  1. I'll give it Waysider. Most people think of it as "Don't Worry 'Bout Me," but the actual title is "Opus 17." I'd be surprised if WW and Human haven't heard it. Valli (91) is still performing and can still hit the high notes. I saw him live last week. His current "Four Seasons" and the backup band were all much younger, of course. It was a great show. I had forgotten how many great songs they did. George
  2. That's quite a lineup, but I'm not getting it. George
  3. I doubt Mac Davis ever covered this one. George
  4. Oh, I can see There ain't no room for me You're only holding out Your heart in sympathy If there's another man Then girl, I understand Go on and take his hand I'll be blue (Baby blue) And I'll be crying, too (Crying, too, crying, too) But girl, you know I only want What's best for you What good is all my pride If our true love has died? Go on and be his bride George
  5. Apparently, George Clooney played a major role. Leatherheads? George
  6. Yes. I remember all of the hubbub about the occasional buttock on the show. Boring by today's standards but considered pretty racy back then. Dennis Franz was Det. Andy Sipowicz on NYPD Blue. He was Lt. Norman Buntz on Hill Street Blues a decade earlier. (Early on in Hill Street, he played a jerk cop, Sal Benedetto. That character disappeared (killed off? I don't remember) and Franz returned to the show a couple of years later as Buntz. He then had the spin-off Beverly Hills Buntz, co-starring Peter Jurasik.) WW is up. George
  7. This show is often thought of as having brought nudity to broadcast TV, though it was actually predated by "Steambath," with a topless Valerie Perrine on PBS. Also prior to this show, "M*A*S*H briefly showed Radar O'Reilly's naked behind when he loses his towel running from a sniper. The main star played a similar character on another show (with a similar name) a decade earlier. George
  8. "I know what you're thinking: Did he fire six shots, or only five?" George
  9. And it is very cold in space. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan Not sure of the other two. George
  10. Human got five right, WW got four. (Jan and Dean were not in the first group.) The whole lineup: (they were inducted in alphabetical order) Chuck Berry, James Brown, Ray Charles, Sam Cooke, Fats Domino, The Everly Brothers, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard (Pettiman), and Elvis Presley. George
  11. The duo counts as one name. If you don't know them, there are nine other choices. Give five. George
  12. OK, that was a tough one. it was a V-2 rocket, in 1944. Let's try an easier one: The first ten inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame were inducted on January 23, 1986. Nine were individual performers, and the other was a duo. Name FIVE of them. George
  13. Yes, both of those quotes are pretty recognizable for The Shining. George
  14. If you don't get the actual title, I'll accept the way it's usually referred to: Oh, I can see There ain't no room for me You're only holding out Your heart in sympathy If there's another man Then girl, I understand Go on and take his hand George
  15. The Jerk "Wendy? I'm hooooome!" George
  16. The Candy Man Can by Sammy Davis Jr? George
  17. My dad had lupus. It wasn't the variety that attacked his internal organs, but it kept him out of the sun. George
  18. This was not a satellite. And "outer space" is only about 15 miles from the surface (end of the atmosphere). George
  19. By George, I think he's got it! George
