  2. "Oh, no! The man missed the answer in Jeopardy because he did not know what Deuteronomy was.....Oh, muvvah! Will you put more petite marshmallows in my hot cocoa muvvah! Gotta go, bye!" Hughes (Hines) made him hang up because he was overdoing it. :)--> =========== Ok, that was a Running Scared quote, as was the reference to Jeopardy. I take it that, right now, Belle's waiting for Raf to confirm her answer.
  3. Let's see.... He pushed books that said that the Holocaust was manufactured or wildly exaggerated. I believe this has been disproven beyond a reasonable doubt. (I believed that before I met a non-Jewish holocaust camp survivor, complete with number.) He pushed books that said that "Jews" weren't really the Jews of the Old Testament. This has been disproven with DNA evidence. He was against money going to Israel. He supported various conspiracy theories saying this country was going to face some uprising, and supported everyone having firearms experience and a firearm. =========== He may or may not have made comments that are clearly pro-Nazi, blatantly racist, and so on. However, I was not privy to those discussions. I do not know he did NOT make such comments. Some people will assume that if they didn't see it, vpw didn't do it. I'm not ready to make such a leap.
  4. It was Running Scared. I was working my way up to the most famous quote: "No hablo ingles." "Oh. Hablo SMITH AND WESSON? You have the right to remain DEAD. You have the right to a coroner. If you cannot afford one, a MEDICAL EXAMINER will be appointed for you." and "Calling all cars! UFOs landing on Michigan Avenue!"
  5. You think current members can AFFORD a "jump-drive"? Here's what they can do. You memorize one website to do searches from like http://www.google.com Then you use that site to do searches for the other sites by name. If you type greasespot cafe into its search engine, it will bring you here. You can also write out addresses on a piece of paper- if you can trust no one will go thru your pockets. If someone WOULD go thru your pockets, I think you already know what trouble you're already in.
  6. Nope. "In this neighborhood, driving a Mercedes is 'probable cause'. " "Tell him I said 'hello'. "
  7. Thank God! I'm getting tired of posting stuff that gets answered in 15 minutes. (That or silences the room.) :D-->
  8. "Yeah, man, he had an accident-he fell backwards on a knife 27 times."
  9. Nick Nolte Cape Fear Juliette Lewis
  10. the Legend of Billy Jean. Oddly, that was NOT the same scene the character who said that got her face slapped by her mother.
  11. Could be worse. They never even RELEASED the LAST attempt at an FF movie- the one directed by Roger Corman.

    "Tolerance"? Just reporting what I see. Usually the more serious, studious types add a specific name like Kemetic or something, and distance themselves from the self-labelled "neo-pagan" movement. Here, see for yourself.. http://www.whywiccanssuck.com/ That's a site by a self-identifying wiccan who's tired of all the fluffy bunnies who also self-identify as wiccans who make him look bad.
  13. Hm. I'm sure I've heard that line before. I'll have to let my brain work on that one....
  14. BTW, I was a smidge disappointed that the starfighter battles didn't include the 2 ship models that should have been there: the Y-Wing and the Z-95 Headhunter. Both were old-model fighters by Episode IV. Y-Wings were used in the Death Star battle in Episode IV as bombers, but were being phased out as bombers by Return of the Jedi. Their main strength was being able to take a lot of punishment and keep flying. (Secondary strength: some models had a 2nd seat and a tailgunner.) The Z-95 Headhunter was "the X-Wing's little brother." It looked like an X-Wing with its wings together in cruise mode. Z-95's were the earlier model and lacked hyperdrives. They were known for taking a tight turn and also for taking a lot of punishment. The Rebellion never used them because they needed ships that could hit-and-run...and the Z-95 never had a hyperdrive. (For that reason, it also didn't use R-2 astromech droids.) Then again, if they HAD been used, the famous line "lock S-foils into attack position" could not have been used, since both are fixed-wing fighters. I think I'll survive the disappointment somehow.

    Neo-pagan is the new do-it-yourself stuff kids put together prefab after going to see the craft. They drink wine and make up a few ceremonies involving candles or whatever, maybe "experiment" with drugs, sex, or drugged sex, and often dress gothic to freak the mundanes (sometimes ticking off the goths.) It's an "ancient religion" that started in the 50s or later, depending on specifically what they're doing. Half the time the kid listened to too much Morrissey, watched "the Craft" too many times, then decided they were Fairuza Balk or something.
  17. A lot of people who left before 1990 never even HEARD of her. Now she's running twi. Who is she? Who was she before twi? How did she get involved with twi? How did she rise thru the ranks and make the inner circle? How'd she get the big chair? Those of you who know, please chime in.
  18. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan asked Shmee about Anakin's father. She said he didn't have a father. If you're not paying attention, you might miss the exchange. I think it was around the time they gave Anakin the blood test. At the time, rather than jump to any conclusion, I figured Anakin HAD a father, who had Force skills (they run in families). His father erased Shmee's memories of himself, then split. It's not a Jedi kind of reaction, so I thought it was a SITH who did it. Think back to the scene where Palpatine's in that funky opera house talking to Anakin in his private theater box, and in the hallway. Basically, Palpatine implied that his instructor, Darth somethingorother, had figured out how to do what Raf said, and how to prevent people from dying, and he taught Palpatine almost everything he knew, and then Palpatine finished him off. As a side-note, notice how he says Palpatine taught him "everything", then, once Anakin's on his side, he says he needs to rediscover how to save Padme's life.... It's the bait-and-switch you may remember from twi. Palpatine played Anakin "like a harp from hell."
  19. I considered thatand disagreed. Obi-Wan was focused on what I was focused on-the slaughter of the younglings. I think he went as far as "Palpatine's making his move now to seize power" and didn't need to focus on any new titles. Obviously, Lucas disagrees with me. I thought Lucas was tryingfor a laugh or something there. As a swords/dueling fan, I was entertained not by the spinning blades, but with Obi-Wan's technique in dealing with them. As I expected, he took them out one at a time while in a defensive mode. Jedi are supposed to be able to move at speeds exceeding human reaction time, and I figure slowing the playback on this scene is going to be fun also. :)-->
  20. Of course, those people who sat thru "Athletes of the Spirit" saw-was it 7?- new categories invented by lcm. Let's see if I remember them... Heavy and gloomy Reckless and hilarious Animalistic and vicious Sensual and alluring Stately and powerful === I could swear there was one more "silly" type category. Got it-it was "Spritely and devious."
