According to his IMDB listing, he was in 14 other movies as an actor or

While we wait....

(It's still Belle's turn, so guessing mine won't change the turn.)

and this is "Handle with Care" by the Traveling Wiburys (sp???)
CORRECT.
The Travelling Wilburys.
Lucky Wilbury, Otis Wilbury, Charlie T. Wilbury, Lefty Wilbury, and Nelson
Wilbury. Also known, respectively, as Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Roy
Orbison, and George Harrison.
:)--> At least, that was them in Volume One-
in its sequel, Volume Three, they were Boo, Clayton, Muddy, and Spike Wilbury.
(Roy Orbison had already passed away during Volume 1's recording.)
This band got together by accident, actually, and its goal was to have a good time.
:)-->
This was the first song they wrote.
George said to Bob: "Give us some lyrics, you famous lyricist."
When asked for a subject, "I looked behind the garage door and there was a
cardboard box with 'Handle with Care' on it."
Tom: "So we went out there to Bob Dylan's house, sat on the grass and from the germ
of an idea that George had on the guitar we wound up writing this song called
'Handle with Care.' "
(The longer story is at http://www.geocities.com/paul_82_allen/wilb.html )
So, Sharon, your turn.

I thought we were waiting for confirmation, just to make it official...

"and All She Wants to do is Dance," by Don Henley.
Didn't the Eagles just do a reunion tour?
I like their old answer about when they'd never get back together.
When they finally did, the tour could only have one name,
the "Hell Freezes Over" Tour.

"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.

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.

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!"

You think current members can AFFORD a "jump-drive"?
Here's what they can do.
You memorize one website to do searches from like
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.

Nope.

Thank God!

Oddly, that was NOT the same scene the character who said that got her

They never even RELEASED the LAST attempt at an FF movie-

Here is a link that will help explain the term Neo Pagan, with a little more tolerance than WW shows.
http://www.religioustolerance.org/neo_paga.htm
The pages on this site are really long, so there is more information below the adds.
"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.

Hm.
I'm sure I've heard that line before. I'll have to let my brain
work on that one....

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.

I think a safe rule of thumb should be that the song has received
airplay on at least one standard (normal station with a real
broadcast) station at some point in history.
That having been said, I think this line is vaguely familiar.
I've either heard it or read it somewhere, possibly both, and at least
one in the past 6 months.
