Mrs Wolf knows him as an actor. Once I asked her, she looked over the clues, and said "US history plus Jason Isaacs" had to add up to "the Patriot."

*looks it up* I know of this band, but I'm unfamiliar with this song and its lyrics.

Yes, those who stopped posting and moved on are GSC success stories. They-and we- moved on with our lives. Those of us who post here do so a few minutes out of the day, and live our lives in the remaining 23 hours and 50 minutes. :)

Hey, Shaz! True- so long as they do enough to justify having a group, they can avoid lifting an additional finger and just live off the interest. The slave labor is a bonus. Rozilla is just running the clock and trying to collect benefits from twi as long as she lives. I expect the others have similar plans. Everyone except the top cadre are EXPENDABLE and receive virtually no benefits in exchange for all the work they put in. If twi manages to stay reasonably close to legal and remains small potatoes, they can avoid official notice and IRS audits. Since they don't care about God or Christians but rather for money, that's what they're focusing on. They have their reward. For now. Later, I expect an accounting will come and it will be exhaustive.

[BTW, if you come here talking AT people, declaring you're right by fiat and anyone who disagrees with you is arguing with God, you won't get anywhere with anyone. We average one of those about every six months, and they all either storm off indignant or begin posting abusively and get kicked out for breaking the rules. (The rules are lenient and forgiving, but they exist.) It is rare when one of them actually stops to listen and dialogue with the rest of us, and realizes they can learn something. The posters here represent a number of different positions and approaches. You can learn from different approaches at the same time, all without following "the party line" because there is none, here. There's a lot to be gained for SLOWING DOWN, and really interacting with everyone else instead of talking AT them. Many have benefited from it in the past, myself included. The choice is yours.] -

Waxit: "In regards to the debate on whether the newly converted gentiles should conform to what the jewish christians were doing (circumcision)in Acts 21:25 25 As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing (circumcision), save only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication. There is absolutely nothing state above in regards to the keeping of the sabbath Why??? Because Sabbath was never an issue They were unified and of one heart in keeping the sabbath." ================================== [Here's another idea. No exception for the Sabbath was mentioned because there was NO exception for the Sabbath. Don't eat things offered to idols, don't eat blood, don't eat things strangled, no fooling around. That was it. As for the idea that everyone was in unity on ANY subject, I can't buy that because all through the Book of Acts (and all of recorded human history) we see divisions of people. Even the early Christians began making divisions ("I'm of Cephas", etc, "You must be circumsized and follow the Mosaic Law", etc.) ] -
Mrs Wolf isn't sure about the swamp, but he was in "THE PATRIOT." Was this it?
-
Ok, since we can search now..... Patty Duke Valley of the Dolls Richard Dreyfuss
-
Ok, the other one. "VIEW TO A KILL'." Catchy theme song.
-
BTW, Voyager had Barclay appear a few times, as well as at least one appearance by Riker and Troi.

Diana Muldaur's remembered as Chief Medical Officer Katherine Pulaski. In TOS, she played Dr Ann Mulhall in "Return to Tomorrow" and Dr Miranda Jones in "Is There in Truth No Beauty?" People keep forgetting she was a TNG regular for one season. (She wishes she could forget it, also.) The regular who appears in "Star Trek: Picard" - I'm sure you can work that one out.....
-
You are correct, sir!
-
Not NCIS, CSI, L&O, or those genres (neither those franchises nor anything like them) Nothing that ever aired on The Food Network, Cooking Channel, etc, nor anything that ever MIGHT air there (not food-related, not cooking-related....). You're correct that the shows have "characters" which eliminates a lot of possibilities. As I said, these shows are in no way based on any comic books (nor graphic novels, and so on).

How about "Live And Let Die"? I've got Mc Cartney's singing, and it's ringing in my head now.

Waxit: "The 7th day Sabbath was universally accepted by all and observed by both Jews,Gentiles and the apostles/leadership Acts 13: 42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought these words might be preached to them the next sabbath. 43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God. 44 And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God." ============================================================================= [Actually, if this is the only place you're getting it from, you're jumping to a conclusion. The synagogue was open on "the Sabbath" for prayer and talking about God. That was expected among the practicing Jews who were not Christians. When some Jews believed and became Christians, the "default" for them automatically would have been to meet on the same day unless they were unable to do so. There's also nothing shocking about a "Christian Jew" going to the synagogue to hear the Torah (Old Testament) being read. That was the only place to do it, and there were no printing presses so no Bibles at home to read from. So, unless they were prevented from doing so, "Christian Jews" would show up at the synagogue on "the Sabbath", listen to the Torah being read, and speaking to devout Jews about the Messiah and preaching Christ to them. They'd want devout Jews to know the coming Messiah had arrived, after all. It's also not terribly shocking that some Gentiles who'd want to hear would follow news of "Christian Jews" (the disciples) would end up near, around, or otherwise at the synagogue to hear. That's where they were, that's where they were teaching, and that's WHEN they were teaching. All of that is simple human nature (force of habit, this is where the Torah is being read so I listen there, this is where they need to hear, so I speak there), and it's not necessary to even get into "Israel was told to respect the Sabbath" to have a reasonable explanation. ] -
No, "the Walking Dead" was based directly on Robert Kirkman's comic/graphic novels of the same name. This round is not on anything from that franchise. The TV shows mentioned in this round are not based on any comic books, for that matter.
-
Ok, surveying my foggy memory... it doesn't sound like "For Your Eyes Only" to me, but I could be wrong. So, let's go with "The Spy Who Loved Me."

Ok, got something. Some shows are sequels or spinoffs of other shows. Some shows are the shows from which other shows spun off. This show is a sequel of a previous show, and has had more than one show either as a sequel or spinoff from this show (depending on how one defines either.) One of its sequels, in fact, is either current or ended fairly recently (it had episodes in 2020.) At least 3 characters from the previous show have appeared in this show, and at least two other actors/actresses from the previous show appeared on this show as well (but not as their previous characters.) We've seen some of this show's characters appear in 2 sequels (as regulars in one of them, as guests in the other.) The current/recent show has/had one of them as well. What is the name of this show?

"James Sinjin Smythe" (James St-John Smythe) was an alias James Bond used in one of the Roger Moore movies. I remember hearing Roger Moore pronouncing that name. That narrows the field considerably. Um, "MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN"?

Waxit: "Rocky, first of all Mark is not my enemy and secondly I definitely do not have the final word on what pleases God. Only the Lord Jesus Christ will judge rigteously in the end Only God knows who will and who will not enter the kingdom of God. I dont know whether you give a hoot about the sabbath which is a really important topic but instead you are picking to comment on something that you should think about before you tap on the keyboard To be honest, I did not want to comment to Mark's reply because I thought he might be in the twilight zone but i thought wait a minute, he needs to be shown so he can think along the correct lines outlined in the word of God So this is actually loving the person enough to show him and not ignore someone. It was not delivered with hatred but love " {Waxit, Welcome to the Grease Spot Cafe! Here, many different opinions and positions are allowed. People can think for themselves and don't usually have to toe a company line. Christians and non-Christians discuss what interests them. It seems like this is as new an experience for you as it is for a lot of ex-twi'ers (as well as those still in.) When you're communicating with people who may not agree with you, it is NOT effective, usually, to get on your high horse and condescend to say that you're right, they're wrong, and they'll have to get with your position or risk displeasing God Almighty. This is a common method of communication for twi innies and survivors. It is largely ineffective outside of twi and twi-style groups. A lot of us posted like that to a greater or lesser degree once- myself included. I recommend you reconsider if you want anyone to agree with you. I might think you have legitimate points to make, but few people will bother to agree with someone whose posting style makes it look like he's full of his own self-importance. It's most likely that you'll slap a label on my post and on me- which will make it easy to dismiss what I'm saying. It's possible you'll consider whether I have a legitimate point. I recommend you think on it. Paul was all things to all men so that by all means he could save some. Perhaps you could benefit from a little flexibility in your communication style.] -

Waxit: "Saturday is universally recognised as the seventh day of the week. Sunday is recognised as the first day of the week." [When I see people's "rationale" for something as "it need not be defended" or "everyone knows this", I tend to get suspicious, It's not how someone explains, it's how someone ducks explaining something. In all the print calendars I've seen for the past decade (and longer), nearly all of them run Monday to Sunday, and posted work schedules have likewise been "Monday to Sunday" Sounds like your position is not " universally recognized." -
Is this "Kingsmen-the Secret Service" ???

YES, And Orson Wells played him back in the Golden Age of Radio. IIRC, Richard Roxburgh played him in "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen." Daniel Davis played him in ST:TNG. And so on. George's turn!

It was, and that's the title and artist for this song. Your turn. Did you know that song was based on an actual event, a fire at a studio by a lake shore?
