  1. "Spanglish" is not correct. Don't speak too soon, WW! George
  2. Chatty, Are you taking Canadian drugs? :D George
  3. "Hablo Ingles?" "Yes, you speak English." George
  4. I know YOU don't hate to post pics, so I'm not sure why you're lollygagging, but I'll give it to you, Raf. For the uninitiate, it's "Amazon Women on the Moon." ("women nun" = women on) George
  5. Sudo, I guess I'm a day late, but not a dollar short! Enjoy the concert!! George
  6. That's an acceptable substitute. George
  7. My guess is that it's an mp3 file, not a wmv or wav. George One last Bat-Fink item: this pic of B-F and Karate. George
  8. Okay, then. Pirate, you're up! George
  9. "nun" is correct. The last pic is showing up fine for me. Can the rest of you see it? George
  10. There are times when I miss Chicago. Winter isn't one of them. The last time I was home for Christmas (about 20 years ago) it was 25 below with a wind chill of 85 below! My family is welcome to visit ME for Christmas, but unless someone in the family dies, they won't see me in Chicago in December or January again! Seriously, graduation is a GOOD thing, and your daughter will be fine. George
  11. Well, not brilliant, but doable. George
  12. I'll come up with something brilliant tonight. George
  13. Okay, fine. Since hiway didn't know and Steve! isn't around anymore (growing up near Chicago when I did, he might have seen this EARLY Saturday mornings), the answer is Bat-Fink! Bat-Fink was actually a wingless bat. He had an Asian sidekick named Karate. (How blissfully un-PC we were!) Karate's dad was a blacksmith who made Bat-Fink steel wings. Whenever someone would shoot at him, Bat-Fink would curl his wing in front and use the line above. (Except for the time he was shot with an amnesia ray. Then it was, "Your thing-a-ma-jig cannot harm me; my whatchacallits are like a something of, er, you know!") He also drove the "Batillac," which was equiped with a "thermonuclear, plutonium-insulated, (fill in the blank) shield. As silly as The Tick, and pre-dated him by about forty years. George
  14. Looks like we need more help, Sharon! George
  15. I think Tom (who clearly hates posting pics) is stalling, so I'll jump in with "Pocahontas." (Not a bad puzzle, actually, though I wouldn't have got it without the hints.) George

    Chestnuts

    For those of you just tuning in, my avatar was Batman until I found the Green Lantern pic I like. Anyway, drawing on a memory from forty years ago, Grandma and I would actually roast the chestnuts over a fire in the fireplace in a kind of wire basket. I don't recall any particular amount of time, but th chestnuts were hot and tender when done. It was probably trial-and-error. George
  17. Here's one that probably only hiway29 will get (if anyone): What cartoon character used the following phrase at least once an episode: Your weapons cannot harm me; my wings are like a shield of steel! George
  18. Rick, Your song is definitely a Herb Alpert tune. I'm pretty sure it's the one about a Mexican form of transportation! ;) George
  19. Got me stumped, too, unless we're using non-English words (hearts = amar): "Amarcord"? George
  20. I doubt that you could get ANYTHING on your list from Way Productions. My guess is that all of the people are "persona non grata" and all evidence of their existences has been expunged. George
  21. Hey George. Click the following link and see if you can't find one. http://images.google.com/images?q=green+lantern&hl=en Rick Thanks for the tip, Bluzey! I didn't know I could just add a pic from my computer. I wonder if there are any copyright concerns? George
  22. A lab I used to work in had fume hoods so loud we used to call them "the cone of silence"! Someone standing next to you would talk, and you could see his lips move but not hear a word! George
