I wish I could find the exact quotes from Bob Denver in "Back to the Beach," but they went something like this: "We were trapped on this island with three gorgeous women, but we couldn't touch any of them. And we had a guy who could make a nuclear reactor out of coconuts but couldn't patch a three-foot hole in the boat!" George

Still got me stumped.. (I suppose I could just name movies from the topics list, but I haven't seen any of them except Superman Returns.) George

I think it's the name of a city, Tom, though I wouldn't have guessed without your help! George

I'll be gone until Sunday evening, so if you get it, post another one. George

Time for another clue! George

Vin Diesel The Pacifier Carol Kane George

I'll be gone until late Sunday afternoon. If someone knows the answer, go ahead and post another one. This was the only time I've seen anyone demoted (not just relieved of duty) on a Star Trek show. (Kirk was demoted in the fourth movie.) George

Okay, I'm cutting in. This is only a partial quote, but it's the only TV Star Trek episode where I can remember this happening: "I hereby reduce you to the rank of..." George

That didn't take long, did it? (I'm sure Suda is correct.) George

I figured that that would be easy. My next clue would have been "Pipe down, Otis!" Of course the show could have been either "Andy of Mayberry" or "The Andy Griffith Show." Pipe up, Hiway! George

"You just beat everything! You know that?" George

I don't know the girl, and I haven't watched PBS in years. George

I infer from the "master" reference that it's "I Dream of Jeannie." George

I looked it up. Ca Dreaming is correct. Go, Dreamer! George

Cool! Thanks for the tip! George

No, not the Quarrm creature (that was the sand guy that took half of Supes's powers, wasn't it?). The only thing I can really remember about the Q-radiation story was a Neal Adams cover with Superman nearly unconscious next to a pair of large, flaming "L"s. Of course, there were also beings that could drain Superman's powers. Amazo and the Parasite(s) come to mind. George

Or magic. Or a red sun. Or a green sun. Or Q-radiation. (The last two showed up in the 70's.) George

Dooj, Tom, I don't care, somebody post a new one! George

Seems to be a lot of that going around... :blink: George

And don't forget that "nothing short of a bursting shell" could penetrate his skin! George

Okay. This one will be so easy, I'm going to give a lot of clues, any one of which would give the show away: You bet your bippy! The Flying, Fickle Finger of Fate... Verrrry interesting! Is the party to whom I am speaking? Here comes the judge! Sock it to me. Say "Goodnight," Dick. "Goodnight, Dick." George

This sounds like the "Dick van Dyke" episode I quoted a week or two ago! George

Rene Aubourgenois (sp?) The Patriot Tcheky Karyo (sp?) George

Do we need to know the girl's name to solve the puzzle? George

The Countess and I would like to give our thanks to Ex10 and her better 10-1/2 for hosting the wonderful party. All because Tom and I invited ourselves over to dinner! It was also wonderful to meet so many people in person. T-Bone put it best: It was like Twig the way it should have been, without TWI in the way. (He's working on a polished version for Greasspot Gems!) George
