  1. Apparently, you haven't watched any blockbuster musicals. Here are lines from four of its biggest songs: "Some enchanted evening, you may see a stranger..." "Bali Ha'i may call you any night, any day; in your heart you'll hear it call you, 'Come away, come away.'" "I'm gonna wash that man right out of my hair." "There is nothing like a dame." George
  2. Slightly later film. Instrumental theme song was big. "Nothing from that first day I saw her and no one that has happened to me since, has ever been as frightening and as confusing. For no person I've ever known has ever done more to make me feel more sure, more insecure, more important and less significant." "Not even the BEST of friends go halfsies on a rubber!" 1: "Go away, Benjie." 2: "It's my book." 3: "Let him look." 1: "There! They're doin' it!" 2: "I don't believe it." 1: "Well, you better believe it! 'Cause one day your turns gonna come and you better know what to do." 2: "I don't believe it. My mother and father never did that! Never!" 1: "Why not?" 2: "Because it's stupid!" 3: "No, I hate to break the news to you, Benjie, but that's the way its done." "I was never to see her again. Nor was I ever to learn what became of her. We were different then. Kids were different. It took us longer to understand the things we felt. Life is made up of small comings and goings. And for everything we take with us, there is something that we leave behind." "Aw, come on, an older woman like that, what's a little feel to her. Come on, did she let you have a feel to her?" "She gave me some donuts." "I'm not interested in Aggie!" "You're not ready for the older lady. I have to sharpen you up on someone else. Aggie's all I got." "How'd you make out?" "Pretty good." "What'd you do?" "I held her breasts." "You didn't!" "For almost 11 minutes." "Fantastic!" "Eleven full minutes!" "You timed it!" "Yeah. The longest I ever got was 8 minutes with Lila Harrison." "So, you broke your record!" "By 3 minutes!" I was never to see her again. Nor was I ever to learn what became of her. We were different then. Kids were different. It took us longer to understand the things we felt. Life is made up of small comings and goings. And for everything we take with us, there is something that we leave behind. In the [TITLE OF MOVIE], we raided the Coast Guard station four times, we saw five movies, and had nine days of rain. Benji broke his watch, Oscy gave up the harmonica, and in a very special way, I lost Hermie forever. George
  3. Even earlier. "Nothing from that first day I saw her and no one that has happened to me since, has ever been as frightening and as confusing. For no person I've ever known has ever done more to make me feel more sure, more insecure, more important and less significant." "Not even the BEST of friends go halfsies on a rubber!" 1: "Go away, Benjie." 2: "It's my book." 3: "Let him look." 1: "There! They're doin' it!" 2: "I don't believe it." 1: "Well, you better believe it! 'Cause one day your turns gonna come and you better know what to do." 2: "I don't believe it. My mother and father never did that! Never!" 1: "Why not?" 2: "Because it's stupid!" 3: "No, I hate to break the news to you, Benjie, but that's the way its done." "I was never to see her again.

  4. "Nothing from that first day I saw her and no one that has happened to me since, has ever been as frightening and as confusing.

  5. No. Another from the same movie: "Bali Ha'i may call you any night, any day; in your heart you'll hear it call you, 'Come away, come away.'" George
  6. This show was an American adaptation of Brian Cooke's British TV sitcom "Keep It in the Family" (1980). Another of his successful transatlantic adaptations was the UK show "Man About the House" (1973) becoming the US show "Three's Company" (1976). Probably the only series in which a male lead was raped (by two women). As the show is a comedy, it was played somewhat for laughs, but displayed the real trauma of the victim. George
  7. Sean not predicted to do much. Now that cold fronts have actually passed the Texas coast, it's very unlikely that we will see any storms. The rest of the Gulf Coast, though, and the Eastern Seaboard could still see some activity. George
  8. "Who's peekin' out from under a stairway, calling a name that's lighter than air?" George
  9. Miracle on 34th St. "Some enchanted evening, you may see a stranger..." George
  10. Back to School Sally Kellerman Foxes George
  11. I'm going to give it to you. The names were Goofy Grape, Rootin'-Tootin' Raspberry, Loudmouth Lime, Injun Orange, and Chinese Cherry. The last two were changed to Jolly Ollie Orange and Choo-Choo Cherry. Additional flavors were added later, including Lefty Lemon (later called Lefty Lemon-Lime and Lefty Lemonade), Captain Black Cherry, Chilly Cherry Cola, Loud-Mouth Punch (who was a re-working of the Loud-Mouth Lime character), Pistol Pink Lemonade, Rah! Rah! Root Beer, Rudy Tutti-Frutti, Tart Lil' Imitation Lemonade, Tart 'N' Tangy Lemon, Tart n' Tangy Orange, and With-It Watermelon. George
  12. I'm pretty impressed you remember even the flavors. However, there was originally no lemon. It was a different citrus fruit. George
  13. Richard Gere Dr. T & the Women Laura Dern George
  14. "Julia" comes to mind. "One Day at a Time" I think was contemporary with "Alice." George
  15. I can hear Johnny Cash and June Carter singing; I just can't think of the title. George
  16. "Nothing from that first day I saw her and no one that has happened to me since, has ever been as frightening and as confusing. For no person I've ever known has ever done more to make me feel more sure, more insecure, more important and less significant." "Not even the BEST of friends go halfsies on a rubber!" 1: "Go away, Benjie." 2: "It's my book." 3: "Let him look." 1: "There! They're doin' it!" 2: "I don't believe it." 1: "Well, you better believe it! 'Cause one day your turns gonna come and you better know what to do." 2: "I don't believe it.

  17. I suppose I could google 21st century Oscars and look for the monosyllabic one, but it's not coming to me. George
  18. Don't know this one, either. George
  19. Jumping in. Name the five original "Funny Face" drinks. (Kool-Aid competitor, if that helps.) Two of their names were considered too stereotypical and were changed. You can give either the original names or the later versions. (Note: there were eventually a LOT of Funny Face drinks. I'm only looking for the originals.) George
