I'll have to cogitate on this on a while... George P.S. Glad to have you in the game!

George

Yeah. I looked for a "Cone of ..." thread and didn't see it. No fair using another title! George

You are correct! (UP + DOWN + SATYR + Doris DAY + Ted KNIGHT = UPTOWN SATURDAY NIGHT.) Your turn! George

If you think you know it, give it a shot! (Unlike the Nostalgia Thread, we usually don't keep stringing along until someone gets it, though Raf and I might hold back to let others get involved.) George

I guess I'm up, then. Try this: George

Kathy, I believe it's Raf's turn. I think your puzzle is "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes"; but I'll wait to see what Raf wants to do before posting further. George

I don't know how Raf posted links to the "cones,"but I had to point out that there was indeed another tropical storm in the Atlantic. My stepson mentioned it, and I thought he was kidding; but there it was. Zeta! It actually achieved (weak) tropical storm status on Saturday. I imagine that that's the latest Atlantic storm on record. Just think -- if it started two days later it would have been a 2006 storm, and probably the EARLIEST on record! George

Familiar, but I can't place it. George

George A's list of Mel Brooks movies reminds me of the great stuff Woody Allen did before he got serious. "What's Up, Tiger Lily?" "Love and Death" and "Sleeper" are terrific; "Bananas" and "Take the Money and Run" are less do, but still great movies. George

Raf has never seen "Traxx." He's just ticked 'cause I used it in "Name that Flick." It really is worth a look. George

It looks more like mud, but I'm going to guess "Quicksand." George

That MEANS, Rick, that it's YOUR TURN again! George

Pirate was right. I assume the bolded words are his clue. George

Here's another: Will you look at that! Look how she moves! It's like Jell-O on springs. Must have some sort of built-in motor or something. I tell you, it's a whole different sex! George

With a ton of cable movie networks, I don't do the Netflix thing. For classic Marilyn, "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," "Bus Stop," and "The Seven Year Itch" are well known. I remember seeing "Let's Make Love" many years ago and thought it was excellent. I saw "It Happened One Night" (with Claudette Colbert's famous hitchhiking scene) during a baseball strike. (TBS was running movies in lieu of Braves games.) Clark Gable and Claudette had a marvelous chemistry. I tend to like oddball comedies. Not exactly classics (both are from the 80's), "Amazon Women on the Moon" and "Traxx" are hysterical. George

I don't know, but it was cool! George

Since Sharon is on vacation, try this oldie but goodie: Real diamonds! They must be worth their weight in gold! George

It was about 68 and sunny here. We had all four kids, the grandson, the son-in-law, the fiance, and the fiancee in our little house, so there was a LOT of warmth. But your picture reminds me of LAST year's Christmas, with its record 12 inch snowfall. (It was a record for coastal Texas. I saw a LOT worse when I lived in Illinois and Boston.) God bless you, Sudo. God bless us, everyone. George

Yes. George

Another clue: You magnificent bastard! I read your book! George

Adam Sandler's "Hannukah Song"? George

There's a fine line between "naughty" and "nice"! George

I believe the line following the one you gave was: "I smoke them. HE Smokes them!" Anyway, here's my clue. Go on back down there. You're the only son of a bitch that seems to know what he's doing around here. George

I've got to agree with Kathy on this one. :unsure: George
