Sudo, I guess I'm a day late, but not a dollar short! Enjoy the concert!! George

That's an acceptable substitute. George

My guess is that it's an mp3 file, not a wmv or wav. George One last Bat-Fink item: this pic of B-F and Karate. George

Okay, then. Pirate, you're up! George

"nun" is correct. The last pic is showing up fine for me. Can the rest of you see it? George

There are times when I miss Chicago. Winter isn't one of them. The last time I was home for Christmas (about 20 years ago) it was 25 below with a wind chill of 85 below! My family is welcome to visit ME for Christmas, but unless someone in the family dies, they won't see me in Chicago in December or January again! Seriously, graduation is a GOOD thing, and your daughter will be fine. George

That's a bit harsh! :o George

Well, not brilliant, but doable. George

I'll come up with something brilliant tonight. George

Okay, fine. Since hiway didn't know and Steve! isn't around anymore (growing up near Chicago when I did, he might have seen this EARLY Saturday mornings), the answer is Bat-Fink! Bat-Fink was actually a wingless bat. He had an Asian sidekick named Karate. (How blissfully un-PC we were!) Karate's dad was a blacksmith who made Bat-Fink steel wings. Whenever someone would shoot at him, Bat-Fink would curl his wing in front and use the line above. (Except for the time he was shot with an amnesia ray. Then it was, "Your thing-a-ma-jig cannot harm me; my whatchacallits are like a something of, er, you know!") He also drove the "Batillac," which was equiped with a "thermonuclear, plutonium-insulated, (fill in the blank) shield. As silly as The Tick, and pre-dated him by about forty years. George

Looks like we need more help, Sharon! George

Sharon, is Pirate correct? George

I think Tom (who clearly hates posting pics) is stalling, so I'll jump in with "Pocahontas." (Not a bad puzzle, actually, though I wouldn't have got it without the hints.) George

For those of you just tuning in, my avatar was Batman until I found the Green Lantern pic I like. Anyway, drawing on a memory from forty years ago, Grandma and I would actually roast the chestnuts over a fire in the fireplace in a kind of wire basket. I don't recall any particular amount of time, but th chestnuts were hot and tender when done. It was probably trial-and-error. George

Here's one that probably only hiway29 will get (if anyone): What cartoon character used the following phrase at least once an episode: Your weapons cannot harm me; my wings are like a shield of steel! George

Rick, Your song is definitely a Herb Alpert tune. I'm pretty sure it's the one about a Mexican form of transportation! ;) George

Got me stumped, too, unless we're using non-English words (hearts = amar): "Amarcord"? George

I doubt that you could get ANYTHING on your list from Way Productions. My guess is that all of the people are "persona non grata" and all evidence of their existences has been expunged. George

Hey George. Click the following link and see if you can't find one. http://images.google.com/images?q=green+lantern&hl=en Rick Thanks for the tip, Bluzey! I didn't know I could just add a pic from my computer. I wonder if there are any copyright concerns? George

A lab I used to work in had fume hoods so loud we used to call them "the cone of silence"! Someone standing next to you would talk, and you could see his lips move but not hear a word! George

I used to roast chestnuts at my grandmother's place, years ago. What a fun memory! George

I think I can prove that the increase in promiscuity, etc., can be shown to be caused by an increase in the number of people who confuse correlations with cause/effect relationships. George

Hey, Boys and Girls, I'm BAAAACK! :wacko: Any new quizzes, 'n stuff? (I only read back a page. Kathy's link to Sudo's story was helpful.) This new site takes some getting used to, but it seems to have some more powerful features. Now if I can just find a "Green Lantern" avatar, or maybe the whole "Justice League." George

No so easy, I guess. :blink: George

"The Blues Brothers"? George
