  1. I can't speak for anyone else, but my "youthful enthusiasm" wasn't based on arrogance but on a desire to help others with what helped me. I never bought into the "TWI is the only source of truth" nonsense; but I did believe it was the best thing out there. Oh, and Belle, to this day I've never done drugs. :) George
  2. Interestingly, I am a direct descendant (on my mother's side) of Brian Boru, also. The episode is seeming much more familiar, but not enough of the real plot to go on, yet. George
  3. The classic "death of Chuckles the Clown" episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show. George
  4. That's the one! Buck threatened "Bug" with a hatchet, a power drill, and a golf club. He didn't actually threaten the elementary school principal with a rat, but suggested that she get one to chew her mole off! The high school scenes were shot at New Trier West High School in Northfield, IL. The West campus was opened to handle the baby boomers in the New Trier school district. With the ensuing decline in enrollment, the West campus was closed, so it was available for the film. Since then, it was used as a junior college campus for a while; now it's the freshman campus for the high school (with New Trier East handling the upperclassmen). Some other New Trier graduates can be seen HERE (near the bottom of the page) George
  5. Yes. I figured that if you watched "Psych," you probably watch other USA series, as well. George
  6. Reminds me of "the good, old days," too. We had something that blessed us, and we wanted to share it with others. (I have a jack, and I WILL help you!) He'll find out, eventually. I hope it doesn't quell his desire to serve God. George
  7. Interesting comparison. I only met Ricao a couple of times, and he was quite ingratiating. (But then, so were Vic and Loy, when they wanted to be). Definitely have to agree here. I knew Robin when she lived in Houston. Bright (degree in biochemistry or biology, I forget which), easy on the eyes, and a sweetheart. Hard to figure out how she's stayed in Wayland so long. George
  8. I'm tempted to guess that this was an interaction between Neelix and Tuvok (perhaps the Voyager episode where they were trapped together); but WW's aversion to Voyager makes me doubt it. George
  9. No. This movie is a comedy. Its star died in 1994. (Hard to believe it's been that long.) George
  10. No, but good guess. This is a more recent show. George
  11. Uh, NIS, it appears you skipped a step. How did you get from Kevin Costner to Mary McDonnell? George
  12. Okay. Maybe the last clue isCafe, Diner, or Drive-in, but it still doesn't remind me of any TV show. George
  13. Sean Young No Way Out Kevin Costner George
  14. Yeah, but "Crusty Burger" doesn't work for me, either (unless it's a Krusty Burger, and an allusion to the Simpsons, but that's not how this game is played). George
  15. "For a job like getting rid of the drug dealer next door, I'll take a hardware store over a gun any day. Guns make you stupid. Better to fight your wars with duct tape; duct tape makes you smart." George
  16. Not that this is likely to help most of you, but several scenes from the movie were filmed at my high school. George
  17. Alan Rickman Die Hard Bonnie Bedelia George
  18. Darn! I didn't even get to the part where Picard walks out of Admiral Satie's inquisition after she browbeats an innocent half-Romulan. (Her past success at ferreting out a conspiracy was much akin to "Mutiny on the Bounty.") Well done, WW. You're up. George
  19. "I do not know how you managed to transfer secret information to the Romulans... but I will find out." "Pahtak -- !" "And when we inform the Klingon High Council, they will put you to a slow death." "Are you... aware... of any other Romulan-Klingon connections that Starfleet Command might have encountered recently?" "I don't believe... what Starfleet Command knows or doesn't know is for me to reveal." George
  20. Okay. You're not the only person who's seen Mama Mia this summer. But I haven't. George
  21. NG. I forget the exact title, but it's something like "10011001". "Binars" hijack the ship to use its computer banks to store all their world's info during some big EMP event. They use a holosuite hottie ("Minuet") to keep Riker on board, because they will need someone to reboot them, later. George
  22. Dana, This is the right thread (Friend Tracker) to look for people. If you had any Corps friends you might also try those threads. A couple of websites that I have found useful for tracking down old friends are Intelius and Zabasearch. (Switchboard.com is helpful, too.) Best wishes, George
