"The Distinguished Gentleman"? George

Traxx has sort of been my mantra since using it in the "Name that Flick" thread and getting abuse from Raf because of it. It's an enjoyable spoof of action films. Rent it when you need a chuckle. I also highly recommend "The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra," a sci-fi/horror spoof. George

How did you guess?? :D--> George

I know I'm supposed to wait for confirmation, but it WAS obvious. And I want to try one, especially for Raf: George

He did ANYTHING back then not to be typecast as a pointy-eared alien! George

"Jesus of Montreal." George

I believe most of TWI doctrine (regardless of its original sources), so I picked the penultimate choice, though something about "really accurate" bothers me! ;)--> George

That's what I want to know! I was 19 the beginning of my senior year in college, and I thought THAT was cool. But 17? George

He's been in a lot of movies and TV shows. Here's his write-up in IMDB: Jeff Daniels George

Chances are, if you've posted that much of a song, and nobody gets it, nobody's going to get it! George

That was a hoot! I couldn't make out the voice, so I looked it up. I must admit, I wouldn't have guessed it!! It was the kind of song that Martin Mull would have done years ago. George

"The Island of Dr. Moreau"? George

My turntable and rotary-dial phone are obsolete, too. What's your point? ;)--> George

"Oliver"? George

I thought that "learning revelation the hard way" was to blow revelation, get in trouble, and then remember what God had told you. The next time, hopefully, one would be more attentive. George

This actually IS a rather interesting question. If LCM still thinks of himself as the MOGFOT, then he would not be giving anything. If he has decided that all the tithing stuff he ran down everyone's throat was a scam, then he wouldn't give anything. But, if by some odd quirk he actually BELIEVED what he taught, he should be giving to TWI, because it is, after all, the one true ministry of God. --> ;)--> George

How about "Wipeout"? Then, they would have had to change only ONE word? George

Sounds like "CSI: Camelot"! :D--> George

In the words of Jerry Howard, "Woo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo! Nyuck, Nyuck, Nyuck!" George P.S. In Italian, would that be "Gnucch, Gnucch, Gnucch"?

Bliss, I don't know how good your friends are, so I won't get into the "you don't owe them anything" shtick. When our Founding fathers decided to leave the British Empire, they deemed it appropriate to set forth the reasons that impelled them to the separation. Hence, the Declaration of Independence. Of course, the response to THAT letter was a bit hostile. You may do some of them good by letting them know why you're out, but don't expect a lot of positive response. George

One thing that I've noticed is that the more recently someone has left, the angrier he is (in general). So, if you're still in, you'll probably be REALLY PO-ed when you DO leave! George

They would have changed those words, too; and we'd STILL be having this discussion! --> George

I assume that "Beautiful Ohio" is in the public domain, and so adapting it is not a crime. (As opposed to, say, "Surfin' USA," which was "Sweet Little Sixteen" with different words. It took Chuck Berry about twenty years to get credit for the song.) And it was apparent to me from the very first time I heard the TWI version that it wasn't the original words. George

I had never heard that version before, though I knew about it. Say what you will about Bill S., he has certainly continued to be employed, even after forty-plus years! "Boston Legal" is a stitch! George

Indeed. TWI never claimed it as original. You might as well claim they plagiarized the "Star Spangled Banner" since they used it every day at flag-raising! George
