There are *Five* English silent versions? *Five?* That's more than Bonanza

Take 2 Chiefly British. A method or maneuver used to escape a difficult or embarrassing situation; cop out: The scoundrel has used that get-out once too often. With the 'all' generally attributed to Mark Twain.

> Ahh. Hence the small triangular windows in the front seats that opened out. I get it. No. That was the ash tray

> {quote:title=Swithin wrote:}{quote}Very amusing thread! But along those lines, please let me know: Where does the expression "...as all get out..." come from? I've heard it, but I've never used it. Is it meant to replace something profane? http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/all%20get-out

Crack open a bedroom window - my two cents: I believe a lot of people need fresh air for sleeping and , well, always. Some Just need the air they're in to be circulating. Throw me into the latter category. Even today, driving around with all the windows rolled up as a cold front was moving through, I had the A/C blowing to remove stagnant air. In older vehicles an open window, even in freezing temps, was required to remove exhaust and fuel vapors. The same goes for older homes, as Fred mentioned.

I'm sure he knows who it is! :_| You're too funny :^0 I stole Fred's - DANG!! - Well, I borrowed it and haven't given it back yet. He's probably busy looking for it over in Rick's Cafe' Americain or somewhere. He was bummin' a butt off a lazy parrot last I saw. This one here may be too difficult without a bunch of clues. Here's another: She's only got three film titles to her credit. (oops)

Not Celeste

Now now, slayton and twinkeee. She's not Joan. ?:| Try looking across the pond. She's got a nickname that ties her to a very famous Hollywood actress.

Not the actress. Not the movie. #1's wealthy girl is from a well to do eastern family. She's been sent to a ranch. In ascending order #1. 30's #2. 30's #3. 40's #4. 40's

Yes. Selecting BLOGS on the CFU page brings this up on my Google Chrome

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yesyesyes yes, no. No. Not Una.

...or RaquelVixen Excuse me Fred, I need to borrow this: DANG!! The ink wasn't even dry on that one Ok smarty pants..

You gotter gipper Who's this?

*193* *Fifty dollars!!*

Music named that tune but don't worry twinkeee, you were only 6 minutes away Here's a beautiful picture you don't see every day (unless you're fred or scsu or metz or...)

*193* Was he talking to you? Was he talking to you? Because if he wa.. He was talking to you. I distinctly recall him looking right at you. He was talking to you..........Was he talking to you? I'm going to ask him over. Let's have a drink, all three of us, shall we?

You got it, mudskipper! :^0 Ol' 'Chilly Willy' himself. Good pick. Who's this?

Thank you, lavenderblue. That's very generous of you. #1. Wealthy city girl marries a ranch hand. #2. Hotel guests are counting on the outcome of a horse race to change their lives. #3. She is sure he will pop the question - he doesn't. #4. A married actress is courted by an aviator. Common thread is actress. She has the lead actress role in each film.

I believe it reads: To my good friend John Thompson (Esq..?) and ...................From Henry Cole

Alright. I went digging in another rabbit hole for this one. I'm counting on you twinkeee.

movielover, that black and white photo you're asking about is Sidney Fox. WOW! You guys exploded on this one. Fred is absolutely correct, this is Marilyn Monroe. I wouldn't have posted her again so soon except I just stumbled onto this photo and thought all of you would enjoy it.
