This song's not on my play list, either. George

Are you sure it's about humans? George

I'll jump in. "She asked him why..." George

Interesting point, but lousy Latin. In governs either the accusative case, in which case it is rendered "into," or an ablative, in which case it is rendered "in." Caecus is the masculine, singular, nominative form of the adjective; and terrae is the nominative plural, the genitive singular, or the dative singular form of the noun terra. Assuming the meaning was to be "In the land of the blind, a one-eyed man is king." it should be In caecorum terra, luscus rex est. I've seen patria (country) used instead of terra (land) for this proverb: In patria caecorum, luscus rex est. (Or, because word order is not essential in Latin, "Caecorum in patria, luscus rex est.") Interfector Draconum :)

Definitely! Have a great one (and many more)! George (And it's good to see Dooj back!)

I don't know what comparisons there are between Sandra and Keanu, other than they bothe have average looks and average talent. Anyway "Miss Congeniality"? George

David Niven The Pink Panther (the old one) Peter Sellers George

Ah, it's the OLD "Running Scared." Darlanne Fluegel Tough Guys Burt Lancaster George

A Trojan virus allows someone else access to her computer. It's a lot more serious than someone simply posting junk under the name Doojable. George

Not quite. To accuse FALSELY someone of rape, etc., is slander (unless it's in a written medium, in which case it's libel). Even then, to prosecute someone for slander or libel requires that the alleged slander involve malicious intent. If someone is simply mistaken, his comments cannot be construed as slander. George

I know I'll need another quote or two. And now I've got to figure out whom Tom considers the female Keanu Reaves! :) George

I guess that the next time I drop in on somebody around breakfast time, I'd better bring tap shoes. Never know when they'll be required! George

Go ahead. I googled the line. I do remember the scene, but it wasn't Dustin Hoffman in "Kramer vs. Kramer"; it was Al Pacino in.... George

Perhaps you live on an alternate earth with a different set of definitions. A crime is an act committed or omitted in violation of a law forbidding it or commanding it and for which punishment is imposed upon conviction. (American Heritage Dictionary, 2nd ed.) The fact that someone is not punished for a crime does not mean that the act was not criminal. Murders and robberies go unsolved. Battery and rape go unpunished because the victim was intimidated or ashamed. They're still crimes, in THIS USA. George

I didn't say that I didn't get (or send) PM's. I just don't seem to be part of the "underground" here. And if the tongue-in-cheek wasn't obvious, I really don't feel like using PM's as a back-biting tool. George

WD, Although it would be swell to catch all crimes on videotape, it just doesn't work that way. If someone is raped in a back alley, is it not a crime because there were no witnesses other than the victim? George

Well, someday, maybe. I hope he spends another year at Illinois. George

Gee, now I feel as though I'm missing out on all the underground PM-ing! Either no one cares what I think, or it's all about me! :D George

It is. Go, Raf! George

Well, THAT was unpleasant! USC played a great game. Even if all the goofy ball hops hadn't gone their way, and if the Illini hadn't fumbled the ball twice inside the USC 5, Southern Cal would probably have won. It should have been a lot closer, though. It's a long wait until next season, but at least I have something to look forward to, unlike the last few years. I think the Illini will have lost the element of surprise, though. George

DS9, obviously. I remember a time travel episode, where Sisko replaces an activist who was killed. I don't know if that's enough info. (I thibnk it was the one where Dax is also lost back in the same time period. Kira and O'Brien eventully find them.) George

Four pics George

You got it, Sharon! Nice to see you around here again! George

Buddy Ebsen's longevity was particularly impressive, considering he nearly died in the production of "The Wizard of Oz." Originally cast as the Tin Man, the "costume" they used was basically sprayed-on aluminum powder. He nearly died from inflammation of the lungs. He was replaced by Jack Haley (whose makeup was fortunately of a different composition) without much fanfare. George

I would have to concur that Suda has it. I'll be gone most of today, so I can wait for her to post. George
