Prevailing Wind

I'm watching "Soap" on the Antenna channel. They run a disclaimer between the episodes about it being an adult-oriented ongoing story. The most recent one looked like a Jeopardy! answer - white text on a blue screen. And it hit me - that blue is the same as your computer's "Blue Screen of Death" when it crashes. LOL

I'm pretty sure I'd seen the formation in pictures before (never in person), but I'm not sure I knew the name until Close Encounters. I don't even remember if they said the name of the place, but articles & reviews of the movie did, so that seared the name into my memory.

I was totally boggled by the "Transamerica Building" FJ response.

2, with one asterisk for me. I'm so befuddled, I can't even think of a food to bring. Friday was an insta-get.

I went piratical and said "Ann Bonny."

Where the hell was Hurley?

It's the title - "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?" Mentioning a song made me first think of a musical, but it's just the title based on the title of a Disney song.

Part of the song "Shuffle Off to Buffalo" (on the way to get married & see Niagara Falls) is the cynical "When she knows as much as we know, she'll be on her way to Reno, in a year or so..."

The older he gets, the more Crystal looks like Miracle Max. Whoever did his makeup in The Princess Bride was spot on.

Remember, if you do that, you have to call it "Godfrey Soup." Bwaahahahaha

The actress who played Missy played a cop in "A Remarkable Place to Die" on Acorn.

2 for me. One asterisk. I got visceral and the Beatles. I'll bring some Jelly Babies in honor of George Harrison.

Back in the 50's, the Arthur Godfrey Show was sponsored in part by Lipton, makers of dehydrated chicken noodle soup. My mom would sometimes make this and add beaten eggs into it. I'm sure she got that from one of the commercials, as we weren't big on Chinese food and the fact that she always called it "Godfrey Soup." I didn't know it was called Egg Drop Soup until I was an adult.

I'm really hating on the Damp-Rid ad where a family comes into a house with a musty odor. Mom says, "The damp!" Dad says, "The damp!" Gran says, "Da-amp." Kid says, "Da-amp," and promptly gets told by Dad, "Language!"

Robot Pardison will get Eliot & roboticize him.
