This is 2014. Every year, it gets harder to travel from country to country without leaving a digital trail. If he flew out of the US, then there is documentation of when and where he left, and details of the plane tickets, etc. More likely, he's hiding in the US with his head down. There's so many things he would need to do to hide in Brazil- like SPEAK PORTUGUESE, and get currency- which is a good trick if you can't present ID and can't access an account in your name to do it. Hiding in the US, he can sponge off his adherents and keep his head down. Frankly, it's no different than how Osama Bin Laden managed to hide as long as he did. Got something personal against Brazil? I'm just curious how that idea just dropped out of nowhere...

"I've seen the footage. The only thing you really fight for is yourself. You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play, to lay down on a wire and let the other guy crawl over you." "I think I would just cut the wire." "Always a way out..." " You really have got a lid on it, haven't you? What's your secret? Mellow jazz? Bongo drums? Huge bag of weed?"

The words were added every time the Nazis did a Nazi salute. Someone would make the Nazi salute with hand out, and announce the grass grew that high. They made a joke out of the Nazi salute. Unaltered, it was "Heil Hitler." They swapped out the word "Hitler" and made the phrase into the phrase "medicinal herb." Klink and Schultz, respectively. Making the place snow-bound for the entire series made it easier to make stock footage. A repeated line. Really.

Glad you were convinced- that IS the show.

This TVland-era syndicated show has aired in different countries. When it aired (airs???) in Germany, the dubbing track has some added words. To be specific, all the time, the characters apparently say "The grass grows this high!" A common saying at the time of the story was commonly ALTERED- in Germany- and in English would have meant "medicinal herb", which had absolutely no relevance to what the characters actually said. (Why?) Of the main characters of the show, one had previously been a bookkeeper and the other the president of a toy company before the show and their current "occupations." 2 characters once traveled to London, and several traveled to Paris. The fake snow was sometimes white salt, but later it was all just white paint. Nicknames for the "jolly jokers" included "Goldilocks", "Papa Bear", and "Little Red Riding Hood", apparently all assigned arbitrarily because there seemed to be no pattern to it. "What is this man doing here????" Actors who appeared during the series' run included Gavin Mac Leod, William Christopher, Alice Ghostley, Hans Conried, Joe Tata, and Harvey Keitel. Really.

"The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen." (And women.)

This sounds familiar, but I'm not getting it.

You actually have 2 things to go on, even though they're really small things. It is possible to figure it out just from them, even if you've never heard that piece of trivia.

It might well be a quote from Corps Week. However, that was never a movie. (Would have been something, though...) It is indeed "Network."

A claim lacking any substance. vpw had no background in the military by ANYONE's definition. He didn't serve, wasn't in the Guard, wasn't in the Reserves, and was never ROTC. Anything he CLAIMED was about the military was taken from the media. How'd you like someone's supposedly sufficient understanding about your job or your hobbies to be based entirely on movies? There are lots of programs for leadership training. A number are in the military in various branches. A number are on college campuses. A number are out in the world at large. vpw skipped all of them- sounded like voluntary work and that was against his moral code....

Neither can I, but that's not what I said.... words were ADDED, words not in the script.

"You've got to say, 'I'm a HUMAN BEING, GodD*it! My life has VALUE!' So I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell, 'I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!' "

Jesus Christ: "The greatest leader will be a SERVANT." vpw:"The greatest leader is the greatest FOLLOWER." Small but critical distinction.

Can we get a little more to work with?

I was baffled when you posted the first clue, and wondered how we were supposed to get it. Then I got some sleep, and my subconscious worked it out. "Monty Python's Flying Circus."

I was considering whether it was time to bring this one up again...

That means it HAS to be "Star Trek 4-the Voyage Home."

And, having "made income" from the sale of the house, were expected to give 15% to 20% directly to twi as "abundant sharing." lcm had no idea that he HAD no idea how people lived. He didn't even remember how college students lived. We know that because, when he was put in charge of sending WOWs out, he sent off the first group early in the morning ON AN EMPTY STOMACH. He saved the organization the cost of feeding them "because he wasn't really much of a breakfast person." Honestly, in college, finding food is a big deal no matter what form the food took, so a recent college grad should still remember that as a priority. You have people scheduled for a day of a lot of walking (cardio points), and you're not thinking the people need some kind of meal before getting to work? That's ridiculous- even if it's a light meal, they need SOMETHING. Yes- lcm went from living off his parents to living directly at college, to living directly at HQ. lcm never lived on his own, and never held down a job. lcm always lived off someone else, and had no idea what it meant to own a home or even be in charge of an apartment, for that matter. And he was lecturing those who HAD about homes and apartments, when he'd never been responsible for either. It was as sensible as getting marriage counseling from him. twi creatively reinterpreted anything at hand to make it look like that was supposed to be how it was. You lived in semi-poverty and gave away your savings, while the LC's lived off your savings and lived in really nice homes owned by twi (and thus tax-exempt.) On the other hand, the LC's were shocked when they suddenly had to move out because they weren't bowing prostrate before lcm's or rfr's image, and suddenly they realized THEY had no savings EITHER despite having had the money to do so.

It is "the Hobbit". The 1977 one was animated, which is why it had Don Messick and Thurl Ravenscroft in it. Bilbo Baggins is at home, minding his own business, when he suddenly finds himself hosting a dozen dwarves for dinner. They give him a scare when he's particular about keeping the dishes safe, and they sing that song while pretending to be careless with them. (For the record, mentioning Orson Bean with Otto Preminger would have made me think of the animated movie.)

It's like saying Joan Collins is in it. BTW, I think auto-correct turned "walking corpses" into "walking COURSES." (A corpse is the body of a dead person, aka a cadaver.)

The first link won't work because it's a link to EDIT your video, so it sends us to log in to try to edit it. The second link works. In either case, the people here aren't the ones who can help you. You need to work with the professionals you were working with. The people here could easily hurt you more than help you. They/we are not licensed professionals, and we're not there able to do a professional evaluation even if we were. We take this seriously enough that we know it takes training to handle this sort of thing, and we don't have it. There are people who DO and are ready to work with you, and that's your answer. We can pray for you in the meantime, but you should be doing the things you CAN do (like follow any treatments they assign.)

Who would think a minister would make a bald-faced lie about something like that? Who would think a minister would make such a claim if he hadn't researched it first? That's why we didn't think to check him. People are a LOT more cynical now, and it's a LOT easier to check things with the internet existing now.

Is this a triple? Are both (all 3) movies?

My personal opinion about a few writers (Bullinger and Kenyon, specifically) is that their writings show a disconnect. At places, they specifically state what the Trinity doctrine says as a matter-of-fact, in the manner we get of people who repeat slogans and catchphrases they've seen advertised, or were told so many times they never think to question if they might actually be false. (I've seen a few pop songs do that with passing misinformation, no matter what the truth was, for example.) However, if you're reading their expositions on other matters, the explanations seem to suggest the opposite- that they're not diehard Trinitarians and would offend such with what they write because it suggests the OPPOSITE. Lacking either here to question- and a chance to speak without consequence- I'd not be too sure exactly what they believed. As for Leonard, his own position wasn't a traditional Trinitarian stance either, no matter what he wrote. In fact, he wrote an entire book explaining his position because it wasn't the main one ("The Godhead, or The Water In the Bottle.") Historically, there have been-and are now- multiple positions and opinions. There's the "co-equal, co-eternal Trinity", there's Oneness theology, there's Arianism, Socianism, etc, etc. Each has/had their own adherents. Naturally, each has/had some fools eager to excommunicate or declare anathema everyone who holds ever OTHER position and declare they are not actually Christians. Morons, all of them (the excommunicators.) As for vpw's stance, one obvious reason his positions changed was that he was lazy and didn't think. He was the worst kind of eclectic. (I like eclecticism because one can consider all points of view on every single doctrine before forming an opinion, and need not adhere to one simply because one's group teaches it.) vpw just found different stuff then added it to his catalog, without understanding it much of the time. That's how he ended up with some odd carryovers from authors who made some obvious mistakes. His official training was in homiletics, in preaching. So, the thing he was trained to do was to get up to the podium and make grandiose announcements- and the more grandiose and welkin-ringing, the better. So, he often didn't fact-check his pontificating. So, he closed at least one session rather dramatically (he did that with more than a few), and in this case he was so busy shaking the rafters that he didn't realize he was quoting stuff he hadn't espoused for decades. For most people, for most GENUINE people, this would be a hard mistake to make. For a fraud, a fake, a Harold Hill, this is actually one of the more likely mistakes to make.
