One way to stop a big fire is to isolate it, and deny it fuel, and it will burn itself out. Now, when young people hear of twi, they can look it up online and learn all about it. If they visit, they find this is a tired, expired group composed of old folks. Those 2 are generally enough to chase away the youngsters. Older folk aren't joiners, and even if they were, twi DOESN'T WANT older folks to join because they're not considered efficient assets. So, what's the point? ===================== Furthermore, twi grew because vpw fooled a handful of dedicated, genuine Christians (from the House of Acts) to join his group and become its recruitment arm. (He never told them that's why he ever approached them, but his long-term strategy with them was VERY successful.) The world lacks the zeitgeist that vpw exploited, and they don't have the people to exploit the current Christians. So, twi's circling the drain, a ministry dying from the roots upwards.

You do, but I thought you were going to wait a bit longer and see if someone else got it, also. You may notice I said nothing about the previous answer being WRONG....

Oddly enough, I saw this the other day, but didn't really hear the line since I had the commentary track on, accompanied by captions to follow the dialogue. Then again, maybe everyone's seen this line, again, recently...

"Now, I know your mama, she don't like me, 'cause I play in a rock and roll band, And I know your daddy, he don't dig me, but he never did understand. Your papa lowered the boom, he locked you in your room-- I'm comin' to lend a hand. I'm comin' to liberate you, confiscate you, I want to be your man. Someday we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny. But now you're sad, your mama's mad And your papa says he knows that I don't have any money. Your papa says he knows that I don't have any money. Oh, your daddy says he knows that I don't have any money. Well, tell him this is his last chance to get his daughter in a fine romance 'Cause a record company, Rosie, just gave me a big advance! "

You might as well forget it- his Bachelor's in Psychology wasn't worth the paper it was printed on. After getting his degree, he saw someone have some sort of psychiatric episode, and the best description he could give was they "went gooney-bird." He also had no suggestions for what to do for the person other than pretend they need no assistance, which is what vpw did, while sending them home on a Greyhound bus. A WEEK LATER, they turned up home. (God only knows what happened during that week. The person was in need of a medical diagnosis and some treatment before attempting any trip, let alone a trip ALONE.) I'm impressed they turned up ALIVE at home.

I've heard the line a number of times the past few years, and recently saw much of the first movie. (I still haven't sat down for the whole thing yet.)

*wild swing* "The Prisoner"?

War of the Worlds Miranda Otto Lord of the Rings: the Return of the King

Were these actors "M"?

You can play on all the threads you want. Just mind the rules of that thread. Some of them are fascinating. :) "When Harry Met Sally." =========================================== How about this for a recognizable quote? I don't think we've used it before... "May the odds be ever in your favor."

Is this "the Last Action Hero"?

Thanks. I'm behind on Supergirl, but caught up on everything else. I should be able to catch up within about a week.

"By George, I think she's got it!"

It's "Pulp Fiction."

That's it. Studio executive Brandon Tartikoff told Rick Berman what concept to prep for the new series-and that there was a new series to prep.

That's it. (I would have accepted just the song at that point.)

I hallucinate it's my turn, then it's my turn. This week is getting surreal. ====================== When Deep Space 9 was started, they thought about a specific TV series from the black-and-white days. So, we got a guy who moves into a "frontier" area with his son, and is in charge of keeping order. What show's concept did they use?

I don't have one ready- so please go with yours. :)
