For those interested and concerned, here's a commentary on the Christian Nationalist and self-described "paleo-Confederate," Douglas Wilson. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/14/opinion/douglas-wilson-evangelical-hegseth.html?unlocked_article_code=1.eU8.IF2t.ygovpbbB8QNL&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare Warning: may trigger projectile vomit.

Need another clue. George

"Resident Alien" just finished its 4-season run. Alan Tudyk and a delightful supporting cast. About an alien (Tudyk) sent to Earth to wipe out humanity, but he crashes in Patience, CO; and his doomsday device is wrecked. He takes on the identity of the local doctor and eventually learns to appreciate humanity, even saving it once or twice from other alien races. Even though I just gave a bit of a spoiler, I highly recommend your seeing it. Four of the cast (Tudyk, Sara Tomko, Alice Wetterling, and Corey Reynolds) were in Houston for ComicPalooza in June and gave an entertaining and informative panel discussion. George

Two men come to mind, thanks to the last quote. Let's try Edward James Olmos George

Chris Evans? George

Indeed she is! George

Shrek Eddie Murphy Dr. Dolittle George

It is BJT. Finish this line: "Hey, won't you play ..." George

Crossing the highway late last night, He shoulda looked left and he shoulda looked right.

"I fight for what is mine and for what I believe in." "A man can do a whole lot of good with his life if he has an even chance." "Fleeing the Cylon tyranny, the last Battlestar- Galactica= leads a ragtag, fugitive fleet on a lonely quest, for a shining planet... known as Earth."

Next one. Fantastic Four- Rise of the Silver Surfer Scott Pilgrim Vs the World Avengers-Age of Ultron

It should have been easier. Margot Kidder meant it was a Superman movie. Jackie Cooper should have told me that sooner. Robert Vaughn narrowed it down a lot. IIRC, the other movies included Lex Luthor, but Robert Vaughn played the evil genius in this one.

"Wonder Woman!" She's a wonder, that Wonder Woman!

I kept coming up with ~B J Thomas~ for the artist of the song. Uncle.

We have a rocking chair. Each of us rocks his share, eating muffin buns and berries by the steamy kitchen window. Sometimes we do. Our tongues turn blue.....

Oldies' video... Woh, all the hair gone, but sporting a moustache now. I wouldn't have recognised him. Interesting that he is preaching and has translators acting immediately. Maybe that will slow down his histrionics, his disgusting rants, his foulmouthed insults. Got to be a good thing! One wonders who is the target audience.

Nice to see you, Belle. It's been a while.

3,000 participants. Does that include, I wonder, all the staff pressganged to work on the event? Limb coordinators, etc (if such still exist), dragged in? Together with spouses and children? I'm almost surprised that there'd be 900 non-staff present. And 900 "ambassadors"? In their dreams!

This sounds plausible.

And where the eff did they get "more than 900 people" to sign up as Way Ambassadors? Or is it just that they have 900 actual "members" and declared that wherever they are they are "ambassadors of TWI"? A mere technicality to be able to claim they have 900 ambassadors.

Great question.
