    One of my favorite actors. :rose: Clickety[^] I was at the taping of the David Letterman show when Nielsen farted during the interview.  Obviously it was a setup, marvelously executed.  The audience had tears running down their faces. /ravi

                  It smelled that bad? People often forget that Nielsen wasn't always a spoof actor, and appeared as the lead in a version of The Tempest, (let's see who knows which film that is) as well as the captain in The Poseidon Adventure.

                            The movie was Star Trek before Star Trek was invented: Forbidden Planet

                            A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

                              Unfortunately I only get to 2 or 3 games a season as I live up in Glasgow but did catch it on the box. Looked like we defended too deep which only invited Drogba and Anelka to run at us and obviously conceded a lot of possession but possibly had the most clear-cut oportunities? I definitely think Ranger should start the next game in place of Shoela though. Andy B

                                He's slow. His attention wanders. He has no positional awareness and he's easily bundled off the ball. How is that different from Strolla?

                                    So you don't think that Forbidden Planet inspired some aspects of Star Trek later?

                                    A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand.

                                      He's slow. His attention wanders. He has no positional awareness and he's easily bundled off the ball. How is that different from Strolla?

                                      I wouldn't say he's slow, he's certainly skinned a few full-backs on the times I've seen him? I'll bow to your knowledge there though as I know you see most of the games live. There are similarities between them but Ranger is young and can only get better, whereas Shearer's friend is as good as he's ever going to be, which is a shame because he's never got even close to realising his potential.

                                        So you don't think that Forbidden Planet inspired some aspects of Star Trek later?

                                        A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

                                        That's not what I said. I remember when I first saw Forbidden Planet, I was absolutely gobsmacked at the special effects.

                                          It smelled that bad? People often forget that Nielsen wasn't always a spoof actor, and appeared as the lead in a version of The Tempest, (let's see who knows which film that is) as well as the captain in The Poseidon Adventure.

                                          It didn't smell at all.  It was a setup - he was using a pocket whoopee cushion.  He only revealed it at the end of the show. [Aside: the Ed Sullivan theatre is insanely large - there's no way you could smell a fart unless you were standing next to the farter.] /ravi
