Lots of things are "said." Doesn't make them true. George

Either Thurman + E + Pitt or Thurman + EEP + It (clever!) "The Money Pit" George

At least in one case, this wasn't true. (I think.) John S0hmer married Janie Web$ter, who was 6th Corps. I don't think John ever went into the Corps himself, and I do remember him being "Spouse Corps." He was made Territory Leader in the Dallas area and was ordained. It's possible that he went into the Corps between Illinois and Texas, so feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken. George

Good clues, too, though I had to figure out who the Yankee was by "reverse solving." George

Agreed. George

This might be a little tricky. five pics George

Her first name is Ione. You need her last name to solve the puzzle. Try typing "Ione" into your search engine. If it's like mine, your engine will give you possible alternatives. You'll probably see the right one. As far as I know, there aren't many celebrities named Ione. George

Not I. George

You're fine. Usually, these "game" threads have the rules within the first few posts. Unlike "Name That Tune," which is supposed to be a bit challenging, the goal of this one is to post the first line from a song that everyone should recognize (but, obviously, not a song whose title is in the first line). Feel free to try the "Name That..." threads, or the "...Pictionary" threads, too. Again the basic rule is that you don't get to post a puzzle until you corectly guess someone else's. George

"You know that it's considered unsolvable?" "Well, certainly people who have failed to solve it might think that." "What are you doing here?" "Hey. Well, I'm ready to party like it's 1899." "You know, here's a discussion: Why is it that we remember the past and not the future? " "That's a tough one, Larry." "Look, it's my first date in over thirty-five years; I would like memorable instead of low-key." "Low-key and memorable aren't mutually exclusive. You know what my favorite date ever was? Pepperoni pizza at a laundromat." "Yes, which explains the conspicuous absence of grandchildren. So, Wednesday, 7:30. Bring a date?" "So what does all your behavioral science training tell you about a grown man who still lives with his mother?" "Probably about the same as two brothers still mooching meals at their dad's house three nights a week." George

OK. "Keeping Up Appearances." George

Still no idea. George

"Hey, Ace. I would like you very much to meet Judy. She can suck a golf ball through twenty feet of garden hose. Ain't that right?" "Who the hell are you?" "My... name... is... Johnny Wishbone. I am a psychic. Yes, my name is Johnny Wishbone and I am a psychic from the Isle of St. Croix. I read in the St. Croix Gazette that the Beverley Hills Police Department was having trouble solving crimes. So I came to help you out, because I am a psychic extraordinaire. But they told me you don't need help, so I will go home. Yes, my name is Johnny Wishbone and I am a psychic from the Isle of St. Croix. You, I don't know you. You are... MMMMmmmmmmmmmmMMM AAAhhhhhh LUTZ! Chief LUTZ! And you are... MMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm... AAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhh... " "Biddle?" "BIDDLE! Yes, Biddle I was about to say that, but you beat me to it. I don't need any help because I am Johnny Wishbone psychic extraordinaire. Just think Johnny Wishbone and I will come. Lutz and Biddle, like Kibble n' Bits, but different." "You just hit a squad car!" "It's okay, I know the guy. He's a jerk." George

You're welcome to play, but that means guessing someone else's song before posting your own. George

Being more conservative in my views, I wouldn't vote for Hillary or Obama because they're liberals. I, like Ex70's, would probably vote for Condoleezza Rice. George P.S. Frankly, I expect that the first woman and/or black to be elected President will be a Republican, because a lot of Democrats would vote for him/her on the basis of race/gender.

Open your TV Guide (or whatever) to the movies section. There's probably one there you can use! George

Would it help if I mention that the first woman's first name is Ione? George

National Lampoon's European Vacation Chevy Chase Foul Play George

It's a Rambo film. I think the first one was called "First Blood." George

Raf clearly knows it. In fact, his response is another quote. George

Well, a mint COULD act as a lozenge, soothing the speaker's throat.... George

Ahhhh...I'll give it to you. "Traveling Band" George

A classic "Earthworm Jim" cartoon: EJ and Peter Puppy are having lunch in an International House of Haggis. PP: "This isn't bad! I wonder why no one's in here. What is this, anyway?" EJ: "It's HAGGIS! The heart, lungs and liver of a sheep boiled in its own stomach." George
