  1. "Outstanding! I may have to give you a promotion." "That was not my motivation, Captain. I am not attempting to curry favor with you in any way." [laughing] "Mr. Tuvok, if you're going to remain on my ship, you're gonna have to learn how to appreciate a joke. And don't tell me Vulcans don't have a sense of humor, because I know better." "I will... work on it, sir." "Structure. Logic. Function. Control. A structure cannot stand without a foundation. Logic is the foundation of function. Function is the essence of control. I am in control. I am in control." "You'll find that more happens on the bridge of a starship than just carrying out orders and observing regulations. There is a sense of loyalty to the men and women you serve with. A sense of family. Those two men on trial... I served with them for a long time. I owe them my life a dozen times over. And right now they're in trouble and I'm going to help them; let the regulations be damned." "That is a most illogical line of reasoning." "You better believe it. Helm, engage!" "Mr. Sulu, I see they have finally given you the captaincy you deserve." "Thank you, Kang." "Do not let it end prematurely." "Enthraxic citrus peel, orange juice with just a hint of papalla seed extract. An experimental blend." "The success rate of your culinary experiments has not been high." "Ensign Golwat tried some yesterday, and she thought it was delicious. In fact, she had a second glass, and she never has seconds." "Ensign Golwat is Bolian. Her tongue has a cartilaginous lining. It would protect her against even the most corrosive acid." "If you were human, I'd say you had a severe panic attack." "I am not human." "No kidding." "We could have just asked her." "Asking female officers for their clothing could lead to misunderstanding." "Space must have seemed a whole lot bigger back then. It's not surprising they had to bend the rules a little. They were a little slower to invoke the Prime Directive, and a little quicker to pull their phasers. Of course, the whole bunch of them would be booted out of Starfleet today. But I have to admit: I would have loved to ride shotgun at least once with a group of officers like that." George
  2. Here's another classic from the early 70's: Lincoln job hunting George
  3. Or that it was a recent movie starring Clint Eastwood? George
  4. I almost hate myself for this one: "Pus sy!" (Hint: this was spoken in surprise, not contempt or anger.) George P.S. I had to break the word up to get it past the cuss-blocker.
  5. Elizabeth Berridge (sp?) The Betsy Lawrence Olivier George
  6. I know that this is a Bogart film, but I'm not sure which one. My best guess is "Casablanca." George
  7. Yep. "The Running Man." It featured Erland van Lidth de Jeude as Dynamo. Erland was an acquaintance of mine at MIT, where he was an engineering major, wrestler, and actor. I believe that it is actually his voice in the scenes where Dynamo is singing opera. In "Stir Crazy," another voice was dubbed in the scene where he sings in a jail cell. His first feature film was "The Wanderers." Sadly, weight was always a problem, and he died of heart failure at the young age of 34. :( Go, WW. George
  8. I use three sites to find people. Switchboard.com has five listings for Doug or Douglas McMullan. (Use the "Find a Person" tab.) Intelius.com has fourteen hits, giving ages and previous cities. You have to pay to get actual addresses and phone numbers, but it's only about $2. You can also buy a "24-hr pass" to get all the searches you want for about $20. Zabasearch has eight listings. Often, the listings include year of birth, but not for any of these. Knowing age, state, spouse's name, etc., these sites should help you find just about anyone. George
  9. Later in his life, my Dad found out that he was allergic to wheat (probably to the gluten). So, soybean-based spaghetti (looked a lot like extruded plastic), and RYE WHISKEY! George

  11. "Silence, you ninny." "Now come along with me, you ludicrous lump, there's much to be done." "You bubble-headed booby! You realize what you've done?" "My micromechanism thanks you, my computer tapes thank you, and I thank you." George
  12. The first line gives the star away. Where would one find "reruns"? George
  13. Lily Tomlin All of Me Steve Martin George
  14. It seems that no one will guess "Batman Returns." Free post for anyone who wants to give it a try. George
  15. Seems vaguely familiar, but I can't place it... George

  17. No. Not even the right series. The World's Finest story was from the 60's. Some scientist thought he had blown up Krypton. Superman "punished" him by making him see the destruction on some magic viewer that could dial up old light waves. Anyway, we see Jor-el saying something like, "A ray from Earth has been sent to stop our destruction -- but it's not having any effect!" The scientist is released from all the grief he's carried for years. Flash forward to the 70's and, I believe, and Action comic (maybe Superman). The evil Black Zero finds out that the instability in Krypton's core is subsiding, so he blows the planet up with a big bomb. Apparently (and unbeknown to DC's editors), the Earth scientist HAD succeeded in halting Krypton's destruction, only to have Black Zero finish the job. (As a final note, I seem to remember Superman teaming up with criminal Jax-ur to capture Black Zero. (After all, Krypton was his home, too.) Jax-ur gets exposed to red kryptonite, giving him a head like Medusa, and he turns Black Zero to stone! How DID they think this stuff up?) :) George
  18. "Me and Bobby Magee" (sp?) Janis Joplin Trailer for sale or rent.. George
  19. Remind me to share some time how I tied together Black Zero and an old World's Finest comic. Anyway... "Space must have seemed a whole lot bigger back then.

  20. Yep. I figured that after a couple of Beatles tunes, we needed some Dave Clark Five. Your turn. George
  21. And that's legal in some states.. "I Saw Her Standing There" also by the Beatles You say that you love me, all of the time... George
  22. Not familiar to me, but if it was Neil Young, I was probably banging pots and pans to cover the horrible sound! :lol: George
