  1. Ok, next TV show. "Wow, look at all these people playing right now!" "Yeah, it's bull crap. I bet half of these people are Koreans!" "Whoever this person is, he's played World of Warcraft nearly every hour of every day for the past two years. Gentlemen, we are dealing with someone here who has absolutely no life." "How do you kill that which has no life?" "Congratulations! You played Guitar Hero enough to score one million points!" "Who is Mysterion?" "I'm not doing it. Being in a dance group is totally conformist." "Yeah, I'm not conforming to some dance-off regulations. "I'm not doing it either. I'm the biggest non-conformist of all. "I'm such a non-conformist that I'm not going to conform with the rest of you. Okay, I'll do it. "Great!" ".....Whoa. I think we just got put in our place. "Yeah, we just got goth served."
  2. "Now, whatever you think you know about this man is irrelevant. He is considered by many authorities to be the most dangerous man alive. My colleagues believe that I'm wasting my time with you, but I believe you wish to do the right thing. We're willing to wipe the slate clean, give you a fresh start. All that we're asking in return is your cooperation in bringing a known terrorist to justice." "Stop TRYING to hit me and HIT me!" "There's a difference between KNOWING the path, and WALKING the path." "So, what do you need, besides a miracle?" "Guns. Lots of guns." "No one has ever done anything like this." "That's why it's going to work." ""Why isn't this serum working?" "Perhaps we're asking the wrong questions."
  3. If you need them from George, you're in trouble. It's my turn and he doesn't recognize the movie yet. Give me a few hours, I'll have another 2-3 quotes up. Apparently, nobody's checking in who's a real fanatic about this movie. Last time it was posted, someone jumped on it in one quote. (No, that's not a clue, just me musing aloud.)
  4. It should. You've seen this movie. (I'd be truly shocked if you have not.) No, I'm not making it easy yet, but I think some of you might get it with harder clues.
  5. Isn't it always interesting how much of the "literal translations according to usage" often match, word for word, with the same verse in the Amplified Bible? That always fascinates me. One might think that these "results" of vpw's "research" were plagiarized directly from the Amplified Bible....
  6. I Corinthians 8:1b (KJV) "Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth." I Corinthians 8:1b (NIV) "Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up." I Corinthians 8:1b (NASB) "Knowledge makes arrogant, but love edifies." I Corinthians 8:1b (AMP) "[Yet mere] knowledge causes people to be puffed up (to bear themselves loftily and be proud), but love (affection and goodwill and benevolence) edifies and builds up and encourages one to grow [to his full stature]."
  7. In case you don't know, the rule is... If it's your turn and you're posting clues, you SHOULD look things up so you're accurate. If you're trying to guess. you SHOULDN'T LOOK things up because that's cheating. If you DO look while guessing, you've forfeited your chance to guess. (But if not knowing was driving you nuts, it's always an option.)
  8. "Now, whatever you think you know about this man is irrelevant. He is considered by many authorities to be the most dangerous man alive. My colleagues believe that I'm wasting my time with you, but I believe you wish to do the right thing. We're willing to wipe the slate clean, give you a fresh start. All that we're asking in return is your cooperation in bringing a known terrorist to justice." "Stop TRYING to hit me and HIT me!"
  9. I'd like some more information before I form an opinion on this one direction or the other. If you stay, will this mean we'll be getting more posts from James Trimm where James Trimm explains why James Trimm is the only person around here who understands how God works, and how James Trimm's organization is the only TRUE organization around here, and more responding to specific discussion here with general pasting? If so, we've had our fill of that already. If you can find it in yourself to refrain from all that, then I don't see the need to shove you off. Mind you, I don't think you CAN find it in yourself to refrain from all that. I think you've been doing all that so long that I think you can't relate like the rest of us do, taking off all the titles, pretensions, and so on, and dealing with a bunch of strangers with lots of variations as EQUALS you potentially could learn a lot from.
  10. No. (That is not a clue or anything.)
  11. Don't bother. Apparently, 2+2=4 when dealing with Christians, 2+2=3 when dealing with Jews, 2+2=5 when dealing with Mormons, with the truth of the speaker changing, depending on the audience.
  12. Of course, vpw (who knew nothing about the military) was fond of saying "the suggestion of a General is tantamount to a command" (while insinuating, implying, etc that he was this General he was speaking of.)
  13. Has she jogged your memory yet, James, or does she need to post some more to jog it?
  14. PHPHPHBBBBTTTTT!!!!! Some of us are born with exceptional IQ potential. Some of us are born with exceptional musical potential. Some of us are born with exceptional athletic potential. Some of us are born into rich families. Nothing takes the place of hard work, but then ability is always a bonus no matter what the field is. None of that makes God a respecter of persons. Some dogs are born small, some dogs are born huge. Some dogs are friendly but dumb, some dogs are exceptionally smart for a dog. Some dogs can pull a sled, some dogs can follow a trail. None of that makes God a respecter of dogs. The differences are genetic variation within the species, and the potential passed along by the parents. If God interfered with that process, THEN he'd be a respecter of (fill-in-the-blank.)
  15. Next movie. "We're willing to wipe the slate clean, give you a fresh start. All that we're asking in return is your cooperation in bringing a known terrorist to justice."
  16. That guess was hardly "wild". It IS "Taxi Driver." Travis suddenly begins focusing his life when he prepares to do violence- working out, buying guns, fashioning a custom holster, looking tough in the mirror ("You talking to me?...."), then tries to shoot the Governor/Presidential candidate. He fails. Meanwhile, he's been trying to get Jodi Foster's character to give up prostitution. When he sees her pimp victimizing her, he gets her out of there by shooting up the place-and shooting all the criminals. He becomes reported as a hero for rescuing that young girl from criminals. Meanwhile, it's soul searcher's turn.
  17. No. I'm glad it wasn't too obvious. IMHO, this movie is better known than "V For Vendetta."
  18. A man adds direction to his life, and attempts to become a public enemy, but accidentally ends up being proclaimed a hero.
  19. Wikiquote's main page in English: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikiquote's index for television shows with quotes: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Television_shows They also have sections for films and literary works, and that doesn't even count the other languages. Just go to the page for television shows, and look through the alphabetized list of shows with quotes listed. Then pick one you're interested in, and look at its quotes. If it only has 1 or 2, you might want to pick a different show.
  20. Check the date and time the poster posted. Check the date and time the moderator posted. If you find a long post like that which was posted AFTER the moderator's message, then by all means report it. I haven't seen one (yet).
  21. He dodged and changed the subject because that's all he's got. Someone already demonstrated he doesn't even understand the sections he's quoted, and his insults just cover his fears he will see himself as clumsy as we've seen him, stumbling his way through discussions with nothing to offer but insults-and certainly no SUBSTANCE. With no ability to discuss or debate here, it's obvious his claims of success, skill and even competency elsewhere are nothing more than wind. Anyone can make any claim, but it's not hard to see who's all sizzle here, and who's got the steak to match their sizzle. We've had quite a week of grizzle, I'll say that. Must be the changing weather.
