  1. Remember when you could actually buy a ticket for a doubleheader? Now, to increase revenue, of course, there are none scheduled. And if they have to play a doubleheader because of a rainout, they'll play a day game, empty the park out, and play a night game. George
  2. Ballparks I've watched baseball in 1.) That no longer exist -- Comiskey Park, the Astrodome, Busch stadium (the first), Candlestick Park 2.) That are around -- Minute Maid Park, Fenway Park, Wrigley Field (the one in Chicago, of course). My favorite: Wrigley Field (but I'll never go to a night game there.) Minute Maid tries to emulate the old-time parks, and it's pretty, though whoever thought that putting a flagpole in deep centerfield (on a hill, no less!) should be shot. The games I saw in Fenway and Candlestick were both late fall night games, so it was more about survival than baseball! George
  3. Seems to me, you put it together pretty well. You're up, waysider. George
  4. At sixty-five years old, My mother, God rest her soul, Couldn’t understand why the only man, She had ever loved had been taken. Reality came around, And without so much as a mere touch, Cut me into little pieces. Leaving me to doubt, all about God and His mercy (These quotes aren't together or necessarily in this sequence in the song.) George
  5. Okay, then, then. (Where did Son of the Master go?) Martin Landau Ed Wood Jeff Jones George
  6. While passing the time, I happened to hit a site about the women of Star Trek. By chance, the Deanna Troi entry had the quote above. So, now I Know what episode it is (and who the Doctor is). I didn't actually "google" the quotes though. If no one else chimes in, I'll answer. George
  7. I'm running out of doctors. :) I'll just have to wait for other clues. George
  8. OK, how about Dr. Selar (or maybe even Dr. Graves) in "The Schizoid Man"? George
  9. I only watched this show occasionally until this episode. This quate sold me: "Life is like a box of chocolates. Cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint craft that you mindlessly wolf down and there's nothing else left to eat. Sure... once in a while there's a peanut buttercup or an English toffee.. but they're gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. They end up nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. If you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is an empty box with useless brown paper wrappers." George
  10. I'll hate to find out that I've actually seen this and don't remember it. Geoge
  11. Hmm. The only time this would make sense with Dr. Crusher would be "Encounter at Far Point." So that's my next guess, though I doubt it's correct. George
  12. I say that when Bonds is within a homer or two of Aaron's record that he should be beaned every time he comes up. And, assuming he's not unconscious, bean him again at first base. (I always thought intentional walks were a waste of three pitches.) George
  13. I can't believe I didn't remember "Batman"! I believe it should be hiway's or Raf's turn, but I do have a quote I've been waiting to use... George
  14. Yeah, the Ernest T. Bass reference at the end was obvious, though I knew what it was from the beginning. In "Return to Mayberry," (the finest "reunion" show ever, IMHO) one of my favorite scenes is when Andy goes to see the Darlings and we have this exchange: "Hey, Sheriff! Haven't seen you in a while." "I've been out of town for twenty years." "Well, I reckon that might PARTLY explain it." George
  15. The last exchange was probably between Data and Dr. Pulaski. Is this the NG episode where she and Data attempt to aid people on another ship and she contracts some aging disease? The Enterprise crew were able to save her by running her through the transporter, but first they had to find some of her DNA. They get it from a hair on her hairbrush, since she's never used the transporter before. George
  16. Sudo, you just beat everything, you know that? ;) George
  17. About the only two characters I can think of who would bust up furniture are Worf and BeLanna. I think this is a Voyager episode, though I could also see that exchange between Worf and Dax. Hmmm... George
  18. Close enough. At Zek's request, they went to rescue Moogie from the Jem' Hadar. "The Magnificent Ferengi." Go ahead, WW. George
  19. "First and 10" was correct. Wasway's looks like "Wheel of Burton." :) I'm pretty sure it's not "MadTV," so I don't get Tom's reference. George
  20. Reality came around, And without so much as a mere touch, Cut me into little pieces. Leaving me to doubt, all about God and His mercy George
  21. It's amazing how well the words fit the melody once someone gives you a hint. "Moondance" by Van Morrison. George
