Well, there was a movie whose English titile was "Impossible Love," but it was Romanian, so I doubt that's it. (Raf isn't THAT devious!)

George

This series was around before some of you were born. It bugged me but it was popular. HERE

I recognized it immediately. (Which is impressive, since I haven't even seen a rerun of the show in decades!) I also used to read THIS comic book! Amazing how much trouble a little boy can get into.

She would wait and wait and wait and wait for her steady date.

Medical expenses are deductible after some large percentage of your income (I think it's 7%). So if you spend more than 7% of your (gross) income on coffee, maybe you should give it a try. Of course, you'd probably need Valium after all that coffee!

George

Sha-a-a-a-ron!! You're u-u-up!

George

Just a little nitpicking: "tonne" and "ton" are different units of weight. A "tonne" (or "metric ton") is 1000 kg, or 2200 lbs.

George

Cowgirl, I'm embarressed to say I got that in one note. I liked the comic books better.

Again, not having access to the song, but seeing the responses, I can only assume that this was Josie and the Pussycats.

NOT! I do assume it's the song with the redundant, sweet title.

Speaking of 'manufactured' groups, I'm reading a very interesting book about 'the Monkees'-sort of a day by day history of them , focusing on their studio sessions, if you can believe it. They were certainly a product of a television attempt to cash in on the Beatle's success, but to their credit, they group never claimed to be anything else. And with that, they still made some music that made alot of people, including myself, happy, and they did have some genuine talent that eventually went beyond the studio manufactured stuff.

There was a really well-done made-for-TV movie about the Monkees called "Daydream Believers." It showed them to be talented actors who strove to be talented musicians. It was a hoot to see the actors doing all the big scenes from the Monkees' TV show. I believe it's available on DVD now.

I didn't get Cowgirl's song, because I can't open mp3's at work (at least not from bluzecentral). I was certain I hadn't seen the show Sudo posted a link to until I saw the other clues. The show DID stink, although I thought Erin M. was pretty hot.

George

Thanks for the hint

"Hush" by Deep Purple.

George

The train is an "el," so it's something Jungle.

"The Blackboard Jungle"?

George

Spielberg and Tom Cruise appeared in "Austin Powers in Goldmember"

Cruise and Scorsese appeared in "Vanilla Sky."

Since Gwen Stefani played Jean Harlow in "The Aviator," how about

Gwen Stefani/Jean Harlow

George

I had never heard of that movie, but apparently it was about a tattooed man looking for the woman who tattoed him. As soon as Kathy confirms it, I believe it will be your turn.

George

And I only cogitate in private.

I'll have to cogitate on this on a while...

George

P.S. Glad to have you in the game!

He recommends that you do 15 colon cleanses in 30 days. then he lists, 15 different makers of colon cleanses and says to do one of each of them every other day for a month. He also lists each colon cleanse website so to refer you to it. Not taking 'sides' with any of them but to say that if colon cleanses are good, do all of them.

AAAGGHH!!!

He talks about drinking eight glasses of water every day. and he spends time on saying that the water must be 'pure'. [from my experience, we had pure water on subs for feeding the reactor. We were not allowed to drink it, as water purified without ions in it, will mess up your electrolytes. So my understanding is that pure water is bad].

Pure water is fine. You get your electrolytes from other sources (unless your tap water is REALLY hard).

The other stuff is probably okay, though trampolines are unneccesarily dangerous just to get some exercise; and you'll never see me fast for seven HOURS, much less 7-30 days.

Quack Quack!!!

George

Yeah. I looked for a "Cone of ..." thread and didn't see it. No fair using another title!

George

You are correct! (UP + DOWN + SATYR + Doris DAY + Ted KNIGHT = UPTOWN SATURDAY NIGHT.)

Your turn!

George

If you think you know it, give it a shot! (Unlike the Nostalgia Thread, we usually don't keep stringing along until someone gets it, though Raf and I might hold back to let others get involved.)

George

I guess I'm up, then. Try this:

George

Kathy, I believe it's Raf's turn.

I think your puzzle is "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes"; but I'll wait to see what Raf wants to do before posting further.

George

I don't know how Raf posted links to the "cones,"but I had to point out that there was indeed another tropical storm in the Atlantic. My stepson mentioned it, and I thought he was kidding; but there it was. Zeta! It actually achieved (weak) tropical storm status on Saturday. I imagine that that's the latest Atlantic storm on record. Just think -- if it started two days later it would have been a 2006 storm, and probably the EARLIEST on record!

George

Familiar, but I can't place it.

George

George A's list of Mel Brooks movies reminds me of the great stuff Woody Allen did before he got serious. "What's Up, Tiger Lily?" "Love and Death" and "Sleeper" are terrific; "Bananas" and "Take the Money and Run" are less do, but still great movies.

George

Raf has never seen "Traxx." He's just ticked 'cause I used it in "Name that Flick." It really is worth a look.

George

It looks more like mud, but I'm going to guess "Quicksand."

George

That MEANS, Rick, that it's YOUR TURN again!
