I guess my only question is, was he offered the A&M job before or after the other gig? George (There's the makings of a great Aggie joke, here.)

'Tis the season. George

Only if you consider forty-five years "old"! It's "Donna the Prima Donna" by Dion. Someone else go ahead. George

Sounds like "Party of Five" but I don't get the last clue. George

Sounds like the NG episode where a Ferengi doctor explains metaphasic shielding. He's murdered by another alien who pretends to be murdered himself. (His physiology allows him to simulate death.) I don't remember the tennis elbow stuff, though. George

Remember that some GS-ers need to remain anonymous, so a webcam is probably out. George

1st two lines I met a girl a month ago; I thought that she would love me so. George

It seems that the impact in LA will be less than predicted, especially in New Orleans. Hopefully, the folks who evacuated won't decide to ride out the next one. As is usually the case for storms making landfall in LA, we're getting a nice day in Houston, with a pleasant northerly breeze. :) Gustav might be a big rainmaker for Dallas, though. George

As opposed to the many "degrees" of angelic power taught in many Christian circles today, TWI basically taught three: angels, archangels, and cherubim, which are actually found in the Bible. Actually, only Michael is called and archangel, though TWI gave Gabriel and Lucifer that status as well. Angels are messengers (which the Greek angelos means) and support staff (ministering to Jesus in the Garden, etc.). Cherubim are spirit beings quite differnt from angels. When angels appear, they look like men; cherubim hang around the throne of God to give Him praise and look like composite animals. George

That's a bit of an exaggeration. Anyone who PRAYED TO Jesus was supposedly talking to the "other Jesus" (2 Cor. 11:4), a devil spirit. George

Exercise is good, especially something strenuous (running, weight lifting). George

There is nothing new under the sun. Or in the Cafe. Why not drop by the game threads in the Reading Room? George

We let youngsters live because they're cute. We let adults live becuae they contribute to society. We let teen-agers live because it's the law. George

Nope. Older show. Let me un-modify the quotes. "Aww! Turn Blue." "This is a special delivery for Dad from the Universal Alumni Association." "I wonder how much money they want now." "Bud, why don't you hold it up to the light so you can see it better?" "Never thought of that. [Holds it up to the light] Can't see a thing." "As long as it's addressed to me, do you mind letting me have it?" "I saw your insurance chart once and it says the life expectancy of the average man is..." "For your information, I look barely in my '40s. That hardly qualifies me for the home for the aged. Yet." "You've been around so long and seen so much and done so much, and still manage to look so good." "Thanks a lot!" "I think you look real young. Honest. Younger than Joe Phillips' dad, younger than Claude Mesner's uncle, why even younger than..." "Bud, before you have me back in kindergarten, see who's at the door, will you?" George

Dr. Bashir being in a coma was enough for me to google the answer, but therefore I must recuse myself from this one. George

"Forbidden" songs were those written by "cop-outs" before they left TWI. The songs were wonderfully spiritual before they left, but afterwards, somehow the words took on a dark meaning. Of course, TWI had no problem with songs written by trinitarians (Bullinger, Luther, etc.). More and more restrictions were added as the years went by. In my last two years, I was forbidden to date anyone outside of TWI. George

Actually, she played Wonder Woman's little sister on the 70's series. George

It appears that they have been at this for a couple of years, at least. About two years ago, I got a call from my old TC. Actually, he just called and didn't even leave a message; but I saw his name on caller ID and called him back. After a few minutes of BS, he suggested that I come back to Twig. The problems from before, of course were due to the then-BC, and he's out of the area now... I thanked him for his time and pointed out that the "problems" were a lot deeper than the old BC, and that I would not be returning to TWI. I haven't heard from him (or any of the handful of others still in the Houston area) since. George

I guess it depends on what Raf meant by "cheating." If he meant googling a guess to see if it's a real movie title, that's acceptable. If it was looking at the properties of the pics to get the title, that's unacceptable. George

It's the first line, if you don't count the opening chorus. George

Not a bad deal, but don't forget to check the "drive-out" price. Houston hotels have something like a 14% tax to pay for our sports arenas. George

Yeah, you Dallasites would like that wouldn't you? With Houston gone, you'd be Texas's #5 city! Actually, most of the models I've seen seem to bear down on New Orleans. George

It appears that you've essentially given the whole plot, and I still don't remember the episode. George

I met a girl a month ago George

Robert Burns? George
