Huey Lewis Back to the Future Crispin Glover

Riddle: "Why did Job have trouble sleeping?" "He had miserable comforters." ====== Job's miserable comforters saw a man suffering, having suffered financial disaster, loss of family, and physical affliction. What was their response? "Oh, you must have been a terrible sinner! It's your fault!" Kicked him when he was down. GOD said Job was "BLAMELESS." vpw said Job was to be blamed- it was Job's "failure to believe" that resulted in horrible things. vpw, lcm, pfal and twi as a whole have placed themselves firmly in the "miserable comforters" category.

Well, besides singing "Power of Love" on the soundtrack, Huey Lewis had a walkon role in the band audition scene of "Back to the Future". :)--> So, now someone can just link off another actor off the movie....

Here's the only other song I can think of that names 2 superheroes... You don't tug on Superman's cape, You don't spit in the wind, You don't pull the mask of the ol' Lone Ranger..."

In 20/20 hindsight, the mother now wants the violent dog put down. A TRUE knee-jerk liberal would NEVER say that. They would say the dog was following his nature and was right to kill the little boy. They'd say the dog has MORE right to be here than the little boy. Thankfully, there are relatively few true knee-jerk liberals. So, I say the political cheap-shot was not justified by the story. (I'm a moderate and distrust BOTH sides equally.)

The cheapest way to get that to work will be to buy her a new hard drive with Windows XP pre-installed, then swap out the old drive. As Igotout said, even a CHEAP hard-drive will have more memory than the one that machine's running on. Your other budget choice is to scrap using Windows for that thing. Switch to Red Hat Linux for an operating system and load Firefox or something for the web-browser. ======= You may have forgotten this, but older computers have a LOT less memory, and Windows XP may be stable, but it has a HUGE footprint. That machine she has may not have room to run XP and anything else.

Here's what the Snopes people had to say about the fabric softener thing... http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/household/bounce.asp Here's what they said about the science behind you guys adding soap or a different substance to standing water... http://www.snopes.com/oldwives/dishsoap.asp Apparently, some people had gotten the idea that if you added dishwashing detergent to water, it produced a magical cauldron that stunned and killed mosquitos in the area. Yeah, that standing water's a real pain.....

The only song I know of that names "Green Lantern" is "Sunshine Superman" by Donovan. ("Superman and Green Lantern ain't got nothin' on me!" is the line.) That's the one you were thinking of, right? :)-->

"Superconductor," by RUSH. =========== "Packaged like a rebel or a hero, target mass appeal To make an audience feel he really means it. Package the illusion of persona careful to conceal The fact that she's only too real she's got to screen it. Hit you in a soft place, a melody so sweet A strong and simple beat that you can dance to. Watch his every move- Superconductor. Orchestrate illusions- Superconductor. Watch his every move-Superconductor. Hoping you'll believe, designing to deceive- That's entertainment. He can put a target on the market, bask in your applause. Reality withdraws-now he believes it. The role becomes the actor, she's addicted to applause, The stage a world because she never leaves it. Hit you in a soft place with sentimental ease They know the fantasies that you romance to. Watch her every move-Superconductor. She can manipulate reactions-Superconductor. Watch her every move-Superconductor. Pin the donkeys on her tail Fantasy for sale- that's entertainment!" ==================

Fits his modus operandi quite nicely, doesn't it? Gotta equal or top everything vpw said because I'M in charge now... "Never let reality get in the way of doctrine" seems to have been a rule of thumb used at hq.

"Blow"?

Nuts. I got curious and looked it up. I was wrong AND I'm out.

Wait....Anthony Anderson....... " King's Ransom", right?

No surprises there. At that point, they had to seize on ANY pretexts to explain how you were evil. If you never led a different song, they would have blamed you for THAT. If you stayed in the background, they would have blamed you for THAT.

Interesting how rain was your fault, when EVERYBODY knows that God makes "the rain to fall on the just and unjust". He might have tried actually READING A BIBLE. Not that the situation has changed at hq- remember? The current pres has said there's no need to read the Bible if you're following the current teachings from hq instead. She's said that's why she doesn't read the Bible.

I'm not getting the name, either. However, I'd like to this this now, based on the quotes. :D-->

Looks like the early favourite to unseat Rozilla will be R#pp, with Je@n-Y^es as the "dark horse" candidate. I wonder if they'll get that "Highlander" lightning when one of them finally unseats her. --> Harve's been sh**canned-that will teach him for logging onto the GSC- he read threads and got possessed!!! :D--> Moneyhands is being moved completely off the continent-that's the last we'll hear of HIM! Must not have been sufficiently servile. This is referred to as "tall poppy" syndrome. Rozilla sees anyone with even a lick of talent, and she's got to "take them out" before they replace her "wet cardboard" personality. Thus, she is "culling" all the talent out of the leadership ranks. This is a GOOD thing. It helps set the stage for the ultimate collapse of what's left of the organization. ;)-->

Speak for yourself. I know that. You know that. I can name at least one person who DOESN'T know that-or at least, refuses to ADMIT that.

That's how the higher-ups did it, so, that's how they were gonna do it, and if they didn't, eventually, an encyclical from on high would dictate that it was now mandatory to do it that way.

While we wait for Sharon... "I'm the burning bush, I'm the burning fire, I'm a bleedin' vol-cano!"

Got it just before I started posting quotes that would actually be clues. :)--> Yours sounds oddly familiar. "The Peacemaker"?

"Bless my metronome!" "Help!" "No thanks, we don't need any."

I think that everyone who was nuts in twi either was nuts before they arrived, or had all the ingredients for going nuts before arriving, and twi just helped them put it together. (I don't mean neurological psychiatric disorders, I mean the unstable personalities twi's become notorious for around here.) Some people DID go thru Corps and so on and remain sane, some even were good Christians-at least in the lower Corps numbers, at any rate. Of course, as more of those guys filled the staff, that changed.... ====== Nuts will show up anywhere and everywhere. Whether they CLUSTER someplace of not is a measure of the structures in place and the policies enacted. Since twi was designed to remove accountability whenever possible, and leadership below mimicked the dysfunctional behaviour of higherups, who mimicked the mog, that meant dysfunctional behaviour as Standard Operating Procedure, with no accountability and no means of recourse except to appeal up the ladder. Sometimes that worked-but often it didn't because you appealed to someone who had the same problems.
