  1. Right. But Anne Murray didn't write "Daydream Believer." Neil Diamond did write "I'm a Believer." George
  2. Sudo, With the pasing of Don Knotts, that song has been heard quite a bit lately. What a fine show. Times were simpler then. George
  3. I thought so. Hopefully, someone else will get it, too. George
  4. Neil Diamond recorded his hit "I'm a Believer" after the Monkees, if I remember correctly. George
  5. The band was Manfred Mann's Earth Band (the 70's version of 60's group Manfred Mann, famous for "Do Wah Ditty" and "The Mighty Quinn") What made this song special? I dunno. George
  6. It sounds a lot like Haydn or Handel (not quite inventive enough for Mozart). As to who may have performed it in the 60's -- no idea. It does remind me of several disco "remakes" of some classics: "Thus Spake Zarathustra"*; "Night on Disco (Bald) Mountain"; and my favorite, "Joy," a peppy version of "Jesu, Joy of Man'd Desiring." George * best known these days as the theme from "2001: A Space Odyssey"
  7. I was a little confused about those two as well, but it was my best guess. Anyway: George
  8. Ken, It seems that most of us know the name of the western, so go ahead and give it away! George P.S. I knew this one when I first heard it. I just didn't hear it until now!
  9. Kathy's second pic was from "Dr. Strangelove," or more properly, "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb." George
  10. Ah, but Bruce Campbell has a charm all his own. I loved his work in "Xena" and "Jack of All Trades," as well as "Brisco County, Jr." And you've got to love the title of his autobiography: If Chins Could Kill. George
  11. He's insinuating that it's from "Babes in Toyland." George
  12. Okay, to wake the rest of you up (and to move this thread to the top -- so there, Sudo, nyah, nyah!), here's one that SHOULD give it away: My father hung me on a hook once...ONCE! George
  13. If I were to make a wild, wild guess, I'd say it's a western. B) George
  14. I doubt tht this is right, but could it be "Mississippi Squirrel Revival" by Ray Stevens? George
  15. When I was young (pre-teen), I had a few recurring nightmares, involving either my being chased or being abandoned. They just vanished; I don't know why. I do, occasionally, have a "boogeyman" dream; but they are usually presaged by my inability to turn on the lights. I know then that it's a dream and either wake up or "direct" the dream to something more interesting. I occasionally have the "back-in-school" dream, where I'm not sure how to get to my next class. My last real class was 25 years ago, so some things linger quite a while. A more recent variant of that dream has been my coming to a band rehearsal (or concert) and being unable to find my instrument or the music. I occasioanlly also have "bathroom" dreams, where I'm looking for a rest room. I doubt there's much psychology involved, because when I wake up I really DO have to use the bathroom! And, yeah, Chef. Sometimes I dream I'm naked in public. At least nobody's laughing!! George
  16. Interesting choice of words... :D Actually, it wasn't bad, though I didn't feel like clapping along. George
  17. Which means, TOTW, that you get to give the next clue! George
  18. I don't recognize it at all. Which is odd, if it's been done several times. :unsure: George
  19. It's an 88 Magnum. It shoots t'rough schools! George
  20. I agree with hiway about Fizzies. The carbonation was all they had going for them. They tasted awful. I think his "new" batch was probably the same, he just might not remember how they really used to taste. :( George
  21. Raf likes to take the weekend off. He'll have something for us soon. George
  22. Sounds like "Pirates of the Caribbean" to me. George
