Maybe so, but I got it from "Sir Cedric."

One musician's greatest claim to fame is probably that he's a member of a band he neither played for nor joined. It's not true. He joined the band and played for it, through their days as " Johnny and the Moondogs" and other names before they settled on the name they made famous. Then he was canned shortly before they became famous, replaced by a member of "Rory Storm and the Hurricanes." But, he did indeed play for them in their final name, before he was fired. Which musician was this?

That's it.

Yes. The edelweiss is a symbol of Switzerland. Making a song about national pride for AUSTRIA using the edelweiss means the movie team skimped on their research.

Well, in the past, she's auctioned off the name in secret, said that one of the letters in his name was "r" and said it wasn't about anybody in particular- which is a heck of a thing to say AFTER you've given letters in the name of a nonexistent person, and collected money for the name. Old rumors put it as either Mick Jagger (less likely) or Warren Beatty (more likely.) I'll go with WB.

Paul Bettany the Knight's Tale Heath Ledger

"Let me tell you how it will be"

If you hadn't picked the chorus, I think I would have been stumped.

Yes. Too easy?

Yes. "I'm Larry, this is my brother Darryl, and this is my other brother Darryl." The Stratford Inn had a historical significance, but not one they'd hoped for. That was tricky when women came to celebrate its designation as a historical site- because their mothers had worked there, whatever it was at the time....

-This movie features a song with connotations of national pride. It was made up for the movie, and the country it was made up for doesn't really know the song. That's possibly because it uses a symbol a DIFFERENT country connects with connotations of national pride. -One actor was trying to get a sense of his character. So, he went to the Salzburg mountains to ask his nephew what he was like. According to the nephew, he was the most boring man he'd ever met. -The principal actress almost turned the role down. At first glance, she thought the role was too similar to her (eponymous) character in the film she had just finished. -When this film was first released on home video, it stayed on the charts for over 250 weeks, almost five years.

Tom Petty, and I THINK the title is "You Don't Know How It Feels."

I'm thinking of 2 possible actors. I'm going with "PETER O'TOOLE."

The Green Hornet Cameron Diaz The Mask

-In this show, there was a sort-of economy of names. Out of the ensemble, two of them- who appeared in the same scenes- had the same name. -One of the primary locations of the show turned out to have a history- during the time of the American Revolution, it was used as a house of ill-repute.

"Superman II."

I think it's cute that opposition to this thread is confined to "I refuse to read the thread or post a rebuttal on a thread whose subject interests me greatly, but I want to debate a factual point. Not any that actually matter, I want to call into question what year Mrs W said vpw first claimed the 1942 promise." Nothing on any significant point, not on anything that's beyond any reasonable refutation. Usually, that means the rest of the points are unassailable. Why else would someone FIXATE on the exact year vpw began expounding his lie, and not whether or not it was a lie, and why it's so obvious it's a lie? But this way, someone can PRETEND they refuted something of substance, and flee the thread, never acknowledging the rather obvious point that they're now basing their life on something PROVEN to be a lie. "I'd rather have an ugly truth rather than a pretty lie." - Me.

*staggers in with a lampshade on his head* Wow, now THAT was a party! Oh, sorry Twinky. I didn't realize you'd posted again, since you said you weren't interested, so I thought the thread never updated. Since I have a multi-national family, I've got a few teams to root for- up to 3 of them, depending on who qualifies for the World Cup. If all 3 qualify, then the first week gets really, really busy. If they all make the round of 16, it can stay busy, too. Worse, if they play each other, then we watch on separate TVs then celebrate whichever team moves on. In answer to your question, both the US and England moved on to the round of 16, washing out Wales in the process. It used to be said that "Americans will never embrace Soccer." I think that's been changing over my lifetime, especially the last 20 years. The US' soccer league is looking serious, and we now have US players who have been scouted to Europe, and normally play on European leagues. So, each World Cup, the US seems to be doing better, which I'd expect with more of them playing in the European league (since the US league is still improving.) Over the next several World Cups, I'm expecting the US to provide some excellent matches, and to work their way into the round of 8, at least, possibly the final 4.

I'll get back to this soon. In the meantime, have a happy...whatever.

Wild swing here... "The Saint"????? I've read several of the books, but the movie was only vaguely inspired by the book series.

I should have jumped in with Geena Davis, but I've been running around like crazy. Especially the last 14 hours or so with all the partying. So, the neighborhood has settled down, I've gotten some sleep, and can answer. In this case, let's see... The Producers Will Ferrell Anchorman-the Legend of Ron Burgundy

Based on the "same clothes so footage could be reused", I'm going with the live-action show "The Adventures of Superman." (That black-and-white one.)

Christopher Plummer?

It also played to his strengths. You can plagiarize your way into faking a TEACHING ministry, but you can't plagiarize your way into a HEALING ministry. He could take the work of others, stand up, and with the skill of the barker fake a teaching ministry because it looked like he was really a teacher. He couldn't use the skills of a barker and plagiarizing the writings of others to fake HEALINGS. That's often been a weakness of twi, and some point to that as why its founder wore glasses when he supposedly could believe for perfect eyesight, and he died YOUNG of extensive cancer as the result of decades of chain smoking and heavy drinking when he supposedly could believe for perfect health.

This may be a new idea TO YOU, but it's an old idea to nearly 100% of everyone who ever took a pfal class, because they all left twi and did something else. Many left to join smaller, decentralized groups, if only for a time. So, let the people who care more about the organization than about what God said and what the Bible ACTUALLY said have the buildings and pay the rent, and the rest went off to serve God somewhere else. This is an old idea that goes all the way back to the book of Acts and the School of Tyrannus.
