Hm. There were action figures. It was the right decade for action figures. And not all of them were made by Mego, just most of them. The show had a main character, and a spin-off. The main character was an action hero. *thinks* I'm going with "the Six Million Dollar Man." That had a spinoff- "the Bionic Woman." There were action figures of Steve Austin- I had one- and of Oscar something. (Goldman- I had to look up the cast's names.) There was also one of Maskotron. He was a robot bad guy who could be disguised as Steve or Oscar, or wear his own face. I never saw those in stores, but they were advertised on the box of the SA figure, and of the space capsule/bionics operating theater playset. I don't remember the boxes showing an action figure for the Bionic Woman.

"Work all night on a drink of rum."

I meant, on the album, the official title was "Baba O'Riley" because that's what was written on the cover. Thus, my usage of the past tense. No relation to the Swami Sali Maharishi Baba, or Sali Baba for short.

I was going to apologize for not being able to clear the table, but you didn't ask for that. OK, here's what I know, titles and artists.... 1) George Michael's "Careless Whisper." 2) Forgot the artist. 3) Chumbawumba's "Tub-thumping." 4) Forgot the title (we all know the artist.) 5) Tina Turner's "Proud Mary." 6) 4 Non-Blondes with "What's Up?" (To avoid confusion with Marvin Gaye's song.) 7) The Proclaimers, with "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" 8) Eric Carmen's "Make Me Lose Control". 9) No idea. 10) The Who's "Baba O'Riley". But I can't answer 2, 4, or 9, so if someone could finish clearing the table, for bragging rights?

Human, if you don't answer, I will.

That would be The Who with "Teenage Wasteland." (The official title was "Baba O'Riley".) First song on "Who's Next".

I'll call this one answered. It is the Goo Goo Dolls. This was their second hit but their BIGGEST hit, "Iris." You remember the song and its chorus well, but the title is not in the song's lyrics. I thought of "iris" as a reference to the eye, and there's mention of how the world sees him. That's my answer, and I prefer it to the official answers. The previous song was "Slide". That and "Dizzy" never seem to get much attention, but I think they're underrated, especially when "Black Balloon" and "Broadway" are off the same album ("Dizzy Up the Girl") and they get more airplay but are lesser songs in my opinion. Go, Human!

Oh, you should never doubt what nobody is sure about. It IS The Frisco Kid. Avram's misadventures included help from the Pennsylvania Dutch, being kidnapped by some nice Indians (you'll have to see that scene to do it justice, but there were 2-3 scenes with them, and resting in a monastery. For a rabbi, he spent a lot of the movie encountering people with different beliefs- and was actually helped by each of them. (Even the Indians, who had no reason to trust any Caucasians.) Avram refused to violate the Sabbath even when it could kill him. It's no shock that he graduated 77th out of 78 students in his yeshivah. Go, George!

The first exchange was Stuart and Denise. They were at the comic book store and the streets seemed oddly empty. The second was Mark Hamill, wedding officiant, stalling to buy time for Sheldon and Amy to show up. Georgie (Sheldon's older brother) is a tire mogul in Texas. He asked that question. Raj and his father. Raj kept drawing a HEFTY allowance from his RICH Dad. Despite that, Raj still had trouble starting relationships, let alone keeping them. Sheldon was mad that Bert, the Geology guy, got an award. He was unable to just get over it. Sheldon and Leonard and a not-uncommon exchange. Sheldon and Amy Farrah Fowler, with Sheldon "improving" their wedding photos. Amy planned her wedding, and had a job for everyone, the most important of which was keeping her mother busy and not interfering with the wedding. Mrs Wolf recognized the clue from Raj's scavenger hunt pretty quickly. They had been sent from the Riddler display at the comic book store to the next stop, and that was the next clue. So, take it away, George!

Correct-amundo!

CORRECT!

I like this song. I'm going to pivot anyway. Same artists, different song. "And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming, Or the moment of truth in your lies, When everything feels like the movies Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive."

How old is this show, and what do you know about the interests of these people?

The correct spelling is "Airplane!" . The answer is correct nevertheless. Go, George!

"Yeah, it’s weirdly quiet. Nobody’s in the street." "Huh, that’s strange." "You thinking what I’m thinking?" "They cut that meteorite open and unleashed a space plague." "Exactly." "Let me just lock up here." "Okay, so what do we do?" "Uh, well, if this is a worst case scenario and we’re the last two people alive we’re gonna have to rebuild civilization." "Do you have any special skills?" "I can draw. How about you?" "I can play clarinet." "I didn’t know that." "Yeah. Ten years. Ah." "You know, it, uh, might also be up to us to repopulate the earth." "I’m okay with that." "So shall we?" "Wait here. I’m gonna brush my teeth." "Does anyone have any questions?" "I do. Why are there no tires in Star Wars?" "You're an adult who can't get by without an allowance from his parents. Women don't want that." "What are you saying? That you're giving up on me? What kind of father gives up on his son?" "I have six children, five of whom are married and self-sufficient. I don't think I'm the problem." "Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow..." "What happened?" "I tried to let go of anger, and threw a rock into my foot." "Then, he got more angry and kicked the rock with his other foot." "What?! And what happened to you?!" "Oh, I laughed so hard, I burst a blood vessel in my nose! It's fine!" "You're probably wondering why I put you through this." "You mean the last two minutes or the last twenty years?" "Hey, watcha doing?" "Improving our wedding photos." "Oh, that's nice. Wait, I'm still in them, right?" "Of course. And not only you. I've added some guests who couldn't be there." "Who's that next to my father?" "The Wright brothers." "And why are they at our wedding?" "Orville, because I admire him; Wilbur, because he was Orville's plus-one." "Now we got a lot of family coming in tomorrow. I'm gonna need everyone's help. Think of this as one of your comic book movies. There's a bunch of superheroes, each with a different task." "Oh, like the new Avengers." "Which one was that?" "The one you slept through last weekend." "Ah. That was a good nap." "I think it's more like, uh,... like Lord of the Rings, and you're the Fellowship. Someone's gotta go to Gondor, someone's gotta go to Mordor, someone's gotta hold off the Demon of Shadow and Flame." "You mean the Balrog?" "I mean my mother." "It says here to 'Leave no stone unturned.' " If you're wondering if this is a show primarily about people who share a workplace, or about a group of friends, the answer is "yes." Obviously, over time, neither is an absolute- you can find regular characters who are not friends and/or do not share the same workplace.

I'm confident you've watched this show.

Um... judges? Can I get a more specific answer than that?

This is possibly the movie with the most Yiddish spoken in the background, and even in the foreground. (As opposed to movies where it was spoken for 1 scene for about 30 seconds, this one has Yiddish in several scenes.) One of those scenes has Yiddish spoken to the Pennsylvania Dutch! Surprising no one, they did not understand any of it. It also includes a Native American reading Hebrew. ("I did not understand one word.") As a come-from-behind story, it had a strong beginning- the protagonist graduated 87th out of 88 students. In this movie, there are 2 main actors, one of them fairly famous and the other one very famous. In this movie, the fairly famous one falls sick and is nursed back to health by an Amish/Pennsylvania Dutch community. In a different movie, the very famous actor falls sick and is nursed back to health by an Amish community. This movie is a PG movie. However, print errors have led a lot of people (myself included) to think it was rated "R" because it was incorrectly labelled in a home movie release. The "title character" was, technically, accused of a crime he didn't commit. The fairly famous actor had previously played a role where that happened. And he later played 3 more movies with 3 more roles where that happened. (Not counting movies where it didn't happen.) It has almost the same name as a movie released decades before, but is not connected to it and, other than some similarities in setting, bears no resemblance to the previous movie. The "title character" has $50 swindled from him, and later goes to collect his $200. This was not an error, nor a lie. He was robbed of $150 after being swindled (only counting his money.) The sharp-eyed may notice a few errors in the props in the movie, but the average viewer will not (firearms errors, horse errors.) However, any Jew should know the concept of Pikuach nefesh. That is a principle of Jewish law that states that saving a (human) life overrides observation of the Sabbath. So, if your life is in immediate danger, you may travel to escape the immediate danger. If a friend's life is in danger, you may act to defend him. (And defending yourself with violence on the Sabbath is expected.) In each of these cases, an observant Jew is REQUIRED to break the Sabbath because the preservation of human life is preeminent over virtually all other religious rules of Judaism. Someone who knows this may think certain parts of the movie don't make sense. Then again, in history, there have been devout Jews who observed the Sabbath and did NOT observe Pikuach nefesh- to their own sorrow, so the error may not have been a writing error, but a character error/flaw. The same can be said about how he interprets the Sabbath beginning and ending, I'm sure it's pretty rare for a rabbi to have a bank robber as the best man at his wedding.

That is not this movie.

This next movie is NOT "the Wizard of Oz." I repeat, NOT "the Wizard of Oz." Nor any variation on that story, nor is it inspired by that story. If your answer in any way reminds people of the Wizard of Oz, your answer is incorrect. Cross out all such guesses before posting. (That phrasing is not a clue, that's just me being frustrated and trying to lawyer out a lot of incorrect guesses.) "Auntie Em, Uncle Henry, Toto! It's a twister! It's a twister!" "What was it we had for dinner tonight?" "Well, we had a choice of steak or fish." "Yes, yes, I remember, I had lasagna." " I just wanna tell you both: good luck. We're all counting on you." " I just wanna tell you both: good luck. We're all counting on you." " I just wanna tell you both: good luck. We're all counting on you." "Nervous?" "Yes." "First time?" "No, I've been nervous lots of times." "Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drinking."

"Yeah, it’s weirdly quiet. Nobody’s in the street." "Huh, that’s strange." "You thinking what I’m thinking?" "They cut that meteorite open and unleashed a space plague." "Exactly."

"Kramer Vs Kramer" was about a couple having a divorce. The couple had kids. I saw a piece of the movie. The Dad told a kid to put on his shoes, and the kid showed up in sneakers. The Dad sent him back to change to shoes. The kid insisted he was wearing shoes. "Those are not shoes. Those are shoe substitutes." So, the couple had at least 1 kid. That's the limit of what I know. Imdb will have more information if you want to follow up on it. Wikipedia also, I think.

"Could you whisper in my ear The things you wanna feel? I'd give you anything To feel it comin'. Do you wake up on your own, And wonder where you are? You live with all your faults." "I want to wake up where you are. I won't say anything at all." "Don't you love the life you killed? The priest is on the phone. Your father hit the wall. Your ma disowned you. I don't suppose I'll ever know What it means to be a man. It's something I can't change. I'll live around it." "And I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete, Little pieces of the nothing that fall. Oh, May. Put your arms around me. What you feel is what you are And what you are is beautiful. Oh, May. Do you want to get married or run away?"
