This is for Rhino I'll post a real one tomorrow George

I know I've heard it before, too; but I'm not sure who did it. James Darren? George Oh, and Sudo's birth certificate is a clay tablet!

Just to show that I have no problem with answering: "Second Hand Lions" (with Michael Caine and Bob Duvall, cool flic) George

Tough Guys Kirk Douglas Spartacus George

"Down in the Boondocks" by Billy Joe Royal George

"You hit the wrong ship!" "It wasn't my fault!" "Well then whose fault is it, the torpedo's? You're supposed to tell it what to do!" And a correction of the previous quote "Specify targets." "The Romulan Ships!" "Yes, yes! The Romulan ships!" George

Indeed. The first quote was from Alex Karras during a broadcast from Detroit or Green Bay. He cleverly caught himself in mid-cliche. Of course, it wouldn't raise an eyebrow today. Go, Wasway! George

Being the sentimental slush that I am, I always get a little choked up when the Red Baron wishes Snoopy a Merry Christmas. I'm reminded of the stories from WWI and WWII where American and German soldiers would smoke and sing together on Christmas. Unfortunately, they would then resume killing each other the next day. Even as Snoopy knew he would confront the Red Baron again. George

Well, how about you, Rhino? Are you going to dodge it, too? George

Harlow Leslie Nielsen The Naked Gun George

George (I was tempted to do this one with all Dilbert characters.)

I'll post one later today. George

Still no Thsi will make it pretty easy: "Are you ready to RUMBLE?" George

"Please identify targets." "The Romulan Ships!" "Yes, yes! The Romulan ships!" George

HOWL LIDDY INN "Holiday Inn." George

Either would be fine. George

No to all. If it helps, Howard is the person's real name. George

If I'm not mistaken, it's NG episode "Armament of Freedom." A computerized weapon system continues to attack the Enterprise, upgrading its attack each time. Picard finally gets it to stop by offering to buy it. Geordi commands a young crew in the battle bridge, having sent the main saucer section off to get help. George

There are about five Twilight Zone episodes I remember fairly well, and that was one of them. "It's colder than a witch's -- uh -- elbow in here, Howard!" George

Okay. Burgess Meredith loves to read. Some sort of catastrophe happens (nuclear attack?) while he's in a library basement, or something. He comes out, the only one (on earth?) alive, with "all the time in the world" to read his precious books. Then he breaks his glasses. George

Sounds like the Twilight Zone episode about the watch that could stop time. George

PIER POOP GABOR CHICAGO? Here we go again! George

That's "Green Lantern." I did send a link to the CNN web page about it to my college roommate, also a big comic book fan. But I didn't think there would be enough interest at GS to put it here. If anyone's interested, here's the story. Martin Nodell created the original (1940's) Green Lantern. I grew up with the revised (60's) version. I really feel disappointed that I didn't go to see Gil Kane, the artist of that 60's GL, when he appeared at a comic book convention in Houston. It was a bad ice storm, and I decided in favor of safety. Kane died a couple of years later. George

It was, in fact, the Temptations. I really like that version of "White Christmas." Their "Silent Night" is pretty cool, too. George

Motown is correct. The group is more famous for soul and R&B. And it's not the Four Tops. George
