DrJackson Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 It seems like everyone is on vacation. So, today will be (I think) the latest indication of this session and probably of the Tread.

spyderspyder Posted June 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Oh - it's that silly man! I watched, maybe, one or two episodes and decided that such an appalling waste of talent for, I assume, mere cash reward, amounted to nothing less than prostitution. His name is on the tip of my tongue... Hmmm... But someone ought to be able to get it! s Important links: Forum Help.Never look before you leap, it'll spoil the surprise.

DrJackson Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 From what I read, the actor said he dropped the character that made him (too) familiar. However, the character itself was nice in its way, perhaps everyone could find himself in shyness, clumsiness, disorientation and other what it characterized that character. But this is only my opinion. On the other hand, someone had to do all that things we've seen watching this character, otherwise the world would be too monotonous. Once again, this is only my opinion.

DrJackson Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Rowan Sebastian Atkinson (born January 6, 1955) is an English comedian, actor and writer. He is most famous for his work in the satirical sketch comedy show Not The Nine O'Clock News, and the sitcoms Blackadder, Mr. Bean, and The Thin Blue Line. He has been listed in The Observer as one of the 50 funniest acts in British comedy, and amongst the top 50 comedy acts ever in a 2005 poll of fellow comediansClue no.1 He played in a historical television series, but what he played, wasn't the good hero. Blackadder is the generic name of four historical television series produced by BBC in 1980. Several other sporadic productions based on the same characters were made on various occasions thereafter. The first series was written by Richard Curtis and Rowan Atkinson and the following were written by Curtis and Ben Elton. The main characters are anti-hero Edmund Blackadder, played by Rowan Atkinson and his servant subaltern Baldrick, played by Tony Robinson. (from WIKIPEDIA)Clue no 2: He played in some movies or TV series with a partner very much loved by a certain class of viewers. The partner very much loved by a certain class of viewers is TEDDY (or, if you want so, Teddy Bear) Clue no.3 He and his car are an inseparable duo. And his car is one of the prestigious English brand. Just look at clue no.5 Clue no.4 He played in the bloodiest movie ever made, playing the role of a prisoner subjected to a horrible torture! Hot Shots! Part Deux. No one has seen that movie? Strange and odd ! The bloodiest film ever made! Hmmmm... . Anyway, the prisoner was Atkinson playing as Dexter Hayman. Horrible torture means tying braid of shoes between them. Clue no.5 An image clue, with our hero and his amazing car: I guess here is no need of any explanation. Case closed.

DrJackson Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 Still nothing?

spyderspyder Posted September 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 Still nothing? doc. Something - The funniest joke, ever... Deep in the sweltering jungles of the Central West African forest is a clearing, seething in the noon sun... In the clearing is a large, muddy watering hole. It is just past noon; all is still, nothing stirs... And the hot, heavy, humid air hums with the drone of insects... Deep in the mud of the water hole wallow two hippopotamusses, all but covered: only their noses break the surface of the warm mud... The day drifts, heavy and hot, through the afternoon... Suddenly, one hippo stirs. An enormouse head is raised. Mud is blown from cavernous nostrils, and he says: "I keep thinking it's Tuesday..." s.

DrJackson Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 1. Two desperate guys chatting through messenger (yahoo, MSN, stuff like this): - Brother!!! How cool snowing outside! - Wow, give me a link to see that! 2. A girl has brought her fiance home for dinner. After dinner, the fiance and the girl's father go into the study for a man to man talk. 'So, what are you doing right now?' asks the father. 'I am a theology scholar,' replies the fiance. 'Do you have any plans of employment?' 'I will study and God will provide.' 'What about the children?' asks the man. 'God will provide.' 'And your house and car?' 'Again, God will provide,' says the fiance. After the talk, the girl's mother asks the father, 'So what did you two talk about?' The man replies, 'He has no plans of employment, but on the other hand, he thinks I'm God.' doc. hijacking?

DrJackson Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 Hello everyone, It's been a while since some nice people struggled to capture the interest of many other with a nice question, a picture, a bit of song, with something. Given that most posts are about and for subtitles, I thought if will be a good ideea to divert attention a little, from many series without subtitles. Well, let's see. We are talking about a very famous actor, with a fairly rich filmography, it is true, generally focused on a particular category of film.Clue no. 1 In those days, a harsh parent often means that the rod is not spared. doc.

Alice Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Clue no.2 doc. Arnold Schwarzenegger The chickens are revolting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJackson Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Absolutely correct . Well done Alice. (I was in doubt to upload or not the last photo, but... ) Ok, according with his biography, " both of his parents were very strict: "Back then in Austria it was a very different world, if we did something bad or we disobeyed our parents, the rod was not spared." His father, Gustav, had a preference for his stepson Meinhard. His favoritism was "strong and blatant," which stemmed from unfounded suspicion that Arnold was not his child. Schwarzenegger has said his father had "no patience for listening or understanding your problems... there was a wall; a real wall." Schwarzenegger had a good relationship with his mother and kept in touch with her until her death. As a boy, Schwarzenegger played many sports, heavily influenced by his father. At the age of 14, he chose bodybuilding over football (soccer) as a career. Schwarzenegger has responded to a question asking if he was 13 when he started weightlifting: "I actually started weight training when I was 15, but I'd been participating in sports, like soccer, for years, so I felt that although I was slim, I was well-developed, at least enough so that I could start going to the gym and start Olympic lifting. That was nice Alice, now it's your turn . doc. The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do! IMPORTANT LINK: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
