  1. One other "feature" is a bit annoying: when I post a response, the page refreshes to the very bottom, below any of the posts. George
  2. I was in graduate school and paid my own way, so no need for parental "funding." They weren't happy about it, but they figured I could make up my own mind. At least it got me out of Roman Catholicism!! George
  3. In my opinion, this episode of the original series is tied with "Journey to Eden" as the worst. "Spock's Brain" George
  4. That's the one: "Timescape." (The "hissing ball of fur" line is Riker, explaining to Dr. Crusher how he got so banged up trying to feed Spot!) You're up, Steve!. George
  5. I note that when I select text and use the size control, the resulting text is a lot smaller thatn it used to be. For example, This is Size = 2 which should be bigger than normal text, but appears to be much smaller. George
  6. Well, I did see "Armageddon," but it obviously didn't make that big an impression. :) RR, feel free to join in any time. I'm sure you've seen (or know of) movies with memorable lines! For instance: "Say 'Hello' to my little friend!" George
  7. The signature line from the Burns and Allen show was "Say Goodnight, Gracie" (Her response was, of course, "Goodnight, Gracie.") I assume that "Gracie, we win" would immediately ring a bell with me had I seen the movie; it would appear that I haven't. Incidentally, RR, this "cult game" has only been going on for less than a week! As I pointed out in the opening post, the idea here is to make it easy. (Just because I don't know the answer, though, doesn't mean that most people won't.) George
  8. Just upgraded to IE 7.0. Works OK. George
  9. I was wondering where the avatars went, and couldn't figure out how to reply with a quote. Opening the site in Firefox instead of IE6 solved those problems. Unfortunately, all of my bookmarks are in IE. I suppose I can upgrade to version 7. George
  10. "The Blues Brothers" A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. George
  11. "I think this is gonna work. But... it's gonna take some time." "Well... It would seem that time is what we have plenty of." "All I remember is setting down the food... and then a hissing ball of fur came out of nowhere....I hate cats." "The starboard antimatter pod is completely drained. The fuel reserves are empty." "Is there a containment leak?" "No sir. The containment field is intact... all engine systems are operational... The fuel is just gone." George
  12. Actually, it's "THE Beverly Hillbillies" DEBBIE (Reynolds) + EVERLY (Brothers) + (Faith) HILL + BILLYS (Martin and Carter) Go for it, NIS George
  13. No. (Boy, this new forum set-up will take some getting used to!) George
  14. "Drucilla, why did you put that grass snake down Magda's back? You know she's deathly afraid of snakes!" "But mother, you should have seen her face. She turned three different shades of green." "We are not amused." "You work for a man?" "Yes.' "So he tells you what to do and you do it?" "Yes!" George
  15. Not to me... :unsure: :blink: George
  16. I doubt you'll ever make the same mistake again, but I'm reminded of something the humorist Dave Barry once wrote: Unless her feet are in the stirrups, and you see a head crowning, NEVER suggest that a woman is pregnant! :lol: George
  17. "Kindergarten Cop" "ARRRRRMY training, SIR!!!" George
  18. This is a long shot, but since the area around the basket is referred to as "the key" in basketball, I'm going to guess "The Monkees." George
  19. I thought that that would be fairly easy, but here's another line from the same film: "Joel, sometimes you just have to say, 'What the f---.'" George
  20. NG episode. The classic "Yesterday's Enterprise." George
  21. I don't know the musician, but his "stand-in" is Ian McKellan. I believe the cartoon character is "Rayne" PINK + IAN + NIB +RAYNE should indeed be "Pinky and the Brain." George
  22. No offense. It was my mistake. George
  23. Whereas I do not disagree that child-rearing in TWI was a problem, I think that defining any test you know TWI will fail as "the litmus test" is a bit dishonest. It would be like saying the "true. litmus test" of a healthy, viable state is that it has no state income tax. Oops, too bad, NY, MA, CA, etc. Oh look! I live in TX! George
