  1. Past hour
  2. It sounded familiar until the last set. "AVENGERS- AGE OF ULTRON?"
  3. Today
  4. Heart attack, brought on by obesity. Correct! This was a good example of "keep your mouth shut if you're not in charge of talking to the press." She was found in bed, with an ENTIRE, UNEATEN sandwich within arm's reach. Can't choke on something NOBODY has ever eaten, let alone yourself. The old saw about it being a HAM sandwich was just a cheap joke about a Jew choking on something non-Kosher. (Or another cheap shot about her weight by invoking a pig, take your pick.) Why do people think she choked on a sandwich? The coroner choked on the air! The media showed up with cameras and microphones. He got nervous ("he choked") and began rambling and spewing nonsense instead of checking his notes. There was a sandwich present, that's true. It had nothing to do with cause of death, unless the sandwich scared her and instigated the heart attack while it sat on the plate. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/ham-and-wheeze/ It is true that she seemed to dislike answering to "Mama Cass." She appeared on game shows, and was NEVER referred to as "Mama Cass", even though it would have made the audience recognize her faster. Every single time, she was called "Cass Elliot", which was her stage name. (Her real last name was Cohen, and "Cass" came from her Dad jokingly comparing her to "Cassandra" of Greek myth.
  5. "Or something" was not inaccurate, but it was too vague to count as a guess or a correct answer.
  6. Um, that's not the name. If you can't give me the name, give me the names of all the drinks. at least. "Don't cry for me, next door neighbor." (Raf, you can stop laughing, it wasn't that funny. ,) )
  7. Yesterday
  8. Well, honestly, it's not in Human's wheelhouse, and Waysider pretty much keeps to the music threads. I would expect you and WW to know, though. George
  9. How do people not know this?
  10. "And she brings you tea and oranges that come all the way from China." (artist of your choosing)
  11. If only... These will make it obvious to those who've seen it... "The gates of Hell are filled with the screams of his victims! ... But not the screams of the dead, of course. No, no... wounded screams... mainly whimpering, a great deal of complaining and tales of sprained deltoids and... gout." "All set up, boss." "Actually, he's the boss. I just pay for everything and design everything, make everyone look cooler." "The girl tried to warp my brain! Take special care, I doubt if humans can keep her at bay! Fortunately, I am mighty..." "You're afraid." "Of you?" "Of death. You're the last one." "You were supposed to be the last." "Please be a secret door, please be a secret door, please be a secret door..." [Finds and opens secret door] "Yay!" "But if you put the hammer in an elevator?" "It'll still go up." "Elevator's not worthy." "You get hurt, hurt 'em back. You get killed... walk it off." "You son of a bitch!" "Whoa ho ho! You kiss your mother with that mouth?" George
  12. FYI There's a used copy of Undertow now available at Thriftbooks. $18.39. Browse | New & Used Books from ThriftBooks
  13. "I get knocked down, but I get up again. They ain't never gonna keep me down!"
  14. Last week
  15. Well, if they haven't deleted any of the text, I'm here to let you know I'm glad it's in print again. In the years to come, the kids of people who were loyal may be helped to understand what the appeal was. Also, I quoted some of that book in my own book, Undertow. Now folks can check that source and see for themselves what I referred to. I'm even quoted in that book, LOL, while I was in the Way Corps training and totally enamored with The Way. So you'll read what First and Second Corps members had to say and what we did back then. For anyone who wants to know some history of TWI and read what VPW said himself about a number of things--he's quoted extensively by the loyalist author, Elena Whiteside, this book will open your eyes. It validates what some of us have been talking about for so long ...

  19. This show aired from 1998-2001. I wonder if I was the only one on 9/11/2001 who thought it would have been great to go back a week and stop the attack before it happened. George
  20. I can hear Lane Smith (Perry White) saying it. "Make it so." George
