😀 Guaranteed to compel us flea-ing to all corners of the globe!
This old chestnut featured in Confessions of a Gong Show Tragic:
Q: Do you know what the difference is between toilet paper and a shower curtain?
A: Oh. So it’s you then.

Might have seen it sometime pre-millennia, standard fare, Yvonne de Carlo could have insisted on a better direction perhaps, would there be any truth in suggesting that being Merman’s wife well and truly wore her out?
Not sure about Confessions of a Dangerous Mind either, there’s something in it that does not attract, perhaps the matter-of-fact dialog style – and the as-you-please or “laissez-faire” directorial approach. A pre-viewing requisite would be some knowledge of Chuck Barris, who compered the Gong Show. For redeeming features, a second (viewing) opinion is required, so one for the backburner. 🙂
Bill & Ted, for me the Beavis and Butthead of Sci-Fi fantasy- doesn’t quite fit, but there you go. Bogus Journey had a couple of gags including the seance scene:

[DeVaultSetter]

Lucky me, still have 5.1.1, got a boatload of default Apps to remove or trim down, before the fateful arrival of 6. 🙂
Unlucky, as the SIM for the new tablet won’t work, which means making arrangements for the presentation of this bare neck to the vampires of tech support! 😛

American Hustle is worth a look, loud blaring dialog, music and effects are de rigueur in making everything come across as more convincing, did note the nutritional reference in microwaving food, which, believe it or not, sparked a law suit.
Monster In Law came up with one or two memorable gags, plus a bonus surprise in the TV scene:

Yeah, Taskbar Settings => Widgets, turn off, don’t use MS Widgets here much as heavily dependent on FTA state media news delivery. The default settings of the widget entails quite a bit of polling from news/weather servers, given some investment in time, you could get them to filter thing to taste. 🙂
Updated VS, but still to get something up on it.
Posting something new at the AHK site is weird, since there’s an hourglass on the tab/window for about 20-30 seconds after posting. Yet opening the same topic in another tab/window reveals it is already posted while the hourglass remains. Might be be something related to a Cloudflare setting, who knows?

[DeVaultSetter]

Ooh, Galactus showed up on that page. Lovely, it’s very much like a Jack Kirby production:

Cool, the Indexed site sports an xkcd comics vibe to it, which makes sense as it launched just after, in 2006. Do identify with the conception of our measure of time, it’s possible the reverse can be true, things are trending to less complicated, well explained, and bundled with instruction manuals written in universal and easily decipherable languages such as Mathematics and Gravity!

[DeVaultSetter]

It’s in tomography, imaging scans are possible, is there much tech available for it?
You mean this?

Regardless of the very forgiving nature of Power Girl, the shop will still have to answer to Snowman!
There are heaps of posters available, even figurines, have you found any any larger than this one?
As well as the ages of the earth, quizzlings (not to be confused with quislings) must be knowledgeable on the atmospheric layers:

Gets warmer in the ozone layer, and again in the thermosphere!

In Space, No One Can Eat Ice Cream

Only Ice-Kream, a speciality available only from Killer Klown Konfectionary! Did see the film an awful long time ago – do have an eye out for the merch, a welcoming doormat is just the thing!

Talking of quiz shows, there is no series 6 of Mastermind Australia (yet), consequently reruns have been placed in the usual time slot for the tragics looking for a kwik Kwiz fix.
Mind you, to date no-one here has offered Mastermind Killer Klowns as their special subject of interest, and the same can be said of Hard Quiz. Guaranteed to change if there is ever a remake! 🙂

😀 Draw the FuddGates! That man has to be held culpable for Fudding the landscape with wascally wabbits!

Could have been a directorial ploy to grab the attention of certain patrons known to fall asleep in those dark, dank, smoky cinemas of yesteryear, because they have each borne witness to predictable plots and lifeless acting all before. Either that, or a directorial overdose of amphetamines, prompting a sudden desire to end the current plot and introduce new sets and characters as promotion for their next up and coming, but completely unrelated hit movies!

Do faintly remember seeing this before, A_Fistful_of_Dollars, there is a solid Clint fanbase over here down under, so our hero is sure to rise on one channel as soon as he sets on another. The film is just about as brutal as any slasher, eclipsing the finer points of Leone’s styling, hence unable to dispel the dubiousness in Rotten Tomato’s rating of #8 in their top 100 Westerns. (Well, looking at that list, Wikipedia is out of date, as it is now #14, replaced by Unforgiven at #8).
OTOH, there may not be more than around 20-30 westerns in that list worth seeing (again) in any case, which is testimony to the eternal critical dilemma, a “good” film may not always be an “enjoyable” one. 😛

Funnily enough, the movie was originally entitled Rabbits.
You know, Google yields no Rabbit World amusement park, there are games, RabbidsLand and Rabbit World though.
Do watch for those Wabbits – could this be admitted as the main theme for the film?

These days it may require some exertion to get one’s head around Empire Magazine’s ranking of The Long Good Friday as number 19 in the top 100 British films for all time. For me, top notch B-Grade. 😛
If you ever wish to entertain any empathy for real estate salesmen, do not proceed to place GenGarry Glen Ross on the watchlist, but then you will miss out on the finest dialogue ever constructed from expletives and deletives alone. Recommended. 🙂

Beautiful! 🙂 Sorry, post edited.
Not much has happened since – well you know – the first hit in this Google Search explains it. 😛
Updated the forum’s General Info & Feedback
Yay, a Sierra game, too, my first “true” gaming experience in Windows was traipsing the length and breadth of Leisure Suit Larry World. 😛
Was it the remake you played? if one didn’t mind loading up from the CD packs, the original Homeworld would have run very well on the Windows 98/SE rig with the RAP-10 playing the OST. Don’t recall where the card ended up though, if it turns up, will post to H/W Relics. It cost a bit – must have been general compatibility issues by the mid to late naughties.

Another gotcha is is folding bikes were more popular, their parts would be cheaper to make and distribute. Do like the quick release system on bikes, it’s funny that idea was never successfully extended to heavier machinery e.g. wheels on cars. A quick release 20 ton backhoe. 😛
Good to know they can work for things like battery terminals.
Perhaps we are in a silly universe already, so we have no idea what isn’t! 🙂
After watching reams of quiz shows and the like of the years, have eventually come to the conclusion the periodic table knowledge is on the fritz. These things will help a little:

Space Age Bachelor Pad music as it was known, or something. For many, Esquivel is an acquired taste, as with many morsels from Zappa, some will refuse to budge on their way through the digestive tract.

Roadhouse had one good quote based on an old theme,- it was the occasion when Red West was asked a seemingly rhetorical question, he replied: Does a hobby horse have a wooden dick?.
Saw the first episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender, it’s very good, though given the glowing reviews, did expect a little more in the graphics detail. The stories fill the 30 minute slot too well perhaps, and there was the novel experience of Roku coming through the Roku box. Have you seen it?
The aliens in Mars Attacks! were hilarious, the humans not so much, and the throwaway plot could have done with a brush up. It’s fair to say the new entrants to Mt. Rushmore are now etched permanently into memory!

[DeVaultSetter]

They also rather sparingly used the Ken Burns effect on a shot of a car with thugs all shot up towards the finale of Unleashed. 😛

Chrome tabs have memory usage now, there’s an explanation here. Get a feeling we’re moving towards the milestone of a dedicated Chrome memory stats summary page, as distinct from F12 memory which has specific memory info. For this page there is:

7.2 Mb 2.9kb/s stearnvault:main
104 mb 12.9 kb/s http://www.youtube.com.XXXXXXXXXXX
http://www.youtube.com.YYYYYYYYYYYY

The embedded youtube flicks are greedier than first supposed! Wonder if it’s possible to load a snapshot taken from there into VS?

Haven’t seen bitter melon down here, could get it to grow against the wall of the house on a trellis, being an annual vine it will require a fair complement of water and nutrient to get it fruiting though. 🙂
Have the parts for the mixer come through yet? It can be heartbreaking to discard an old and trusty friend just because it’s gone in the gears. 🙁
A rather cheesy interpretation of the age-old question how many bananas go in a daquiri:

Neville Brand has certainly played many a villain, and Robert Englund, who can forget him? Got eyes on Sanitarium if and when the movie gets here. 🙂
Space Cowboys has not improved over time since the first viewing, in fact decidedly worse, so, despite the search for redeeming features and stellar cast, 5/10 at best.
In Road House, Ben Gazzara played a cool villain, until he started blowing stuff up! The performances and singing at the venues entertained, including a version of Hoochie Coochie Man. Many years on, our star reviewers down under did not rate it well at all, with the extra site-endowed bonus of: after scrolling down that page while the video is playing, scrolling back up restarts it. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

A beautiful world indeed for a Hoochie Coochie Man!

[DeVaultSetter]

Yes, thankfully, it just required coaxing out with gentle verbal and physical encouragement. 🙂
The tray on the A8 has two bays, one for micro SD and one for nano SIM. Came over with a mild turn of spook-a-loo after watching the video on how to convert a SIM to a nano SIM. These things are so small, you need HP Swiss tweezers and iris scissors as minimum! Copted out instead for the $5 punch out replacement kit from the friendly mobile co. 🙂
Oh, and the manual for the A8 only lists these models in the contents:

SM-A530F
SM-A530F/DS
SM-A730F
SM-A730F/DS

My stature as the proud owner of this absolutely unsurpassable model has suddenly decreased from 10 foot tall to 3 foot squat! 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Sounds great, a piccy of the kit and the up and coming work in progress workshop is very welcome!
