  1. No guarantee that you finished knowing anything, either. When I first started attending locally, a corpse guy was sent to run the Branch for his interim year. He never fit in, and people just sorta nodded when he said stuff, then went off and did things the way we were supposed to. (He was more decorative than actually LEADING anything.) We were glad when his year was up and he went back to wherever. His replacement was better, but he could hardly have been worse. :)
  2. Is this "THE AVENGERS"? There was a "new Avengers". and the Steed-and-Peel show went though different agents, but Steed was the same through the show's run.
  3. Sherlock Holmes Fu Manchu Grigori Rasputin Marquis St. Evremonde Mycroft Holmes Dr. Ian Mandeville
  4. BTW, now the original video isn't blocked, and the others are all deleted.
  5. I think that's a bit of an exaggeration, but I'll give it a shot. I did look when I saw Human's question. The quick answer I have, based on a quick look, is that the main program for Itunes is free. If he wants the tunes, he PROBABLY will have to pay. I didn't look that far, but I thought it was evident that they have to pay for their service somehow. So, the program is free, and the music files cost money- that would follow the pattern for buying music as opposed to just streaming it/listening to the radio.
  6. *wild swing* "The Big Lebowski"?????
  7. If that's the Magorium who had the Emporium, the actor's DUSTIN HOFFMAN.
  8. All the cops in the donut shop say.......Human is CORRECT. Your turn.
  9. Ok, here's a different song. "If you want to find all the cops They're hanging out in the donut shop. They sing and dance (oh-way-oh). They spin the clubs, cruise down the block."
  10. Colossians 2:4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile(paralogizomai) you with enticing words (pithanologia). ============================================ It's a warning against people whose words don't touch logic, but rather rely on pithy sayings, sloganeering, to answer, rather than addressing something.
  11. "The proof of the pudding is in the eating." "All the proofe of a pudding, is in the eating."- William Camden, 1605.
  12. I've heard of "Gitarzan" and Ray Stevens. This one, not at all. It's possible Raf has instead of me, but that's highly unlikely. Outside of Dr Demento, I doubt this has seen airplay for several decades. I doubt it's played on Dr Demento much, or that Raf would have heard it if it had.
  13. We saw James' name and social security# as they were being deleted from everything, leaving "J" for Agent J. The joke was that MiB monitors aliens on Earth, and their monitor showed all of those celebrities, so they're all space aliens. The sunglasses in the movies are Ray-Ban Predator 2. Will Smith used them in the "Men in Black" music video. The sequel had a scene with Agent J riding a big alien on the (middle) express track. The subway-goers looked when they passed, then went back to looking up the tunnel for their train. It felt authentic.
  14. The characters they have hashed to pieces due to continuity crashes are Power Girl, Donna Troy (Wonder Girl/Troia), and the Hawks (man and girl.) They haven't picked any one thing for any of them and stuck with it. The last one I heard of Power Girl was "she thought she was Atlantean, she was a refugee from another Earth that vanished in one of the Crises. Then again, some other characters may have fared worse. They decided to bring Jason Todd back (after being beaten 1/2 to death with a crowbar, then blown up, his body recovered, and having been examined by Batman and buried. They brought him back (WHY? "Because you could" is not a good reason. His death meant something!) and the eventual reason they found was stupid and contrived. "When someone kept changing reality, Jason woke up in his coffin."
  15. James D. Edwards III's social security number was 905-80-5406. Don't blink or you'll miss the joke about Al Roker, Isaac Mizrahi, Danny DeVito, Sylvester Stallone, Dionne Warwick, Newt Gingrich, and George Lucas. Ray-Ban really appreciated the boost in sales of their Predator 2 sunglasses. They even appeared in the music video. Both this movie and its sequel had some neat scenes in NYC. I loved the subway scene at the beginning of the sequel.
  16. *looks it up* I've definitely never heard of this song, nor this artist.
  17. Let's see. We could add Vibe, Gypsy, Flash and Elongated Man from Flash, Steel and Atom from LoT, Black Lightning, and either Thunder or Lightning, SOMEBODY from the Bat-family (there's lots of possibilities who weren't introduced, plus Bats plus Batwoman), Superman or Supergirl, Martian Manhunter, Green Arrow and Black Canary. So far, no Aquaman or Wonder Woman, but there's going to be a Crisis of INFINITE Earths, so finding one of each to throw into the mix isn't hard. Maybe we'll see someone with the power of Shazam, or a magician like Zatanna or Doctor Fate. It would be neat to see the Phantom Stranger showing up as a Narrator and guide for part of it. Maybe we'd get Vixen. From Justice League Detroit, it seems we're missing Aquaman only (Aquaman, Elongated Man, Zatanna, Steel, Vibe, Gypsy, Vixen, MM.) From the Big 7, we're missing Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and Bats (Superman, Flash, Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter.) Maybe it will mix CoIE with the JL? crisis. Hector Hammond, tricked into doing so by the Advance Man of an alien invasion, tried to get the entire Earth to forget the Justice League of America (with help from the AM's gadget.) When he realized this was to set the stage for an invasion, HH tried to reverse it. He got as far as "REMEMBER THE JUSTICE LEAGUE OF A" before he got clobbered. So, Wonder Woman gathered together Zatanna, Big Barda, etc for the Justice League of Amazons. Superman and Martian Manhunter formed the Justice League of Aliens. Aquaman got together Tempest, Arion and Power Girl as he formed the Justice League of Atlantis. Flash formed the Justice League of Adventure, GL/Kyle formed the Justice League of the Air. (It's not my imagination. Power Girl was in the Amazons and Atlantis, Zatanna was in Atlantis and the Justice League of Apostles with Zauriel and Phantom Stranger.) Plastic Man had the Justice League of Anarchy. The oddest one, IMHO, was Batman bringing Nightwing to Arkham Asylum to recruit the Justice League of Arkham If we see teams appearing all over the multiverse to try to stop the Monitors, we may see cameos of a bunch of those before there's casualties, and one Earth emerges, with ONE JLA remaining.
  18. I was pretty sure this was around for maybe 2 seasons before now. I wasn't paying attention. I think that may work for us. (Gotham Girls didn't.) The odd thing is, I just looked up Jessica Cruz last week when I was reading about the F-Sharp Bell, and I'd already forgotten she was a Green Lantern by now. Everybody else I remembered (Karen Beecher- Bumblebee from the 70s Teen Titans, Mal Duncan's main squeeze.)
  19. She's been around long enough for her cheesy movies to be called "old"? I had no idea she'd been in that much stuff on TV, outside of SyFy.
  20. Last name shorter than 5 letters, did old movies..... "LUCILLE BALL?"
