    Coffee

    My old boss used to say, "Get me a cup of coffee. And I want COFFEE! I don't want coffee-flavored milk!" Black. No sugar.

    TWI 3 & 4

    In the original post on this thread, Hope R said something that makes a lot of sense. We were arguing (actually, politely discussing) on another thread WHEN TWI-2 really began, with some of us arguing the reading of POP while others saying about 1993. I think it makes a great deal of sense to say that TWI-2 was actually in between those two dates, and what started in 1993 was TWI-3. That makes a lot more sense to me. TWI-1 ends with the death of Wierwille TWI-2 from Wierwille's death until 1993 TWI-3 from 1993 until The Brow's resignation TWI-4 from RFR's installation to now.

    Finally :-D

    I can see it now, "Do you, Abigail, take verbalkaisersushikintmanofathousandscreenna..." "I do, already!" :) Congrats, guys.
  4. Ok, this time I'm not kidding. I can only see the second picture.
  5. Ooh. Forgot this one. Lots of fun and games going on (at least, I hope it's fun). Let's see: Shirley Jones was in The Music Man with Robert Preston Preston was in Victor/Victoria with John Rhys Davies Rhys was in King Solomon's Mines with Sharon Stone Stone was in Hard to Kill with Steven Segal Now let's try a new one: Mariah Carey/Judy Garland
  6. Woah! That is an EXCELLENT movie pictionary.

    Coffee

    It may BE good. Heck, it may be delicious. What it ain't is coffee. I do have one correction, though. It's four words, not three. "Regular coffee, two sugars" is okay.
  8. It grossed $5.7 million? Dude!
  9. Along Came Polly ? If so, explain "along came."
  10. You guys are doing great! I'm... not exactly stumped, but nowhere near the answer yet.

    Coffee

    The reality is, coffee only maintains its coffee status if it has two or fewer added ingredients, and there are rules concerning those ingredients. For example, if, in an attempt to lighten your coffee, you add dust... what's in that cup is no longer coffee. It's a chemistry experiment. Further, you're only allowed to sweeten with one ingredient. If you use that French Vanilla creamer (liquid) and add sugar, you no longer have coffee. You have a diabetic threat. Finally, if it takes more than three words to order your coffee, it's not coffee, regardless of how many ingredients (Sweet-n-low counts as one word, and even then you're treading on chemistry experiment territory). Starbucks sells approximately two types of coffee. Everything else is snobby yuppie beverages. I have spoken.
  12. I doubt it. But who knows. The guy saw Traxx.
  13. Ah! Dang, what IS that movie? U You U-Turn Turnaround Reverse Back Chef Cook Portrait Man Baker
  14. I don't know how you guys pronounce things across the pond, but in the U.S., "missionary" is nine syllables. (Okay, four, but who's counting?)
  15. Only because you're a critic of God's Word who can't see what's right in front of him, Mark. THERE ARE FOUR WHEELS ON MY CAR!
  16. The civility of his tone? Every one of his posts contains insults directed at other people. What made this civil?
  17. WTH, It's become abundantly clear after each of your posts, which are far more patronizing than those who disagree with you, that you are letting your conclusions color the evidence, and not letting the evidence shape your conclusion. A gospel writer uses heteros to distinguish people he mentions from people he doesn't mention? Not even worth rebuttal. Matthew mentions only two, Mark mentions only two, Luke mentions only two and John mentions only two, yet the REASON they each mentioned only two is that the others mentioned the other two? That's not a reason, that's a dodge. It fails to answer the question. If four people were crucified with Christ, why did NONE of the gospel writers just come out and say so?
  18. No need to apologize. You're up.
  19. I believe it was Cynic who posted those, but yes, they do bear examination. I do note that some of the lexicons that have been posted show heteros as "the other of two." My problem with that is, at times allos is "the other of two" as well (turn the other cheek), so what's the big distinction?
  20. Oldies, We need the artist, too. Then you post some lyrics (and welcome to a thread where we can't disagree!)
