Here it is a little easier: Abandoned Jewish boy, raised by a wealthy family, grows up, leaves home, and spends most of the rest of his life ticking off his adoptive grandfather. George

"Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid"? George

All the predictions I've seen for this one send it up into the Atlantic. Such predictions have been wrong, of course; but I wouldn't get too worried just yet! George

four pics (two on the first line); need names George

"Stand by Me" by Ben E. King? George

It was "The Cloudminders." Two cultures: one living in the clouds and full of peace dn beauty, the other in teh mines on teh planet below, brutal. Of course, Kirk realizes that it's the material being mined which causes the dull, brutal nature and brings the leader of the cloud people to find out firsthand (by trapping them both in a mine). Kirk has trouble defeating the old, slender, man with no martial training in hand-to-hand combat. Free shot for anyone who wants it! George

I haven't seen this, but the "single mother" and black slang would possibly suggest "How Stella Got Her Groove Back"? George

Tequila/Jose/Cuervo Yam/sweet/potato Debbie/Reynolds hmmm... George

"Look what I got." "What is it? What is it?" "My college formula." "Aaw, I thought it was ice cream." "Kiss my cottontail!" George

"Police Squad"? George

Hey, Babe! Missed you at the BBQ last year. Hope you can make it again this time! Happy Birthday, George

Rhino, Dow told me in January that I was retiring in June. But, there's a good separation package and a partial pension, so we're not hurting. I just don't feel like really retiring yet. A few more years in industry, and then maybe "retiring" to teach at a junior college or small university. If you took color film to a fast-film developer, they probably used Photo Chelate in their process, and I've worked on that. Also a number of food items (mostly soft drinks and sauces) contain calcium disodium EDTA (or calcium disudium edetate), another compound I worked on. I did not invent these compounds, I just improved Dow's processes to make them. George

"Electricity use is the main source of mercury emissions in the U.S. CFLs use less electricity than incandescent lights, meaning CFLs reduce the amount of mercury into the environment. As shown in the table below, a 13-watt, 8,000-rated-hour-life CFL (60-watt equivalent; a common light bulb type) will save 376 kWh over its lifetime, thus avoiding 4.5 mg of mercury. If the bulb goes to a landfill, overall emissions savings would drop a little, to 4.2 mg. EPA recommends that CFLs are recycled where possible, to maximize mercury savings." Actually, electricity USE is not a source of mercury emissions at all. (What? When I turn on a switch, mercury magically appears?) Coal-fired electricity GENERATION may well be the major source of mercury emissions, due to traces of mercury in the coal. (In other countries, mercury is still used in gold mining, so that's a MAJOR local mercury emission source.) The answer, of course, is either better mercury recovery (and many technologies are now in place), or go to non-coal power sources (nuclear, wind, solar -- natural gas works, too; but that's better as a chemical raw material).

We're definitely staying in the Houston area to be near the kids and grandkids. Had my retirement party this evening. It was a fun time, with co-workers, local friends, family, and friends from Houston (and essentially no bosses). George

You're up! George

Probably need a few more lines, here... George

Since no one picked up on Raf's clue, I'll continue, "Marry Freddy!? What an infantile idea, what a heartless, wicked, brainless thing to do. She'll regret it. She'll regret it! It's doomed before they even take the vow." "Why can't a woman be more like a man?" "You're magnificent. Five minutes ago, you were a millstone around my neck, and now you're a tower of strength, a consort battleship. I like you this way." "She's so deliciously low. So horribly dirty." "It's the new small talk. You do it so awfully well." George
