    Who is / was Bob Wolmer?

    It appears that everybody is under the impression that I approve of the documentation. You probably also blame Ken Burns for supporting slavery.

      Huh. Well, i guess some snakes do eat crickets, so that'd make a bit of sense.

          Who killed Cricketman? Was it,

          • The Snake?
          • The Bird?
          • The Hungry 3rd-worlder?
          • The Republicans?

          ...tune in next time, for another exciting unresolved cliffhanger!

            because the victim wasn't erased, nor did anyone hear chants for Crom. It doesn't rule out terminatorsRepublicans though, just this particular one. Speaking of Conan, does anyone know where Red Sonia[^] was at the time of the murder? :suss:

                Pakistani cricket coach, murdered in his hotel room the day after Pakistan's shock loss to Ireland. Rumor has it he was writing a book about illegal betting and match fixing in cricket. Match fixing has plagued international cricket for years

                  Wow, haven't thought about that movie in years. Remember watching it as a kid, but the scientist character annoyed me (IMDB sez that was played by Jeff Goldblum, who still manages to annoy me in most of his roles... go figure).

                        I doubt that it is, but cricket has this sort of Old Colonial air of a Gentleman's Game. There is even the saying, that when something is not fair or right, that "It's just not cricket!"

                          The Goldblum movie is the remake. (But as with most remake movies, the remake really is better than the original) Bzzzzzz!

                              I've got this debate recently with a friend, I asserted it was an episode of the series "Alfred Hichcock presents", he asserted it was a movie on its own. Have you more info?

                                          Alcohol is not the only way for teenage boys to reach their goals, frightening movies can help too :-D


                                          Where do you expect us to go when the bombs fall?
