"y’see it started way back in NYC when i stole my first rhyme from the m.i.c. at a west end avenue at '63 the beginning of a leap year, february, ’96 with a guitar picked up in the mix i committed to the licks like a nickel bag of tricks well look at me now look at me now look at me now, now, now, now." "We'll soon be on the radio dial And I been payin' close attention to the Willie Nelson style Like a band of gypsies on the highway while I'm one man pushin' on the California skyline Drive up the coast I brag the most 'Cuz I'm pickin' up my pace and makin' time like Space Ghost Raising a toast to the highway patrol with the most Put my cruise control on coast" "see i'm a down home brother, redneck undercover with my guitar here i'm ready to play and i'm s a sucker for a filly got a natural ability I'm geared to freestyle look at my flexibility dangerous at the mike my ghetto hat's cocked right the ladies say, "yo, that kid is crazy" "Hey, hey something's different in my world today Well they changed my traffic sign to a brighter yellow."

In real Christian groups, this would be seen as a no-brainer. A couple fooled around, and there's a baby on the way. What should they do? Duh-they get married and raise the child. You'd get odd looks suggesting there were other options. And the idea that it would be BETTER to have an abortion and end the relationship because they were supposed to enter a program- or stay in a program- of the group would get everyone to stare at you as if you'd lost your mind-which they'd suspect happened if you said that.

It sounds like it should be familiar, but I'm not getting it.

Correct, and correct. I was thinking of just leaving it at that quote for that reason.

RIGHT! Everybody always forgets the movie went on over 1/2 an hour before we first saw the Bates Motel, and the story completely changes.

"You can keep doing that forever, the dog is NEVER going to move." " Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. I mean honestly, it's the honest ones you have to watch out for. Because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly...stupid."

BTW, I just showed Mrs Wolf the first clue, and she rattled off the answer pretty fast. So, it's not exactly an obscure movie.

That was the angel Gabriel, who unmistakeably is a big time operator. What? It was Peter Gabriel's "Big Time"? Well, close enough, right?

An office worker steals from her employer, goes on the run, trades in her car for another, then picks the worst possible hotel to stop for the night-running afoul of 2 people she really didn't want to meet-or was it 1 person? You're going to kick yourselves....

"What does God need with a starship?" really is a giveaway, like "I know every corner of this ship like the back of my hand." This was "Star Trek 5: the Final Frontier." I'm chagrined to say I paid money to see it at the movie theater when it came out.

Can we get another clue?

Bravo! That's it. Your turn.

"I tied my own shoes once. It is a highly-overrated experience."

AFAIK, he was only homeless in 1 movie. How about the name of an Elvis movie referencing New Orleans in any way?

A radio shock-jock, suicidally despondent because of a terrible mistake he made, finds redemption in helping a deranged homeless man who seeks the Holy Grail- who was an unwitting victim of that same mistake. That man turns his own life around, and works at a New Orleans nightclub, first as a busboy then as a singer. Stars Jeff Bridges as the former radio shock-jock, and ELVIS PRESLEY as the singer. Robin Williams is in there somewhere.

An office worker steals from her employer, goes on the run, trades in her car for another, then picks the worst possible hotel to stop for the night. That description is technically accurate for both versions of this movie.

Star Wars (Episode 4:A New Hope)

Might think of non-comedies with Robin Williams as a homeless guy- that's how I remember the first movie. That should give you the beginning of the second, and that's how I remember the name of the Elvis film. TCM helps quite a bit with knowing there is such a movie.

No. A better-known movie, this has been a remake. And this round, I came up with a real challenge.

It IS Blues Traveler. You've probably misheard "THE HOOK" as "the luck." But you have the song. "The hook brings you down."

An office worker steals from her employer, goes on the run, trades in her car for another, then picks the worst possible spot to stop during her flight. (By "flight", I don't mean it in the aerial sense, I mean it in the technical sense of fleeing. I couldn't find a different word to use there that was still correct.)
