I didn't feel anything. At all. I hope I'm not some kind of a psychopath." "Well, he WAS trying to kill you." "Yeah, but still!" "Maybe it's a delayed reaction kinda thing. Maybe you'll freak out about it in a few days." "I hope so." "Did you revise the casualty projections?" "Of course...Here they are." "Just give me the number." "Two to five million dead within the first 48 hours." "Good enough." "I was unfairly harsh to you a few minutes ago, I didn't mean anything." "All right. Apology accepted." "It wasn't really an apology, it was more of an observation." "You are gonna tell me what I wanna know, it's just a matter of how much you want it to hurt." George

Consider yourself confirmed... George

Consider my breath bated! George

"I Saw Her Standing There" (Beatles) Well, It's one for the money, two for the show... George

Okay. This has gone on long enough. Gen-2 is probably Gen-3 by now. "Batman" (the first Michael Keaton one). New film: "Maybe you've lost your faith in people. But you must still be faithful to something. You must still care about something. Maybe we can't change what is. But trying to save a life isn't wasting your life, is it?" "I was told it might be possible to rent your boat. We'd like to do that. Is that possible? We need to get upriver." "Where are you going?" "Into Burma." "Burma's a warzone." George

"Jerry Maguire" I'm not sure if this one's been done yet, but... "I'll have what she's having!" George

Time to start "naming names." "Jack, if you kill me, you won't know who I work for. You think I work for Drazen, but I don't!" "I trusted you, Nina..." "I was just doing my job." "Your job? My wife and daughter almost died today! How many people that trusted you lost their life today because you were doing your job? Walsh, or Jamey? Ellis? How many others?" "How many people died because of you, Jack?" "We're in an active code, Chloe. We don't have time for your personality disorder." "The only reason that you're conscious right now is because I don't want to carry you." "You inhaled plutonium, George." "So?" "So I'm not the only person who shouldn't be here today." "You okay?" "I'm fine." "Is there anything I can do?" "I said I'm fine! I am trying not to think about what happened, I'm gonna process it later, okay?" "Sure, fine." "Edgar, I appreciate your concern.

Unless it was listed as a condition of employment when you hired on, it sounds like a violation of the 13th Amendment to me. George

Love it! Of course, it sounds a lot like someone reading Obama's latest tax bill... George
