songs remembered from just one line

Actually, isn't this the Beatles' tune "Money"? George -
songs remembered from just one line

And this is key. I gather that most of us are in the 40-60 years old range, so songs from the 60's to the 80's will probably be most recognizable. This "handicaps" the 20-30 year olds somewhat, in that songs by Godsmack, Korn, or Rage Against the Machine will get nothing but blank stares from the rest of us. (I couldn't name a single song from those groups, but my kids love them.) Even within age groups, there are certain "cliques." I'm not a Deadhead. I couldn't give a lyric from one of their songs, though someone else here might sing them in his sleep. The point is to TRY to give a line (ideally, the first) from a song which will give it away to the majority of folks here. More obscure songs should be relegated to "Name That Tune." I suggest that if no one gets your clue within about a day, just post the title and try another (or offer a free post). George -
Moving e-mail from one computer to another
GeorgeStGeorge replied to GeorgeStGeorge's topic in Computer Questions
No. They did it for "free." Interestingly, they had to try a couple of times, so when they were done every e-mail in my folder had about five copies! I went back and deleted the "extras." George -
Eddie Murphy wasn't in "Dave" George

If the fourth pic isn't NET, it might be FAULT or SERVE, but I'm still not getting the beginning sounds. :( George

"They really came here to play today." As opposed to the other team,who apparently came to ogle cheerleaders and collect their paychecks... George

That's it. Your go. George

"Will & Grace" Three pics, need three names George

Yo, Guys! Soul Searcher answered "Jerry Maguire" and gave his own clue "Sometimes you gotta say "What the Fvck"..." This line was from "Risky Business" as I responded. Then I gave a new clue "Top of the world, Ma!!" which is what we're playing now. It's not from "Sunset Boulevard." Try again. George P.S. I thought I had started this with Risky Business, but that was actually post #19 in this thread.

The top two are "trademarks" of the film. George

The third picture could be a pendant or a broche. I just can't think of a movie title beginning with the sounds ROME + OWEN. George

That's it. BURR + NOTE + ESS or BURR + NO + TESS Your turn George

Honestly, PD, that was a bit obscure. Not the movie, but the use of an anguished OJ (whom I couldn't even recognize) for "verdict." I might have gone with "fur" and "Dick" (Nixon or Cheney). Anyway... Three pics, need two names, sort of. George

"Son of a...! That's gonna leave a mark!" "Shnikeys!" "God, you're gonna remember this the rest of your life. Can't believe you've never been cow tipping before. Get ready to live. Huh, huh, huh, ssshhhh. She's sleepin'. What you do is, you put your shoulder into her and you push." "And?" "They fall over, hee, hee, hee." "And this doesn't strike you as kinda' dumb?" "We're family, we're gonna be doing lots of dumb stuff together. Wait 'til Christmas." "It's called reading! Top to bottom, left to right... a group of words together is called a sentence. Take Tylenol for any headaches... Midol for any cramps." "Hey, what's your name?" "Helen." "That's nice, you look like a Helen. Helen, we're both in sales. Let me tell you why I suck as a sales man. Let's say I go into a guy's office, let's say he's even remotely interested in buying something. Well then I get all excited. I'm like Jojo the idiot circus boy with a pretty new pet." [Reaches down and picks up a dinner roll] "Now the pet is my possible sale. Hello there pretty little pet, I love you. And then I stoke it, and I pet it, and I massage it. Hehe I love it, I love my little naughty pet." [Pokes the roll playfully] "You're naughty! And then I take my naughty pet and I go..." [makes ripping noises as he tears apart the roll] [Wailing loudly, making the whole restaurant look] "Uuuuuuh! I killed it! I killed my sale! And that's when I blow it. That's when people like us have gotta forge ahead, Helen. Am I right?" "God, you're sick!" "Listen up, you little spazoids. I know where you live and I've seen where you sleep. I swear to everything holy that your mothers will cry when they see what I've done to you." "You're right! You're not your dad! He could sell a ketchup Popsicle to a woman in white gloves!" "Ketchup Popsicle?" "Yeah. I learned everything I know from him. I didn't have a real father, but you, he was your real dad and you just took him for granted." "I can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking my head up a bull's a$$, but I'd rather take a butcher's word for it." George

The dove is probably representative of either "the" or hopefully "the" plus the first sound of the next word (v or maybe f) What the sad man represents eludes me at this time. George
