  1. We left off at the Cider House Rules Tobey Maguire Wonder Boys Robert Downey Jr.
  2. Wierwille based the "father" translation on the Aramaic. "Husband" in the Aramaic could have been translated either way, and because the number of generations in the Matthew geneology doesn't work out if Joseph is Mary's husband, father is the more logical translation. Scholars don't think, as Wierwille did, that the entire New Testament was written in Aramaic, but if any book was, it was Matthew. I haven't delved completely into this, but I thought (and still think) Wierwille's explanation of the geneology makes more sense.
  3. Okay, here's a great one: Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Brian Blessed Flash Gordon Brian Blessed (no relation to TWI) played Robin's father in Robin Hood, some royal guy in Flash Gordon.
  4. Jon Cryer was in my high school, exactly four years ahead of me. We took the same seat in probability and statistics class.
  5. When you put milk in coffee, it is no longer black. Just like when you put pineapple on a pizza, it's no longer a pizza. :)-->

    Why should I trust you? :)-->
  7. Jon Cryer Superman IV Gene Hackman How's that for a link?
  8. I didn't notice that outandabout and I posted at about the same time. Nonetheless, tonto is correct: you can't do two movies in a row, so the submission doesn't count anyway. Lots of known actors in Wall Street (the movie). This shouldn't be too hard.
  9. The In-Laws Michael Douglas Wall Street
  10. It was Mary in the cheese sandwich, but we'll forgive your unbelieving self... :)--> And peahead, how do you take your coffee? (Elapsed time.....) Okay, since you're not answering:
  11. Thank you for an eye opening account. If CES/STFI people read this, I hope someone answers. I don't like the way you were treated. Perhaps we can talk about joining forces?
  12. Pirates of the Caribbean Jonathan Pryce Evita
  13. I could be wrong, but I don't think Jeff was pretending to have just stumbled on this site. The way he posted that first post was just strange. Anyway, what do I know, right? I'm disappointed in the way, er, the manner in which you were treated. Why'd you sell the site name? And what do you want to do that they won't let you do? (FYI: I'm in CES' partnership plan, but I owe them no allegiances). By the way, feel free to check out my site (hope Paw doesn't mind the ad) and let me know if I can help you. I like your idea.
  14. The Dead Zone Christopher Walken Catch Me If You Can
  15. We seem to be missing a distinction between something boneheaded (like not saying who you are) and something that's worth suing over. I don't care how right anyone thinks that woman is: this was not an actionable offense, IMO.
  16. Ray Liotta Hannibal Gary Oldman See? There were other actors in Hannibal. :)-->
  17. No, but out of decency and integrity I expect you to honor my wish, or at least include that I think your claims are bunk. It's not a lie. It's a joke, just like Penta Water.
  18. Clint Eastwood In the Line of Fire Rene Russo
  19. Statement 1: Statement 2: Statement 1 makes statement 2 utterly irrelevant as a justification for plagiarism (for which, by the way, you have made a better case than we). To say Wierwille "popularized" Kenyon is to show that you knew neither man.
  20. When VPW said check things out, I think he meant compare them to the Bible, not "go find the books I'm referring to without telling you what they are." I agree with your statement that there's plenty in PFAL that is not plagiarized. Can you agree that there's plenty in PFAL that was? In other words, there's plenty in the work of VPW that is not merely the restating of another's idea, but the deliberate re-use of others' expression of those ideas, without attribution? Can you honestly compare the question 8's and say that this was Wierwille's original expression?

    Its Groundhog Day!

    I thought Groundhog Day was yesterday. Oh no! It's starting again!
  22. We were having the same conversation at the LES Forum. Interesting related link.
  23. So much for not using the low hanging fruit from Hannibal. :)--> Se7en Kevin Spacey The Usual Suspects
