Get out! Apparently, I'm less familiar with the lyrics than I thought.

Hay and Silent Bob, with a car that may have broken down on the highway behind them. It's probably "DOGMA."

"Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week." "Change your stars and live a better life than I have." "It is strange to think, I haven't seen you since a month. I have seen the new moon, but not you. I have seen sunsets and sunrises, but nothing of your beautiful face. The pieces of my broken heart are so small that they can be passed through the eye of a needle. I miss you like the sun misses the flower; like the sun misses the flower in the depths of winter. Instead of beauty to direct its light to, the heart hardens like the frozen world your absence has banished me to. I next compete in the city of Paris, I will find it empty and in the winter if you are not there. Hope guides me, it is what gets me through the day and especially the night. The hope that after you're gone from my sight, it will not be the last time that I look upon you." "You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting. In what world could you possibly beat me? Come back when you're worthy." "What a pair we make, hmm? Both trying to hide who we are. Both unable to do so. Your men love you. If I knew nothing else about you, that would be enough. But you also tilt when you should withdraw." "Father, I am afraid, I won't know the way back home." "Don't be foolish, William, you just follow your feet." "Say something about her breasts." "Yeah, you miss her breasts." "Her breasts." "Ye... yes, you... you could, umm... umm... but I... I would tend to look above her breasts, William." "Well I... I miss her throat." "Uh, still higher really, toward the heavens." "The moon at least, her breasts were not that impressive." "Love should end with hope. My husband, God rest him, told me something I’ll never forget. Hope guides me. It is what gets me through the day and especially the night. The hope that after you’re gone from my sight it will not be the last time I look upon you." "I'm Richard the Lionheart. Pleased to meet you. No, wait a minute, I'm Charlemagne. No, I'm Saint John the Baptist!" "All right, hold your tongue sir, or lose it." "Now you see THAT I do believe, Sir Ulrich." "It's just as well, they told me I was daft for even asking." "Who?" "The other armorers." "Did they say I couldn't do it because I'm a woman? " "No, they said you were great with horseshoes, but sh1te with armour. The fact that you were a woman wasn't even mentioned." "You know, I write, with ink and parchment. For a penny I’ll scribble you anything you want. From summons, decrees, edicts, warrants, patents of nobility. I’ve even been know to jot down a poem or two if the muse descends." "I don’t understand women." "Nor do I. But they understand us. Well, maybe not you." "Yes, behold my lord Ulrich, the rock, the hard place, like a wind from Guilderland he sweeps by blown far from his homeland in search of glory and honor, we walk... in the garden of his turbulence!" "Sir Ulrick. What are you wearing to the ball tonight?" "Er... nothing..." "Well, we shall cause a sensation, for I'll dress to match."

So it's Human's turn.

Um, not exactly, AFAIK. The only song I know that mentions the roadies was Jackson Browne's "The Load Out Song. " "Now the seats are all empty. Let the roadies take the stage. They're the first to come and the last to leave, working for that minimum wage...." It's a simple song, and the piano melody feels a little like the melancholy of an empty theater after a successful show. As for this song, it's not ringing any bells.

Good evening, Mister Orostegui. I would be happy to help you- by directing you to more information, and by answering questions and things like that. Before I start that whole process, I think it's important to know how good your English is. Are you able to read pages of English text without a translator? Are you only able to read them with Google Translate or something similar? I can give you much more help in English than I can in Spanish. Feel free to contact me privately with a "private message" ("pm"). (You can click on my name, then on the "message" button on my information page to do that.) Just in case none of that was understood..... Buenas noches, Señor Orostegui. Puedo ayudarle alegremente. Puedo dirigirle a más información, y puedo responder preguntas y otras cosas. Ante todo, yo creo que es importante saber su nivel de Ingles. Puede leer paginas de texto en Ingles sin un traductor? Puede leer Ingles solamente con la ayuda de un programa como Google Translate? Puedo ayudarle más facilmente y con más informacion en Ingles que en Español (o castellano). Puede contactarme privadamente con un "mensaje privado" ("pm") cuando quiera. (Haga un "clic" sobre mi nombre, y luego un clic en "message" en la pagina con mi informacion.)

Some actors who appeared in this movie: Mr T Chaka Khan Joe Walsh Steven Spielberg Paul Reubens (aka Peewee Herman) Frank Oz

That line was an ADDED line, not a CHANGED line. The US version had/has no lines there. How high does the grass grow, George?

This TVland-era syndicated show has aired in different countries. When it aired (airs???) in Germany, the dubbing track has some added words. To be specific, all the time, the characters apparently say "The grass grows this high!" A common saying at the time of the story was commonly ALTERED- in Germany- and in English would have meant "medicinal herb", which had absolutely no relevance to what the characters actually said. (Why?) Of the main characters of the show, one had previously been a bookkeeper and the other the president of a toy company before the show and their current "occupations." 2 characters once traveled to London, and several traveled to Paris. The fake snow was sometimes white salt, but later it was all just white paint. Nicknames for the "jolly jokers" included "Goldilocks", "Papa Bear", and "Little Red Riding Hood", apparently all assigned arbitrarily because there seemed to be no pattern to it. "What is this man doing here????" Actors who appeared during the series' run included Gavin Mac Leod, William Christopher, Alice Ghostley, Hans Conried, Joe Tata, and Harvey Keitel. Really.

*looks it up, disqualifying himself for the round* I've never HEARD of this movie.

Apparently, this is as much as I've got. (I've never actually listened to "Breakfast in America" so I can't call up a memory of what I've heard.)

There's a few movies that Stanley Kowalski might have been in. "On The Waterfront?"

Seriously? All I ever knew was the name and that Burt Reynolds was in it. I guessed based on what movies it WASN'T. Ok, give me overnight to catch up on all the threads.

Ok, the last 2 sentences rang a bell. Having read Drew Carey's book, "Dirty Jokes and Beer:, I remember how he wore his dark-rimmed glasses when he wanted to be recognized, but contact lenses or wire-frames when he did not. (He could certainly have had lasik after that.) He also mentioned the actress who played Mimi was actually very nice and nothing like her character in real life. So, this is "THE DREW CAREY SHOW."

*wild swing* "Sharky's Machine" ?

Before I forget, you can't really understand twi without trying to understand vpw. (there's several threads about him, this is a severe abbreviation.) Victor Paul Wierwille was a narcissist and sociopath who concluded that ministry was a relatively soft life compared to his other options, that also got you respect. He worked with a local Christian magazine, and probably plagiarized their contents for his Sunday sermons. About a year into his work as a pastor, he FIRST believed the Bible was the Word of God- according to him. Over the next few decades, he had lukewarm success, except when he plagiarized. Someone recommended EW Bullinger's books to him, and he bought them all and began teaching as if he independently came to the same conclusions as Bullinger. He met JE Stiles, who led him into the modern practice called "speaking in tongues" (as practiced by twi and all its splinters/offshoots to this day.) He bought Stiles' book and retyped it, claiming he wrote it. He took BG Leonard's class on the Hoiy Spirit ("Gifts of the Spirit") and then began teaching it as his own class, "Receiving the Holy Spirit Today" (later "Power For Abundant Living", divided into 3 classes and supplemented with Bullinger and Stiles to fill them out.) When he read that there were counter-establishment Christian hippies in California, he went there.(1969-1971.) He meant to hijack them all into his group if he could, and to try to get some of the "free-love" that hippies were supposedly into. (He also tried to convince J1m D00p that God Almighty was alright with ORGIES.) He managed to convince some of them that he had a special connection to God and that's why he knew everything "he taught" (that Bullinger, Stiles and Leonard taught.) Shortly after that, he began to tell the story that in 1943 God Almighty made a special promise to him that God would teach him if he'd teach others. (The exact claim is in other threads that have discussed it.) He also added that God confirmed this promise with a miraculous snowstorm. He got a legitimate Masters in Theology from Princeton Theological Seminary. He then went on to get a "Doctorate" from an unaccredited degree mill. twi's growth in numbers can be traced ENTIRELY to the influx of Christian hippies who were legit Christians and recruited people to twi. vpw gradually added all sorts of adulation for himself- insisting everyone call him "Doctor", teaching that you stand when a teacher approaches the pulpit/podium to teach, having them play "Hail to the Chief" when he entered the room, having twi buy a plane and calling it "Ambassador One" (a la "Air Force One"), and so on. Many pages have been written on him. vpw taught that positive believing (faith) brought positive results, and negative believing (doubt, worry, fear) brought negative results, regardless of the content of the belief. He also taught that cancer, having a life of its own, was devil-spirit (demon) based in origin. Guess who died of cancer in 1985? Yes, the man who put forth that he was some sort of Super-Believer, who failed to blast away the cancer cells with his Believing-Vision! vpw had personally selected loy craig martindale (lcm) as his successor, despite others being more qualified in one or MANY ways. The sole reason was that lcm was fanatically loyal to him and was convinced vpw's most conniving lies were really Revelation From God Almighty. Between 1985 and 1989, a number of things happened. vpw was increasingly ignored in his final weeks. He went to Scotland, to his other fanatically loyal drone, chris geer. After vpw died, cg confronted twi with "The Passing of the Patriarch", a 40-page paper that made no specifics whatsoever, but claimed that twi had problems, and they were ENTIRELY due to them ignoring vpw and in effect, killing him by making him sad. A number of lcm's peers started either to find out about rapes in twi either by vpw, lcm, both, or their cadre and spoke out, or decided they could run a religious group as well as lcm. For one or the other reason, there were more confrontations in twi, where a few groups split off from twi. In 1988-1989, lcm DEMANDED an Oath of Loyalty to himself, first from all the leadership, then the membership. Any answer other than blind obedience meant any leader was kicked out. This resulted in about 80% of the current leaders leaving, with about 80% of the current membership leaving WITH them. Some of them looked to geer for oversight, some didn't, but eventually, they all decided to do their own thing. Since then, there was ANOTHER drop in members when lcm was forced to step down from twi office by lawyers and stuff (the exact specifics are in sealed court documents as to who demanded it, a judge, or the lawyers for twi insisted on it) . Every once in a while, another handful of current leaders leaves twi and brings some of the current members with them. Right now, the actual numbers of twi membership is puny. There's perhaps as many as 3000 but possibly as few as a few HUNDRED now. Old members age out and are ignored once twi can no longer exploit them. (Thus, forming their own group as a golden parachute.) Every once in a while, a handful of the youngsters actually think they can REFORM twi. But twi was never good then turned bad- and it was designed to concentrate power autocratically. They think that EVERYBODY who tried before them were somehow deficient, but THEY will succeed. Ah, the optimism of youth.... There's relatively few people, who are soaked for a tithe. There's the existing assets, all organized to stay close to HQ. And there's an organization set up to charge members for everything they do- it's rather profitable in that sense, financially. The people at the top are enjoying all the perks while they can.

Hello. I'm old here. :) "Never-been-way" people are welcome here, both to learn and generally to socialize. 1) The Way International (twi) WAS once plagued by a lot of corruption. It still IS, but it was also. The corruption was a lot more blatant before, and a lot of it has been exposed. A lot of it has not. (This group still says gays are a bad thing, and the current lead, Rosalie (Rosa-Lie, Rozilla) is one. Rfr has been in charge and prefers to have others be the visible face while she wields the actual power in the group. The group APPEARS considerably better. That's largely due to changes mandated by the group's lawyers, and things changed because they were exposed here. They're still corrupt and nobody wants to work for them and they underpay ALMOST all the employees. On the other hand, 1 or 2 people at the top (Rfr, Donna) have the benefit of VERY generous salaries, but slave labor as well. (Rfr's long had twi employees assigned to work on her boat and home, cleaning, cooking, etc despite that being, AFAIK, illegal if she's caught.) 2) We understand trying to disguise yourself. We nicknamed "the WayGB" those employees at twi who have been assigned to read over all the posts here and try to figure out who each poster is. Some are easier to guess than others. 3) If you wish to message me privately, you can do so. (I will attempt to answer questions honestly.) 4) We understand being scared of this group. Just because a lot of the gun-toting nuts aren't there anymore doesn't mean the group isn't toxic and so on. 5) There's many threads you can read up on. I have a few suggestions. For terminology, there's "Wayspeak" and "Wayspeak and Greasespot-speak." https://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/topic/4735-wayspeak-greasespot-cafe-dictionary/ https://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/topic/4734-way-speak-and-greasespot-speak/ There's a general introduction in "The Newbie's Guide to Greasespot Cafe Forums." https://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/topic/24179-the-newbies-guide-to-greasespot-cafe-forums/ Of historical interest are the Greasespot Cafe Documents and Audio Archives. https://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/topic/24519-greasespot-cafe-documents-and-audio-archives/ If you're interested in certain time-periods, there's some threads with some overviews (generally ending around 1990.) The information after is a bit more sporadic because so many people left in 1988-1989, and more left a few years later when craig/lcm (then-president) was sued for rape-molestation type stuff. There's a few threads about specific people, including Rfr. There's a lot of threads about the social activities and sociological discussion of same. There's threads discussing their doctrine, and some of their easily-corrected errors were discussed- and in some cases, defended by people who left the group but still can't shake the conviction that if victor paul wierwille (plagiarizing rapist who founded twi and plagiarized its initial classes) said it, it MUST be true no matter how obviously it can be shot down once one actually tries.

"Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week." "Change your stars and live a better life than I have." "It is strange to think, I haven't seen you since a month. I have seen the new moon, but not you. I have seen sunsets and sunrises, but nothing of your beautiful face. The pieces of my broken heart are so small that they can be passed through the eye of a needle. I miss you like the sun misses the flower; like the sun misses the flower in the depths of winter. Instead of beauty to direct its light to, the heart hardens like the frozen world your absence has banished me to. I next compete in the city of Paris, I will find it empty and in the winter if you are not there. Hope guides me, it is what gets me through the day and especially the night. The hope that after you're gone from my sight, it will not be the last time that I look upon you."

I get "the Obvious Song" confused with some other song a lot, as titles go. Hm. If it's NOT Frampton, it's someone I confuse with Frampton..... um, SUPERTRAMP! The band is Supertramp. This song is probably off "Breakfast in America". *thinks* Is this SUPERTRAMP with THE LOGICAL SONG? (If not, I'm stumped.)
