Correct! But at the beginning of the sequel, the ghost activity had died down (no pun intended.) So, the guys were doing other jobs. Ray and Winston were dressing in their uniforms and doing children's parties. The kid wanted He-Man and got the Ghostbusters instead. They began a dance number to the theme song, and sang along. When they got to " Who you gonna call?" the kids shouted "HE-MAN!!!!" I saw a setup and I felt the urge to go for it. Meanwhile, it's your turn.

HE-MAN!!!!!!

Hey- sneering at us is part of his being part of another group. To be a part of the other "us", he needs "them" to look down on- which includes us. So, he'll continue to spin it that it was an honor to have been refuted here- and that he was never refuted here, and so on. But the whole "those who disagree with us don't want to know the truth" is CLASSIC cult talk. It's such a telltale sign of being in one, and I've heard it a number of times over the years. -
Some people get wiser as they get older. Some just seem to get older. Although, I think they get a little wiser, but they're so unwise overall that it doesn't appear like they gained ANY wisdom since they were still unwise afterwards. Even those I know who are clumsy with tech know how to get in touch with their families.

Perhaps he didn't MEAN to pull his leg. cg claimed he was ready to act as a human shield in case someone attempted to assassinate vpw. I think he really thought this was something he needed to do. Perhaps he convinced himself of that, and added some sordid past to his head where he was a drug runner before encountering vpw or something. I remember him once commenting on how some people seemed to compete with how much they were delivered from when they got born again. I've never heard of people doing that otherwise- perhaps cg was doing it and that's why it was on his mind.

It wasn't that long ago that mailing was the best way to have lengthy communications with someone in another country. Then it was email and then instant messaging. I remember celebrating on New Years Eve with 2 households, with a videocamera that had no sound, and typing quickly to communicate, or using visuals (like raising a toast.) Then IM services had added video chat, and Skype came along, and the past month or so Zoom was catapulted into center stage (plus WhatsApp and Facetime are around, too.) I'm quite comfortable video-chatting with family and friends. I know some kids are using Discord for audio-only groups, but I haven't gotten around to that. Still, with a good connection for audio and video, you can interact quite a bit with loved ones in a way you couldn't do (or at least I couldn't do) until the beginning of the 21st century (or end of the 20th for the early adopters who were ahead of me.) In that regard, things have really changed for the better. There's a certain irony that some of the elderly could GREATLY benefit from regular use of Skype, Zoom, WhatsApp, and quite often they're very reluctant to try them, as if they're radioactive or something.

Paul Rodriguez said the same thing. "What's wrong with Gilligan AND the Skipper? Why's nobody gotten it on with Mary Ann yet?" He speculated trying to overpopulate the island. "Yeah, Mary Ann! Yeah Ginger!....Bring Mrs Howell too, while we're at it..."

Actually, there's TWO bands, both with the same name. One's a local band, the other's from Germany, apparently. https://wcfcourier.com/features/lifestyles/local-band-goes-from-hard-rock-to-living-room-mellow/article_fdaba513-33e5-5001-ada9-75c05c627e8b.html https://www.majorhealey.de/ The show was done by Sidney Sheldon, and was called "I Dream of Jeannie." Andrew Dice Clay wondered what was wrong with Major Nelson that he never wanted her to do anything. He had his own ideas of what to do if you owned a female genie. "I want you to make your tongue about 10 feet long..."

Heath Ledger and Shannyn Sossamon were together in "A Knight's Tale" and "The Order." She played alongside Josh Hartnett in "40 Days and 40 Nights," and alongside James Van Der Beek in "the Rules of Attraction." Then she was in some more obscure stuff, apparently. Paul Bettany I remember FROM this movie. I know he played JARVIS and The Vision, but it's hard to recognize him from them.

There was a garage band with the name of one of the non-title characters, if you can believe that.

It is rather comforting to think one has "arrived at The Truth." -
Paul Bettany played Geoffrey Chaucer. Heath Ledger played the title role, SS played Jocelyn, the female lead. Alan Tudyk played a squire to the knight at the beginning (and the title character afterwards.)

You are correct!

No. *checks* Alan Tudyk was in that one, but not the others.

So long as I allow a few minutes for the cloud to disperse before putting it on. Otherwise, I end up huffing Lysol fumes and skipping oxygen and stuff!

Oh, and Waxit's source for he cut-and-paste on the Noahide Laws was from here: http://www.ccg.org/weblibs/study-papers/p148.html?craw=y http://www.ccg.org/english/S/a1.html Hm. Looks like Waxit's entire POV reads like this group's website, especially their Statement of Beliefs.. including judging us in keeping of New Moons and Sabbaths, and in respect of holy days. -

Now, now..... Let's give Waxit the benefit of the doubt (again.) Waxit may not understand the difference between dumping a link and assigning homework with including your source. A) This is not recommended on the GSC.... "The answer to your questions is on www dot website A dot com, and if you want to understand, you'll read there." That's not recommended because it's not DISCUSSION. It's dumping a link and avoiding discussion. It's assigning homework and pretending you discussed something. B) This is recommended on the GSC... " The answer to your question is explored fully on www dot specific page dot org, and I'll post the important point here right now...." That's supplying your source, which is recommended for a number of reasons, while still having the discussion here in the discussion forum. C) This is not recommended on the GSC... " I have a source for my comments, but I'm going to keep it my little secret." People can't see if you're representing it fairly, they can't check the context, and they can't vet the sources. They know you said it, and you have no proof you didn't originate it. Someone once accidentally gave a bad misquote. vpw never played professional basketball. What he did was INSINUATE (suggest, make leading comments, imply) that he played for the Sheboygan Redskins. His actual words in TW-LiL were that he was "involved with the Sheboygan Redskins." That's incredibly vague. Was he their designated driver? Was he their waterboy? Did he work part-time where they practiced? Did he buy them ice cream when they won games? The idea was that people would THINK he played for them without him actually SAYING he did. It was deceptive and dishonest, but legal (although unethical and immoral.) Someone later said they had documentation he DID play for them. He didn't provide the link, but said to look for a search result for "Sheboygan Redskins in the NBL," When I went there, I found an article that claimed vpw had played for the Sheboygan Redskins. I checked their source. It was the single comment in TW-LiL. So, the proof his comment in TW-LiL meant that he played for the team was true was the comment he made in TW-LiL. That's NOT how documentation works, of course. But without posting the link, the poster ACCIDENTALLY failed to document, and led people to believe vpw didn't deceive people about that (although he actually decieved them.) So, yes, post the link- but only in front of your actual discussion of that point. BTW, just cut-and-paste of what they said without your own words isn't "discussing", either. -

Some people automatically cut all figures in half. 3 feet or more is important because exhalations are a big concern about passing diseases right now. So, 3 feet to avoid someone's exhalations is reasonable. Me, I'm under restrictions when near people or in places of business, but I'm allowed to go maskless at home or in the street if I'm not walking within a meter of anyone. My masks are especially useful in avoiding germs because I spray them with Lysol before I go out, so my risk of exhaling a disease or inhaling one is reduced (it has to pass through cloth that has disinfectant sprayed on it, which improves my odds.)
