  1. The fountain isn't the clue. WHERE is the fountain? I'm heading off for vacation. I'll PM Raf with the answer. Dooj is somewhat close. George

    Two Years

    Thank YOU, Belle, for all the joy and insight you've brought us! George :wub:
  3. Coffee flavored kisses and a bit of conversation. George Back atcha, Sharon!
  4. I post pictures of two accomplished actresses, and all you can see is breasts? You disgust me!!! George
  5. That's the alternative title. Surely you recognize the fountain! George
  6. The only time we have free is Saturday night. I'm also staying Sunday night due to the scarcity of good flights. Not ideal hummingbird watching time. The NCB AND the convention were in Normal two years ago. Definitely a quiet town, especially when school's out. I was able to get some old friends from U of Illinois to come to that concert, though, so it wa a good time. (And I spent time in Chicago with my brothers and sisters, too.) George
  7. All wonderful versions, though I can't place any of the voices. The last might be William Warfield, but I don't know about his being a Communist. I'm disappointed that none of the versions included my favorite verse: Methuselah lived 900 years. Methuselah lived 900 years. But who calls that livin' When no gal would give in To no man what's 900 years. George
  8. Of course, Bobby Darin is most famous for that song, and Louis Armstrong had a hit with it, too. Ella actually forgot some of the words and was making up lyrics on the fly: "Bobby and Louis made a record; Ella and her fellas made a wreck!" Gotta love it. George
  9. If I have this straight, Paw got Tom's clue, and Sharon got Paw's. I believe Sharon's is "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia" by Vicki Lawrence. George
  10. Michael Caine Sleuth Lawrence Olivier George
  11. Meg Ryan The Presidio Mark Harmon George
  12. Lauren Hutton Zorro, the Gay Blade George Hamilton George
  13. In my younger years (say, pre-25), I probably would have done the same thing the truck driver did. In my bolder years, I would have thought, "What the heck" and asked you out. Maybe you need that boldness, too. If you make the first move, you can set the ground rules. If there's a spark there, go for it. (Of course, as many have pointed out, don't be an idiot!) George And you're so hot, I'M having trouble thinking!
  14. The "National Community Band," made up of community band members from around the country, will perform "Sousa on the Strip," a band concert in the style of John Philip Sousa, this Sunday afternoon (7/23) at 3:30 PM at the Judy Bayley Theater on the campus of UNLV. I've been a member of the National Community Band ever since its inception 22 years ago. (I play baritone saxophone.) The band is organized in conjunction with the biennial National Band Association convention, though this year the actual convention was in Normal, IL, last month. :blink: Band members receive the music in May to work on individually, and then there is a series of intense rehearsals of the whole band right before the concert. (This year, we have a rehearsal Friday night, two on Saturday, and one on Sunday before the performance!) The concert should be excellent. The selections look fun (lots of marches, of course, and other Sousa Pieces, but also overtures and solo pieces); and we have a lot of great musicians and a top-notch conductor. All we need is an audience. So, be there! It will be too hot to do anything else, anyway. And, before I forget ... IT'S FREE!!! George
  15. This is my favorite Ella song. Oddly, it was her only Top 40 hit. Ella George I'm not getting the link to post right, but if you click this link you can click the little speaker icon and play it.
  16. No need to apologize for liking the movie, Tom! George
  17. Anthony Hopkins The Mask of Zorro Catherine Zeta Jones George
  18. Knowing the answer, I can "retrofit" the clues. The last picture doesn't come up, but the properties say it's a Shah. So MA'AM (or MUM, or MOM) + "MWAH"s + GAY + SHAH. George And Tom, I ONLY look at properties if I can't see a picture!
  19. The lion was by its DEN. It was the sneaker that I couldn't get. (I wasn't thinking about HI-top.) Yes, Dooj, I knew it; and Tom probably did, too. But we knew YOU would have a better puzzle to post! George
  20. I'm pretty sure I know what the movie is from the first and last clues. Too bad a couple of the pics didn't come up. George

    A lot of my buddies and I put on an annual "Thank God I'm not a Pig" roast down here, and we've been doing it on a Saturday in early October. We'll have to make sure it doesn't conflict with Ex10's gig! George
