  2. Were all four of Liza Minnelli's husbands gay? - Cafe Society ...

    boards.straightdope.com/t/were-all-four-of-liza-minnellis-husbands-gay/220216

    Besides, it could be argued that Liza just wants a guy just like the guy that married dear old mom. Let’s see…Vicente Minelli, Mark Herron…. Heck, Liza’s Grampa Gumm was a closeted gay man. And her stepfather (Mark Herron) had an affair with her husband (Peter Allen)! Garlandland is a VERY gay place…. Eve December 21, 2003, 12:19am 5.

  3. One-eyed cat, peeping in a seafood store! - Straight Dope

    boards.straightdope.com/t/one-eyed-cat-peeping-in-a-seafood-store/142842

    Elvis Presley (the third person to record the song) hit a middle ground, keeping Turner’s “no child” line, but using Haley’s replacement lines about the dresses. If the “one eyed cat” lines refer to what you think, I guess it whooshed the re-writers. Whooshed me too, until you just now pointed it out. Considering the rest of the ...

  4. Who will be Trump's running mate? (J. D. Vance Has Been Chosen)

    boards.straightdope.com/t/who-will-be-trumps-running-mate-j-d-vance-has-been...

    Picking Haley might have gotten Trump an extra 1-2% of vote. I don’t see how Vance adds anything. This is my take as well. What, the MAGAs are now going to vote harder, which will get Trump to victory? Trump has made no effort to get more voters, and while the MAGAs are certainly energized (and entertaining), there aren’t enough of them to win.

  5. Cracker Jack Jingle - Factual Questions - Straight Dope

    boards.straightdope.com/t/cracker-jack-jingle/57257

    Factual Questions. jsc1953 March 8, 2001, 7:53pm 1. CrackerJack had a TV commercial 20-30 years ago that’s been running through my head ever since, but many of the words are lost in the mists of time…. It begins, * What do you want when you gotta have somethin’ And it’s gotta be sweet And it’s gotta be a lot And you gotta have it now?

  6. Question for Jack Finney fans (TIME AND AGAIN spoilers)

    boards.straightdope.com/t/question-for-jack-finney-fans-time-and-again...

    Cafe Society. pseudotriton_ruber_ruber January 3, 2004, 8:23pm 1. I just reread TIME AND AGAIN, and something puzzles me so much, it must be that I’m misreading something: When Si decides to visit 1882 because he knows of a letter being mailed that describes “the destruction of the World [building] by fire”–how can that letter allude to ...

  7. Captain Jack McCarthy - what'd he say? - Straight Dope

    boards.straightdope.com/t/captain-jack-mccarthy-whatd-he-say/91810

    When I was a kid, I watched a television show with a guy dressed up like a salty, sea captain named Captain Jack McCarthy. (This was in NY in the late 60’s/early 70’s). He would introduce cartoons and stuff. At the close of his show he always closed with a salutation that I never made out. Phonetically, it sounded like, “aut ta peen, and ...

  8. I have a Bartesian. Any tricks, tips, favorite pods, etc.? Let's...

    boards.straightdope.com/t/i-have-a-bartesian-any-tricks-tips-favorite-pods-etc...

    Last Christmas, my wife got me a Bartesian cocktail maker. She actually got me this one, made by Black & Decker. You load your own spirits into it (I have Bacardi Rum, Tito’s Vodka, Jack Daniel’s Whiskey, and I don’t remember the brands of tequila and gin). When you want a drink, you pop in a Bartesian capsule (found here) and it draws the liquor and some water to mix a drink. It’s ...

  9. Were DRAGNET Episodes Really Based On True Stories?

    boards.straightdope.com/t/were-dragnet-episodes-really-based-on-true-stories/...

    Bricker February 3, 2003, 1:15pm 4. The original radio and TV series were all based on true stories. I have no idea about the current, no-Jack-Webb version. Frumious_Bandersnatch February 3, 2003, 2:10pm 5. I didn’t know whether to start a new thread, but I’ll start here. In the opening scene, the “evidence gatherer” cut a finger off ...

  10. JD Vance Discussion Thread - Politics & Elections - Straight Dope

    boards.straightdope.com/t/jd-vance-discussion-thread/1005892

    JD Vance's approval rating is worst among Boomers. Big Village poll shows more than half of voters aged 59-77 hold a negative view of Donald Trump's running mate. That’s not a demographic the Republicans can afford to alienate. Had Trump picked Nikki Haley, this would be a competitive presidential election right now.

  11. Did anybody else read "Mark and Janet" in grade school?

    boards.straightdope.com/t/did-anybody-else-read-mark-and-janet-in-grade-school/...

    Baker May 27, 2004, 11:01pm 4. I had Jack and Janet. Actually, their dog Tip (He looked like an Airedale) got first billing. First word on first page of my first reader was “Tip”. later readers introduced Mitten the kitten. Eve May 28, 2004, 12:03am 5. I also had the Tip and Mitten books.
