  1. The next one shouldn't take long. "Scooby-dooby-doo."
  2. I know who John Adams was. Joe Gould only makes me think of Chester Gould, the Dick Tracy guy. And the name Bob Zmuda makes me think of Andy Kaufman and Tony Clifton, but that's all I've got.
  3. "SHOUT"., by "Tears for Fears." Not a one-hit-wonder, they also scored with "Sowing the Seeds of Love", not to mention "Everybody Wants to Rule the World."
  4. I'm caught up on Arrow and Flash until this past Sunday. I'm 1 episode behind on LoT and just finished Supergirl. (I'm 1 behind on Gotham & seriously behind on Agent Carter and MAOS. We'll catch up on those during the slow season.) I'm pretty sure I know what's in the pod. BTW, anyone remember the word "Omegahedron?" I bet Helen Slater does. Can't they just put Jimmy in ONE bow tie, or make a reference to him having given them up completely? As far as Arrow goes, I'm seriously disappointed in Ollie that the stone was all still intact. I SO expected the smaller keystone to be a FAKE and for the real one to have been pulverized and scattered as pebbles in faraway places. Personally, I think the "Genesis" plan sounds STUPID. If you want to clear an area and leave it open for moving in, then a LIMITED chemical strike and explosive strike, coupled with The Undertaking's earthquake machine, would be the way to go. Hard radiation ruins the target, and if anyone thought of biological warfare, those things will eventually get past any security AND mutate so inoculation will be marginally useful at best. So, hit the real estate without disease or radiation, and you can use the land later.
  5. Jessica Alba Fantastic Four Chris Evans
  6. This was the one-hit wonder, Sly Fox, with "Let's Go All the Way." FREE POST.
  7. It is. You named the show- "That Girl." It is your turn.
  8. "Sitting with the thinker Trying to work it out. It's a traffic jam of the brain Makes you want to scream and shout. Presidential party. No one wants to dance. Looking for a new star To put you in a trance." "Workin' in a factory Eight days a week. Try to make dollar D*, what a beat. Cartoon capers Happen in reality. Rich man, poor man Livin' in fantasy." "Livin' in New York, It looks like an apple core (apple core). Asphalt jungle Got to be a man of war (man of war). California dreamers Sinkin' in the sand (The sand, the sand) The Hollywood Squares are Living in Disney Land."

  10. I've neither seen this line in any movie, nor does it remind me of any movie I have not seen. (Like the rant from "Network.")
  11. *blinks* Was this Daddy Dewdrop's "Chick-A-Boom"? And don't you just love it?
  12. Dr Clove said he could go that evening to try to detect a spirit-and if one was present- to perform an exorcism. So, he said he would arrive at midnight, and to have prepared for him "Bay Leaves, cloves of garlic, incense, and half a chicken." "Half a chicken?" "Sometimes, around midnight, I get a little hungry..." When midnight arrived, Oscar arrived just ahead of Dr Clove, but Felix had been reading up and preparing. He wore a black robe, with a necklace of garlic. He had a bowl of flower petals or something. He wandered around, and portentiously flung petals around intending to produce some result, along with a "Ha!" as he did so. When the doorbell rang, Oscar shuffled over like Igor to answer it. Clove mumbled "Good evening-where is the chicken?" and then busted out laughing when he saw Felix. "Pardon me, Mister Unger. How a man dresses in the privacy of his home is his own business. I am merely laughing because you look funny." "This is for the exorcism!" "Mister Unger, that costume is used only for cases of Demonic Possession, and sometimes for Trick-or-Treat, but it doesn't work here." It was SO one of of my favorite moments of the series. ================================= Were you thinking of ANDY KAUFMAN here?
  13. Good reminder. As vpw saw it, the Presidency of twi was PROPERLY the BIRTHRIGHT of his bloodline, no matter how distant. So, if it wasn't any of his sons (apparently, JP stayed clear of all this nonsense, so that's just Donnie) then he needed a PLACEHOLDER PRESIDENT until one of his grandsons (never a granddaughter, always a male, of course) was old enough to be crowned king of the castle. I imagine that his view as EXPENDABLE of ALL of the inner cadre was more than a mild insult to them all. Of course, in hindsight, I'm sure at least SOME are thankful that was so. (DWBH if nobody else.)
  14. If that's not "SCENT OF A WOMAN," let's see.... I don't know, "SCARFACE"?
  15. That's him. He had a number of roles in both movies and television. I remember him for 2 roles on "the Odd Couple" more than for "Batman." He played Dr Clove, the exorcist, and the manager for the landlord, Mr Lovelace.
  16. *checks* It was definitely "DONNIE BRASCO." He answered it.
  17. Edwin Flagg William Howard Taft Big Sam Hollis Deputy Alvin Potts High Priest Sorak 'Diamond' Jim Adiposo Professor William McElroy/King Tut Sir Cecil Seabrook Count Mario Vincenzo Robespierre Manzeppi Dr Clove Hugo Lovelace
  18. I can picture Pacino saying that, so I'll try "SCENT OF A WOMAN."
  19. It is not that actor-who did die in 1977. No idea who "Lodge" is, since Sebastian Cabot was "Charles Sebastian Thomas Cabot", with no "Lodge" in his name. BTW, the next name will be the giveaway. Me, I could have gotten it from the last 2 names I posted, but only if they were together. (This is not a list with any names added...)

  20. AFAIK, AA is anonymous, thus the name "Alcoholics Anonymous." However, we have the example of a chronic alcoholic who died of cancer to the eye AND LIVER. (Between the alcohol and chronic tobacco abuse, we have exposure of the liver to something known to damage it, and something known to cause cancer.) We have the example of someone who plagiarized everything he came across- who seems to have plagiarized AA. That's not an eyewitness account, but the circumstantial evidence is sufficient for most people to connect the dots there- except for the usual "wierwille was a giant among men and you all suck for pointing out all his issues" crowd.
  21. No. And for a moment, I was scared you got it by remembering who William McElroy was. BTW, this actor passed away in 1982.
