Hello. Here's my general advice for new people. http://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/index.php?showtopic=7913 You may perhaps be surprised that many things you were unaware of were in full effect during the 80s. I certainly was. However, the evidence WAS there if I'd known where to look. Many things have been uncovered that twi did their best to bury. Many of us have some good memories of time in twi. However, most of us with good memories of time in twi now have concluded that the good times we had were paid for by horrible things done to some of our brethren in Christ. You were scarred for life? Great-neither was I. However, that does not excuse the crimes performed, and the harms inflicted, which were done in the name of the good we experienced. Also, not everything WE saw was as WE saw it. Many things were done to control the image of twi, and of vpw, and so on. I'd recommend spending some time reading around here, and getting to learn some things that are considered common knowledge around here.

Correct. "Is that all? If she were not dead, I would kill her myself!" ST:TNG managed to put forth "there is no god" in one episode, and "there is intelligent design" in THIS episode. Neat trick, and quite clever. Go, George!

New quote. I bet you know a lot of my friends...Like, uh, Duke of Ellington, Count of Basie, Earl of Hines, Cab of Calloway, Satchmo of Armstrong?"

Fine. Next quote. "He's right. For all we know it might be a recipe for biscuits." "Biscuits? If that is what you believe, then go back to Cardassia. I will send you my mother's recipe."

Hello. My general advice is here: http://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/index.php?showtopic=7913 Enjoy your stay.

We discussed Camp Gunnison on " Is There Still A Corps Director?" here... http://www.greasespotcafe.com/ipb/index.php?showtopic=11984

One visit to http://www.biblegateway.com later, I found this: (KJV) Proverbs 12:10. "A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel." (NASB) "A righteous man has regard for the life of his animal, but even the compassion of the wicked is cruel." (NIV) "A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal, but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel." (The Message) "Good people are good to their animals; the "good-hearted" bad people kick and abuse them." (NLT) "The godly care for their animals, but the wicked are always cruel." Nicely put. If it was from EITHER, it was from BOTH. If it was from lcm, he was taught it by vpw. He certainly didn't get it growing up as a Baptist. And he had no imagination for himself until he ascended the throne. If it was from vpw, then he taught it to lcm, who passed it along. Hey, since the CORPS were DISPOSABLE to vpw-which he taught to lcm- of course KIDS were disposable too-after all, they took work to maintain/raise.

You know, you could have done another quote or 2 before the "gimme." I suspected it might have been Sanford & Son, but I was waiting for one more quote to make sure. (Plus I don't like to bounce turns between just 2 people, and like to give the others a fair shot...)

No. "Hailing frequencies CLOSED, sir." "My friend Data, you see things with the wonder of a child. And that makes you more human than any of us." "I keep thinking, how empty it will be without her presence. Did I miss the point?" "No... no, you didn't, Data. You got it."

Correct! Roger Moore as James Bond, Christopher Lee as Scaramanga (the Man with the Golden Gun.) Herve Villechaize as Nick-Nack (who is small but never forgets.) The giveaway was Scaramanga's choice of a duel with Bond. Scaramanga's gun only holds one bullet, which is enough if you don't miss... Christopher Lee said once that he was glad they expanded the part. In the book, Scaramanga's just an assassin, but in the movie, he became a classy villain. Go, Raf!

Right series, wrong episode. Something a bit earlier in the series...

The "edited posthumously" books were published by European Christian Press. (This of course was based on twi's "American" Christian Press, which in turn copied Leonard's CANADIAN CHRISTIAN PRESS. ) That included "Living Victoriously", "Our Times", "Take God At His Word" and "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus." Walter's book under the ACP was "Demonstrating God's Power: Studies in Biblical Accuracy Volume 1." I'm pretty sure JAL's 3 books were also ACP: "Will the Real You Please Stand Up?" "Will the Real You Please Remain Standing?" and "Living in the Eye of the Storm." Due to the editing standards of the time, the first of those 3 books had such memorable lines as "life is fear in the sand of machinery", and "fear is life in the machinery of sand."

Correct! That was Ralph's mantra for not losing his temper that one episode. The soliloquy was from the Christmas episode-I'm surprised people didn't recognize it. Ed excuses himself when Ralph's expecting Alice back in the "Blabbermouth" episode with his comment about a man wanting to be alone. Ralph referenced Bellevue Hosp's famous psychiatric ward a few times. This one was after watching Norton, dressed as Pierre Francois de la Brioski, attempt to inhale snuff (and sneeze his wig clean off.) Go, hiway!

Always remember that the minimum requirements are usually on the low end of performance, and if it says "recommended", THAT's the number you should be exceeding....

"You know something, sweetheart? Christmas is... well, it's about the best time of the whole year. When you walk down the streets, even for weeks before Christmas comes, and there's lights hanging up, green ones and red ones, sometimes there's snow and everyone's hustling some place. But they don't hustle around Christmas-time like they usually do. You know, they're a little more friendlier... they bump into you, they laugh and they say, "Pardon me. Merry Christmas"... especially when it gets real close to Christmas night. Everybody's walking home, you can hardly hear a sound. Bells are ringin', kids are singing, the snow is coming down. And boy what a pleasure it is to think that you've got some place to go to. And that the place that you're going to, there's somebody in it that you really love. Some one you're nuts about. Merry Christmas." "Bellevue is calling!" "Pins and needles, needles and pins, it's a happy man that grins." " In the words of the immortal bard, Shakespeare, "There are three times in a man's life when he wants to be alone: one, when he's communing with his thoughts; two, when he's being tender with his wife; and three, when he's in the isolation booth on 'The $64,000 Question'."

"How will I recognize him?" "Tall, slim, and dark." "So is my aunt. Anything distinctive about him?" "You get as much pleasure out of killing as I do, so why don't you admit it?" "I admit killing you would be a pleasure." "Who'd want to put a contract on me?" "Jealous husbands! Outraged chefs! Humiliated tailors! The list is endless!" "A gun and a bag of peanuts, how original. What will they think of next?" "I may be small but I never forget!" "Pistols at dawn; it's a little old-fashioned, isn't it?" "That it is. But it remains the only true test for gentlemen." "On that score, I doubt you qualify. However, I accept." "One bullet against my six?" "I only need one"

"Hailing frequencies CLOSED, sir." "My friend Data, you see things with the wonder of a child. And that makes you more human than any of us."

Because they've been convinced-through extensive indoctrination and controlling the avenues of information- that the only other option to "do what we say without question" is to completely leave the presence and protection of God Almighty, and be consigned to the outer darkness. Or a "greasespot by midnight." Those of us HERE know this is a transparent piece of fiction, but those in the GRIP of it may not know any better.

"Hailing frequencies CLOSED, sir."

Ok, that was the Iconian computer thingy that did that. Let's see, that was the episode "Contagion" that had the Iconians.

Oh, and before I lose my chance, a word about the previous movie... The best line that was cut from the movie is fairly well-known. Mel Brooks has been asked to tell the story a number of times-and he's told it. When Lily Von Schtupp is supposed to vamp Sheriff Bart, she says something as she puts the lights out... Lily: "Is it true how zey say zat you people are... gifted? Oh. It's twue. It's twue. It's twue, it's twue!" (deleted line)Bart: "You're sucking my arm!" The shame is that nowadays they could air it, but the studio refused to let them keep it back when. Mel Brooks met with a rep, was told that, and said "No problem" or something to that effect. He went back to the studio and said "They said it's fine-go ahead and shoot it." Sadly, there doesnt seem to be a surviving copy anywhere of the footage...

Sounds like poor Jan from "the Brady Bunch", always competing with Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.....
