Mmmmmm....spicy Indian girls......Welcome back Akhira!

There's a guy I do kung fu with who looks exactly like the Tron guy- except slimmer.

Woman

Hapiness

Love

gullible Westerner can't read Japanese, looks like a [over-used word].

Well spirit, friend and woman are all correct, so I'd say you're safe.

If gonna worry about anything worry about compounds- two characters when next to each other can make a completely different word. Example - house+inside=my wife.

Tim it really doesn't need anything else added.

Cheryl's defence-"He just walked on to the blade."

Well, I'm working on something now..

As for Johnny Stomp- after her first couple of marriages Lana Turner ended up involved with a gangster called John Stompanato. This relationship is mentioned in several of James Ellroy's novel as well as featuring in the movie version of L.A. Confidential "that's just a whore cut to look like Lana Turner!" etc.

Anyways, Lana's version of the relationship is that he charmed her while she in a slump, she had no idea he was criminal, and before she knew it he had turned into a controling bastard, beating her, having her followed and controlling all her finances. He made it impossible for her break off the relationship.

She kept trying to shake him. She refused going to the Oscars with him, and was able to carry it through I think because she had studio support (he was not good for her image). After that he showed up at the house where Lana was living with her teenage daughter Cheryl, and talked his way in. Lana didn't want a scene in front of her daughter so she took him into the bathroom, where he began abusing and beating her. Cheryl was out in the hallway listening. Lana heard her charm bracelet tinkling and shouted to her to go lock herself in her bedroom. But instead Cheryl when to the kitchen and got a knife.

She burst into the bathroom and stabbed Johnny Stomp in the gut. It was only one weak blow but it happened to pentrate the major abdominal artery. Johnny Stomp bled to death before the ambulance could get there.

But John you could go through vast quantities of ink, paper, and hours of your time printing them out. It says so right in the blurb.

To respond to Red from the other (munted) thread, the girl in the pics is Lana Turner. (Except for second from left, that's Joan Crawford.)

I had started out using images of lots of different actresses, but ended up just using Lana as a result of reading her autobiography. I was attracted to the innocence/cluelessness that came across which was at odds to her acting persona. I kept using that one image, one of her first studio head shots, because she looks so knowing and dangerous and gorgeous in it, yet when she first saw herself in a movie she was shocked. I think she described it as seeing 'this creature moving across the screen jiggling fore and aft', she 17 I think and had no idea of her own sex appeal and how it could be manipulated.

I also love Lana because of the whole 'Johnny Stomp' affair.

I screwed up somewhere, how can I delete this thread? Images are on other thread.

I was going the images I have stored on my computer and found these pictures of drawings and paintings I did a few years ago when I was at high school.

They'll have to represent my artistic endevors until I scan in some new stuff.

"...and I am more than proficient in the exquisite art of the samurai sword."

What's the title of this thread? Add that to the equation.

What's the most famous album of the band the Pogues?

Oh, and if you're not a fan of the Pogues, the answer is "Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash".

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

As well as an album title it was Winston Churchill's sumation of British Navy tradition.

Funniest film I saw in 2004: Troy

Judy Garland's real name was Frances Gumm.

Not a Van Helsing fanh either- but then I fell asleep for the middle half hour so I guess I'm in no position to judge it properly.

Geez that's good. It's incredibly springy looking for a clay piece. (By 'springy' I guess I mean sort of light on it's feet.)

Gosh Hilde, I love you too!

Have you ever seen a film called "My Beautiful Laundrette"? I secretly taped it of TV when I was 13 then wore the tape out in about a year.

Don't stay out of the thread Mark, I like talking about porn.

Mark, I don't think anyone's claiming to have never felt a spark of sexual interest in dipictions (visual or written) of sex, desire or sexually desirable people. Just that the imagery or conceptual basis of what is generally labeled porn does nothing for them.

Pooka you might want to change the credit in your sig to Matt Groening. I was quoting from A 'Life in Hell' strip waiting to see if anyone would recognise the references.

Films with animatronic animals make me break out in hives.

You'll have to convince me Atticus.
