There are some really innovative designs for RC cathedrals in the UK. Exciting to look at. Nicely done inside. A lot of Anglican churches are very old (older than the USA) (think, dating back to Norman times, 1066 and all that) and clunky outside. Might be light and lovely inside, though. FYI there is a Saxon church not far from where I live, not much altered from when it was built. Dates back to the late 600s (and no, I didn't miss off a digit). Still consecrated and still in use; though a more modern building (built around 1150) is just across the road. It's nice and modern inside. The congregation is very active in the community. As with all these buildings, it's not what the building itself is. It's what's taught inside. I have llittle truck with churchianity. What is the message, and how does it respect and work into daily life the teachings of the Bible? Is it wrapped up in dogma and church-made rules, or is it open to what the Good News really is? That's why i like this woman, Monte Mader, and also Rev Joseph Yoo (Facebook), who both challenge churchianity's entrenched and biased positions. I am coming up against churchianity at the moment. Getting married next week. The orthodox Anglican ceremony includes words and standard prayers that I really don't like. Our minister has allowed me to change some aspects but she is bound by oaths to observe certain rituals. So what do I "suck" and what can I reasonably challenge? Bless her, she is such a sweetie. It's not fair on me to compromise her oaths but she is not insisting on aspects I find naff.

A song I know that I've posted a couple of times, but I'm pretty sure that other players never got it. Sky Pilot ~The Animals~ - Yesterday

"We're all going to die." "I hope so." "Any questions?" "Hand!" "Yes, that is your hand. Very good." "Recently, I made a promise to myself that the next time I got a boyfriend, I'd be on the lookout for red flags. And if I saw any, I would do the healthy thing and I would murder him. And killing kids? Kind of a red flag." George

He blesses the boys as they stand in life the smell of gun grease and their bayonets they shine he's here to help them all that he can to make them feel wanted he's a good holy man. (More than one line, if that's OK.) -
That would be it.

No, but probably some play on the title perhaps, no, maybe?? Oh, that is a movie! Then, definitely not. I don't care if they did call you Larry Poppins. You are completely unfit to handle a child. It was Barry Poppins. What kind of sick cocktail were you going to make my grandson? Jack, the baby's teething. I told Greg to give him some rum to ease the pain. It was your idea? Yes. What is wrong with you people? You people?

Just so I can say I tried it, was this "THE HEBREW HAMMER"?

"Drunken Master" sounds like a JACKIE CHAN flick, and he was in the Cannonball Run.

First Blood? George

Oh wow, really? Ok. "God didn't make *****. I made him." Blocked out portion is not the title, but it is part of the title of multiple sequels.

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. Norman Lloyd's character in the series is named Isaac Mentnor. It's a hint for Marvel Comics, where Isaac actually is I.S.A.A.C. (short for Integral Synaptic Anti-Anionic Computer), a sentient program capable to create robotic forms that rules Titan, Jupiter's moon. I.S.A.A.C. was created by Mentor, leader of the Titans and Thanos' father. The password is "Conundrum." George

All day long they work so hard Till the sun is going down Working on the highways and byways And wearing, wearing a frown You hear them moaning their lives away George

Amen. We thought we had all the right stuff... am thankful now to see that that presumption was erroneous.
