It was, indeed, "The Natural." Go, Lifted! George

Unless VPW quoted him without citation, the last one is clearly Dickens (A Tale of Two Cities). George

With this particular thread, I'd use VERY well-known movies. Disguising the plot of a virtually unknown movie is like making counterfeit Monopoly money. (To be fair, I have no idea how popular "Stranger than Fiction" was, but I can't recall even hearing of it before now.) George

I remember being in some leaders' meeting (it might have been at an AC or WIB). The gentleman leading my group was a BC in Louisiana. He shared that in one PFAL class he ran, he had to remove a firearm from one of the participants (not by force, just saying the guy didn't need it). I started laughing hysterically, thinking about a guy who thought he might have to shoot his way out of a Bible class! Now a clergy meeting, on the other hand... :blink: To be fair, Nehemiah had armed people building the wall of Jerusalem, and Paul had a Roman cohort protect him from those who plotted to kill him. George

I remember seeing Three Stooges reruns all the time, but I can't remember any Abbot and Costello. Maybe they just didn't run in Chicago. George

Sounds like an HG Wells story. "The Day the Earth Stood Still"? George

Next time, just guess the flick. If you're wrong, you can guess again without having to disqualify yourself! "Batting practice tomorrow, be there!" "I have been. Every day." "You read my mind." "That takes all of three seconds." "My ma urged me to get out of this game. When I was a kid, she pleaded with me. And I meant to, you know what I mean? But she died." "Tough." "Now look at me. I'm wet nurse to a last-place, dead-to-the-neck-up ball club, and I'm choking to death!" "I guess some mistakes you never stop paying for." "You know, I believe we have two lives." "How... what do you mean?" "The life we learn with and the life we live with after that." "Pretty good food, huh?" "Damn good." "You can't spell it, but it eats pretty good, don't it?" George

Gandhi? George

That's it! (I work in Catherine Bell pics whenever I can!) George

"It's time you people remember whose name is at the top of the letterhead!" "Don't underestimate me, I'm amazing with mums. When I was at High School all of them had crushes on me, it was the daughters I had trouble with." George

Yeah. Craig's Advanced Class (PFAL -- I was gone before the WAP AC). He made a show of cocking a shotgun and a pistol (a Glock, I think) as "sounds that would back off a devil spirit." or words to that effect. At least in HIS theology, a devil spirit would rather hang out in a human that he'd already "conditioned" than have to go find another. George

Did Bud and Lou have a TV show? (Or was this radio?) George

More likely, they'll just bar all cameras, phones, etc. George

Sudo must be REALLY OLD! I have no idea what show the tune was from. George

Hey, you purty young filly! Haven't seen your keester around these parts much. Reckon you're chasing off all the young studs! Have a wonderful birthday! George

If I could just find some Nostalgic birthday clip... Happy Birthday, Old Man! George

You're thinking too hard (!) on the first clue, and you need the name of the last young lady (a personal favorite of mine). George

Maybe we can do both... five pics, need three names George

This should be easy (and fun to post): George

The last one is the giveaway. "The Cosby Show." George

I should point out that this does not include the tax to pay for Houston's sumptuous athletic arenas. The actual "drive-out" price is $119.77 per night per room. You can cram as many people in the room as you wish, however. :) George

Not cheap, but a good location. Thanks for the legwork, Rascal! No, I do not. :) George

"Air America"? George

Righto, WordWolfio! George

Now I See has it. It's JFK from "Profiles in Courage." George
