Lifted Up

Don't know it. No bells rung, not even a distant bell. Which probably means that I haven't seen it or even parts of it, in which case you could quote it to death and I won't get it... Of course, I guess you got mine on a giveaway clue and not quotes, so who knows???

Raf winds the prize and is up. P.S. George I take it you aren't mad at me for not waiting on "Bambi"?! P.P.S. At least I took care of this, now I can vanish for the weekend... or longer??

That didn't stop me from guessing "Halloween II" correctly, even though I probably say snips of it when my son watched it on TV. no, not "Monster". I think this one came out not too long after the original movie ratings (G, M, R, X) were established, and I remember thinking the X didn't stop this one from winning.

Yea, and didn't you have a silent uncle?

"I like the way I look. Makes me feel good, it does. And women like me, [bleep]. Hell, the only one thing I ever been good for is lovin'. Women go crazy for me, that's a really true fact! "Here I am, goin' to Florida, my leg hurts, my butt hurts, my chest hurts, my face hurts, and like that ain't enough, I gotta pee all over myself." "You want the word on that brother-and-sister act, Hansel's a fag and Gretel's got the hots for herself, so who cares, right? Load up on the salami." "You were gonna ask me for money? Who the hell do you think you're dealing with, some old slut on 42nd Street? In case you didn't happen to notice it, ya big Texas longhorn bull, I'm one helluva gorgeous chick!" this is definitely not some obscure picture! after all, it won the big one.

I knew that one like the back of my hand, and I might not be around much of this weekend, so this time George may excuse me for going on... "I like the way I look. Makes me feel good, it does.

Hey, a BIG happy birthday to you!!!!!!!!!!!

"Bambi" This time no guilt feelings.

I took a philosophy class as an elective in college many years ago. We had an exercise in legislative voting, and I was one of the few the instructor gave two votes to because my self description turned out to be (in that class) in the minority, so he was trying to make it so neither side would have a walkover. It wasnt that complicated; we described ourselves as liberal, moderate, or conservative, and democrat, republican, or independent.

A fun thing is to be able to vote for someone you know well. My oldest son's favorite teacher of all time(now retired) is running for the state legislature, and of course I voted for him. And you have to think that a race in one legislative district in South Dakota, a close race percentage wise could be decided by a very few votes, whereas in a national race, a one percent victory margin could be, what, half a million to a million votes? Anyway, it is not of the realm to think that my vote could really make a difference. On the other hand, I think there is more involved here than that, like in the case of the presidential race if your state is a lock for one candidate or the other. I really do think it is important to be heard. Is it strange to get excited at a vote total of, say, 98.306 and think how that would only be 98, 305 without my vote?

I will go with Paw on this one. If there is a reason someone finds it difficult to make it to vote, ask for help, even if it is at the last minute. And as Paw said, either way. And yes, there are people who will help without having to know which picks you will make in there.

Sure it does. This old fart Indian fan and Yankee hater was bred during the Yankee/Indian rivalry of the '50s into early 60s. And of course the Yankees won a lot during that time. But the only time that Casey's Yankees won a hundred games, they lost to the tribe by eight. It is just too bad that, at age four, I didn't appreciate it that much at the time. But i sure heard a lot about it later in that decade.

Yankee haters do not necessarily hate Yankee fans! :)

I personally don't care where former Indian Manny winds up. And I don't care where former Indian CC winds up, as long as it's not the Yankees.

Yep. Dang it, you posted this shortly after I went off last night. Anyway, you got the "go".

Exactly the reasons why I for many years felt my experience in corps my final corps residence year didn't mean anything...very mild in comparison, the people involved were good, etc).

and some older ones too. Just kidding, Rascal, I don't really believe you are 900 years old. On the male side, that goes along with the term "loosening up".

yea, Ron, isn't it a little late to be fertilizing??

...or for those old farts of us who never got to the thread. Since I marked "other" for leaving, I am supposed to complain that my way out (depoigramming) was not listed.

In my younger days, I played softball and baseball. In one softball game, I was mad at not being put in until late in the game, so I decided I was going to take it out on the pitcher. I came up and let two perfect strikes go by before the unsuspecting pitcher obliged me and gave me one over the plate but very low. I swatted that ball as hard as I could right off his legs, and was on first before anyone else could get to it. And no, being the nnice guy that I have always been, I wasn't aiming for any particular spot. Of course it was softball, and "as hard as i could" certainly wasn't that hard with my so-so strength, so I didn't really hurt the pitcher. But it was enough for me at the time.

Ron, were you or someone else in your house cooking anything at the time?

...and my phone isn't ringing off the hook with AL or NL ump supervisors offering me a job. But at 58 this is a way for me to be right where the action is.

"I'm going next. So if ole' fat foot gets stuck, I won't get stuck behind her." "I saw a young officer on deck the other day, and he looked DAMN familiar... even with his clothes on." "So... he recognized ya, so?" "So doesn't that bother you?" "If it bothered me, I wouldn'ta married ya." "Well first you arrested me six times." "Well I had to figure out some way to keep you off the streets... until you'd marry me." "We're cut off from the rest of the world. They can't get to us. Maybe we can get to them. You've said enough, now get out of the way." I have to :D !!! Very few on these GS forums are more disliking of swearing and foul language than I am. Especially when it comes in large volumes. Seriously, even certain obvious abbreviations turn me away, at least a little. But I didn't really think a quote from a movie would raise alarm bells. But I think anyone can figure without repeating it what word in the first quote above was changed to fat foot! "Climbing to another deck will kill you all! " " And sitting on our butts is not going to help us either. Maybe by climbing out of here, we can save ourselves. If you've got any sense, you'll come along with us. "There's nothing wrong with the stabilizers, so there's nothing more I can do with them. Besides, I've got my hands full with this pump! You know damn well what the trouble is - it's the bastard Linarcos!" "Would you care to repeat yourself? He's standing right here." "Good! I hope he heard me!"

I changed my mind, do it if you wish! :)
