Mike: "You are too much the stickler on exact vocabulary." Whatever happened to "mathematical exactness and scientific precision", and "God has a purpose for everything He says, how He says it, to whom He says it..." vpw pushed being a stickler on exact vocabulary. Of course, since he was wrong, we don't have to obsess, but since you insist he was right, you're supposed to agree with him and push FOR being a stickler.

Ok, here's a trivia question with 2 parts. I think all of you know who Redd Foxx was- black comedian, black actor, starred in "Sanford and Son", etc. Redd Foxx was his stage name. 1) What was the legal name of Redd Foxx's father? 2) What was the cause of death of Redd Foxx? (These are not trick questions, just odd questions.)

BTW, Mike imagines there's a big audience of readers out there who are all in accord with Mike, and not, say, spectating a fantastic car wreck. IF such a thing were true, Mike would be doing this (imaginary) crowd a disservice by only allowing them to read his posts on the GSC. Mike would set up his own board where they could read unadulterated Mike and cheer him on and so on. Then he could focus his time and effort on THEM. That he spends the time here instead says a lot. (Mainly, that there's no "them" trying to become Mike's disciples.)

If he got the right song it's his turn- in this thread, the title is all you need. (If he did not get the right song, it is NOT his turn.) -
With the current crowd, I thought that would go faster. CORRECT!

You´re not sure which? Other than C & C, was Tommy Chong EVER in anything?

Sounds like "Who Is the Scarlet Pimpernel?". Is that right? If that's right, that really got airplay? (If so, it's all good. I would just be surprised.) -

That means you post a recognizable line from a song-often the first line so long as that is not the title- that people can try to guess just from that line. For this thread, they need only guess the song, not the artist. For this thread, part of the challenge is finding a song guessable from ONE LINE that is not the title. Since you are posting the song, it's good to look it up. Since we are guessing, we may NOT look it up. So, your turn, redrock and blues! -

My brain finally cooperated. "NATURAL WOMAN," by ARETHA FRANKLIN.

I was reminded, a few months ago, that we once discussed microwave ovens. Mike recited the internet myth that microwave ovens leak radiation. I linked the real story. AFTER that, Mike said that the link confirmed that microwave ovens are a radiation danger. I summarized the danger- according to the link (an official source) , microwave ovens may leak an inch or so past the case. So, unless you drape yourself across a microwave oven while it's running, you're safe from a radiation leak. I thought of that when he was running his lines recently on how well he grasps science.

Hello, redrock and blues. While we do welcome new players on the game threads, please check the first page of a thread for the rules. One constant is that ONE person is posting clues, and it is their turn. Everyone else must guess the answer WITHOUT LOOKING IT UP. (We are all on the honor system here.) If someone does look up the answer, then that person can't post the answer. (If their curiosity was just too much, well, that was that.) When it's confirmed they posted the correct answer, then it's that person's turn to post. Keep in mind that GUESSERS can't look things up, but if you're posting clues, you SHOULD look things up to make sure your details are correct. (Example- on the movie quotes thread, look up the quotes to make sure they are correct, so guessers have a fair chance.) If someone's correct, and announces "FREE POST!" , then anyone who logs in can immediately take the next turn and post clues. (That can be done to keep a thread moving, or change the players a little.) It's not hard in practice, and the threads are fun. -
