The German guy -- one of the best and most sparingly written characters in any film. His entire personality revealed in about 1/2 second.
Won't even ask about the catering.......but I bet ribs are on the menu.....
We've been Netflix customers since mid 2000. We love the service, and it got even better when they opened a distribution center in Worcester, the town next door. Now, if we put a DVD in the mail on Wed., they receive it on Thurs., ship out a new one to us that afternoon, and we usually receive it on Friday! It's great!
They say the same thing about the grounds of the Kennedy Compound... But I'm not satisfied!
Mark Twain did a hilarious short story on a group of stranded Senators on a train, "Cannibalism in the Cars". Worth reading.
Good actor too. He was Tupolev, the Sov Alfa captain in Hunt for Red October.
We switched to Netflix vs. renting at Blockbuster.....and haven't looked back. Superb service, and SO fast in getting you your movies it is unbelievable. I am dying to study their logistics/distribution model to see how they do it.
Lassie. Irish girl/woman. Diminutive of Lass.
I *know* what it means- I happen not to be one.
Really? Cool!
Who is the Russian(?) actor in The Saint who plays the oligarch. The guy was great, but I haven't seen him in anything else.
"I left for an hour," Twain said, "and when I returned, there wasn't a specimen left alive!"
Stay away from the left wing?
I'm not referring to you. I'm referring to the blonde in the film with the thick Irish accent.

Ah- I read it as if there'd been a comma present. My gaffe.
Doing three things at once here.

I think this is the guy.
Multitasking is good.
Yep. That's him. Good to see he's working. For reasons I don't quite understand, I have a fondness for that movie.
So they didn't find any charred bones, did they?
Perhaps the survivors ate the innards of the deceased, such as the liver, kidneys, stomach, heart, etc. In the 19th century, more so than today, such organ meat was considered a delicacy.
And they wouldn't be desecrating the dead by dismembering them.
