Oh, that helps a lot then!

This was what created those New Zealand scientists trying to find their escaped rat from that other post.

I need a way to find the file icon or the file containing an icon for a file association. In this case, the icon associated with diskmgmt.msc in c:\windows\system32. The Disk Management plug in for MMC, aka Computer Management. Normally, I'm used to icons being separate files, .ICO, in .EXE's or in DLL's. This case, I don't know where it is. A shortcut to this file gives it an icon that's not in SHELL32.DLL, etc. nor in the Microsoft Management Console that calls the MSC file. There are no icons in the MSC file that IconShop could find and trying to load it in the shortcut to get the icon returns that it has no icons. So, I can only guess that the particular file name is associated with an icon. .MSC is associated, in File Types, with an entirely different icon because that association is for the .EXE. Any ideas? EDIT: Found it totally by accident. Accidentally clicked on the wrong DLL to get another icon. But, my question still stands. Is there a convenient way to find them?

Bootable data discs are also multi-track discs, I believe.

So, should it be spelled Cok now?

Isn't Pepsi trademarked?

I do remember her, but, only from Bloodbath At The House Of Death, which also had Kenny. But, mostly, I remember, no, not the knockers but Vincent Price in that. By name, I mean. I might recognize her boobs, though.

After going over the link given, I am beginning to think it was "The Kenny Everett Video Show." It appears that "The Kenny Everett Show" was something on a different network and ran only for a few episodes. Hot Gossip sounds familiar so they were probably the band. Captain Kremmin, without seeing any of the footage, though, sounds about right. But, was the Captain on both shows?

Some of those are from the old newer batch.

It aired in local reruns in my area paired with Benny Hill in the 9 to 11 PM slot. Don't ask me where they found it because I've never seen it again. I believe it was hosted by Kenny Everett. I remember that it was mostly a collection of sketches with some music numbers breaking in, like Benny Hill. What I remember most was a sort of running gag cartoon feature that was parodying Buck Rogers and the like sci-fi shows. The animation was, I think, in the Terry Gilliam style, cut out type cardboard animation, but, I am reaching back into the really early 80's here. Any ideas? Thanks!

Oh, that's so corny! Anyway, time to pull out an old board trick, but, I think it may very well be the first time I've used it here. Happy birthday! Happy birthday! Whoopty doo! Whoopty doo! May it be pleasant! OPEN UP YOUR PRESENT! Just for you! Just for you!

One of the few likable aspects of Rocky IV was the musical score. I met the man who wrote and recorded it, actually. A fellow named Vince DiCola.

I saw Rocky V in theaters because Burgess Meredith was in it. (The film was nationally released in the US on his birthday that year, too, BTW.) Now that Burgess is dead, I don't think he'll be in it.

Yes, The Party At Kitty And Studs was Stallone's first movie, was a hardcore porno flick, but was not immediately released. After Stallone became a star, it was heavily re-edited into a less than 60 minute piece of nonsense (In one scene, a mastiff appears and then disappears for no apparent reason because the scenes about the dog had to be edited out. Now, WHY they had to edit out the dog... ) and finally released as The Italian Stallion. For all of this, Stallone received $200. But, there were fringe benefits.

Oh, also, it seems that Rambo IV has also been given pre-production approval now...

In your list of movie puns was this a reference to "The Party At Kitty And Stud's" or just calling him his Rocky nickname?

Several times since 2002. Most recently was a request for Beam Me Up, Scotty by Terry McGovern after James Doohan died.

They won't.

It's much better when heard spoken. The accent really sets it off. Especially the line "You've scandalized me mother!" It usually gets an airplay on the Dr. Demento Show's annual 4 weeks of Christmas in December. I know it got played the last 2 years. I requested it last year.

Well, you can keep it on your TV. I prefer it in my bedroom. "Well, I object to all this sex on the television. I mean, I keep falling off!" THAT JOKE WAS BRITAIN'S ENTRY FOR THE RUBBER MAC OF ZURICH AWARD. IT CAME LAST.

Well, that's a bit harsh to lay on the doorstep of the first film. Especially from a first time writer and director, Rocky is an outstanding picture. Stallone, yes, should not have acted in the picture. But, otherwise, a very entertaining and highly creative, in terms of the same type of picture that had gone before, approach to a boxing film: go for a realistic approach. Even the first sequel was a good film as far as sequels go. It's only real problem is the predictable ending, one of the highlights that the first film avoided. In many ways, the sequel betters its original, but, definitely not in the ending department. Starting with Rocky III, though... sheesh! First Blood, aka Rambo 1, is another strange example. The first film is well done, far better than you'd expect from its type of movie. Goes above the stereotypes you'd believe coming from the movie, given that it uses the subject of those same stereotypes of the time, e.g. disgruntled Vietnam vet comes home and loses his marbles. And, the film is saved from Stallone's acting once again by being buoyed with performances from entirely capable actors. And, that's probably why Rambo II failed, and Rambo III would fail because it builds off that formula. By Rambo II, the entire film focus, even its title, is entirely on Rambo, thus, Stallone has to carry the film. And, he shouldn't.

Well, now, I'm just tossed! I can't figure out British censors at all! Discovered my library had some of the A&E Hammer House Of Horrors TV shows on video tape. Made by Hammer in 1980... and in the first episode tape, I see bare arse, nekkid boobs, and the woman's de-clothed teats fondled! So, apparently, TV is far more liberal? Granted, it was 30 years after some of the Hammer movies I mentioned, but, here was actual nudity on TV... and yet the film censors were worried about the sound level of screams or the equation of murder and sex implied by a prostitute strangled by a cannibal?

Well, I admit I'm not a master of Scottish colloquialisms but I believe the most "offensive" thing on the whole page is the phrase "Dear manure-face!" Oh, and the word Hell does appear.

Don't worry. You've still got 39 left. Of course, most of us now are using 80!
