  • Please help to make this the most commented upon Question EVER!

    When Hollywood decides to film my life story, I expect that the finale will be a masked ball to which all Google Researchers, Questioners and Commentators will be invited. The masks are obviously required in the interests of confidentiality.
    However, my question is:

    Who would YOU like to represent YOU on screen?

    (Since it's only hypothetical, you can choose people who are alive or dead)
    In case you wondered, Pierce Brosnan will be playing me.


  • #########(%%%%%%%%%%%%%

  • I'd like Jack Black to play me.


  • I wonder what all those other Google researchers who have not yet commented are doing?


  • I don't have any comment at all ;-)


  • RasMan initialization failure. Check the event log.


  • Oh, to answer my own question: the number of comments is right on top of this page!


  • probono said:

    "Well, this is certainly useful for finding out how your friends are."
    They're fine, thank you very much... : )

    "OK, it's gloves off time.
    No more 5 stars and tips for any of the non-commenters."
    You cad!

    "And only ONE comment each from Missy and PinkFreud?"
    Well Pinky made her curtain call, and Missy is in the
    process of being 'missed' by all of us, for the moment...
    Now don't you feel bad?!?


  • I'd want Robin Williams to play me. He's acted as the researcher type before (e.g., Awakenings, Flubber). I just can't see some of those other actors as a studious, hunched-over-the-computer character.


  • Sublime1, I would like to give you an example of what I mean, but what are you referring to?
    Some more testing:

  • I almost did the same thing politicalguru did and post a comment as an answer.


  • 10 - - Now back to my pen.


  • Hi, Simon (Kemlo) & The Sublime One

    No news from Feral on this. as yet.

    But, Sublime One, You just get better and better.

    Are you perfect? (Or should I post a supplementary?)

  • A flea and a fly in a flue
    were imprisoned so what could they do?
    Said the flea "let us fly"
    said the fly" let us flee"
    so they flew through a flaw in the flue.

  • When my life story becomes a Lifetime t.v. movie of the week I expect to be portrayed by Maria Conchita Alonzo who has sunk so low in her career that she can't get better work.


  • Sophia Loren at any age :-)


  • In my movie there'd be lots of gratuitous male nudity -- the full monty up the wazoo. I of course, er the person playing me, would be the only female so she'd get all the male attention. The men starring in my film would range from Rupert Graves, Kevin Spacey, Brad Pitt, Edward Norton, Guy Pearce, Luke and Owen Wilson to Jude Law, Orlando Bloom, Colin Firth and even Harvey Keitel (because he is The Man). My boyfriend/husband/lover would be played by the one and only Jake Gyllenhaal. Yes indeedy.
    The soundtrack would be a mix of opera and classical music to new wave romantic and goth punk with these bands taking part: Flesh for Lulu, The Cure, The Smiths, The Housemartins, Thrashing Doves, Depeche Mode and of course, Voice of the Beehive.
    Toodle pipski!

    Her first name is pink
    A woman, I think,

    Gee, that's the first limerick I've tried in years. Could be better, could be worse. Anyone else want to have a go? It's a long way to a thousand ....


  • Hi Bryan
    I've just read my comment "381" and have come to a thought you mite think I was an inmate in the Borstal. Far from that, my father was a deputy governor there. As to Lincolnshire, I'm not a "Yellow Belly" as I've only lived heir for twenty six years since my retirement. Rgd. Simon

  • Regarding the gals' discussion on the famous male nude scene, I feel a little bad that the young Sean Connery is not in. He is, after all, the first, one and only Bond.


  • Oh


  • Hi Probonopublico.

    Having seen a picture of you, I think James Garner should play you (I think you look like him/he looks like you, whatever!)
    As for someone playing me....Rutger Hauer or Max von Sydow......

    All the best

  • rogue-ga: "Please forgive sublime1"


  • These friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not.
    He went back and begged the friars to close.
    They ignored him. So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart,
    the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop. Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that...(are you ready) .
    Hugh, and only Hugh, can prevent florist friars.


  • We're back.


  • Does the 1000th commenter get the $2?


  • Hmmm ... if I can choose only a living person to impersonate me on the silver screen, I would like Rowan Atkinson...

  • I have been told numerous times that I resemble Bernadette Peters, so she would be a good choice to play me on the silver screen. Like me, she's over 50 and still feisty. She sings better than I do, too.
    If Bernadette is unavailable, Bette Midler would be a most excellent replacement.
    If neither of these ladies can be persuaded to portray Pinkfreud-ga, I would settle for Meryl Streep in a red wig. I bet Meryl could do a fine job with the Oklahoma accent.
    My husband will be played by Mel Gibson. No substitutions permitted. ;-)

  • See Bryan I told you so, you won't make it past 100 comments never mind 300, Not a chance in the world.


  • With all due respect to Scriptor, if he plays two parts (one as Scriptor and another as Jahnke), it would make it look like a cheap soap opera or B-Movie. I suggest John Thaw or Michael Caine (especially the young ones). If you're looking for a German actor, I recommend Armin Mueller-Stahl. However, after seeing the brilliant "Painist" (if you haven't seen it yet - go!), I must say that Adrian Brody demonstrated quiet good acting and ability to speak different languages (German, Polish and of course English, I saw it in the original version!).


  • Has anyone noticed the bad design of computer keyboards today. Whenever I place my mug of coffee on the keyboard to stir in the sugar it will invariably topple over and slop. My previous computer had a cup holder that slid out from the front, a well thought out design. My current one (an iMac) does not. Any one any suggestions on the problem? Is it worth posting this as a qestion?

After all, we don't want a horde of researchers breathing down sam's neck, ready to snatch the lock away from him as he fails to renew it for the fourth time, due to his alarm clock failing to ring at 3.22 am.

  • As Nasruddin emerged form the mosque after prayers, a beggar sitting on the street solicited alms. The following conversation followed:
    - Are you extravagant? asked Nasruddin.

    - Yes Nasruddin, replied the beggar.

    - Do you like sitting around drinking coffee and smoking? asked Nasruddin.
    - Yes, replied the beggar.

    - I suppose you like to go to the baths everyday? asked Nasruddin.

    - Yes, replied the beggar.

    - ...And maybe amuse yourself, even, by drinking with friends? asked Nasruddin.
    - Yes I like all those things. replied the beggar.

    - Tut, Tut, said Nasruddin, and gave him a gold piece.

    A few yards farther on, another beggar who had overheard the conversation begged for alms also.
    - Are you extravagant? asked Nasruddin.

    - No, Nasruddin replied second beggar.

    - Do you like sitting around drinking coffee and smoking? asked Nasruddin.
    - No, replied second beggar.

    - I suppose you like to go to the baths everyday? asked Nasruddin.

    - No, replied second beggar.

    - ...And maybe amuse yourself, even, by drinking with friends? asked Nasruddin.
    - No, I want to only live meagerly and to pray, replied second beggar.
    Whereupon the Nasruddin gave him a small copper coin.

    - But why, wailed second beggar, do you give me, an economical and pious man, a penny, when you give that extravagant fellow a sovereign?

    "Fresh questions" are much easier to find in Google than "stale questions". There are almost 3,000 references to fresh questions and less than a dozen to the stale variety, which makes it difficult to create a stale question. Perhaps, something like "how are you planning for Y2K?" would be stale.
    This one is definitely not stale because every time that a comment or clarification is posted, it rises to the TOP of the log-on screen that is provided for researchers!

    For the lead in my movie biography? The obvious choice is that stalwart, handsome and agile action hero.(Hint: His first name is Sylvester.) No, no, no! Not Stallone! The other one! Sufferin' succotash!

  • Dear RobertSkelton

    Another pessimist!

    My only regret is that I was not MORE ambitious.

    I should have gone for a million.


  • Hi Brian,

    I would like to played by Linda Carter.

  • For da man: Nicholas Cage, and for da woman ... I don't think I could share him with anyone! hmmm ... I like Kathleen Turner as in 'Body Heat' (but not as in Virgin Suicides, directed by his cousin, Sofia Coppola) and as a person; they were together in Peggy Sue Got Married. He is the Mae West!

  • With all the talent lined up for the Masked Ball, I fear that there's going to be many a mad rush ...
    Accordingly, would guests please specify NOW who they would wish their dance partners to be?
    First come, first served.

    Please note that there may only be time for 250 dances.


  • Hey, I just noticed that Bryan's actual question was "Who would YOU like to represent YOU on screen?"
    The answer given by Omnivorous was "A gross."

    Gee, Omnivorous, that could be any one of a number of actors. Tom Green springs to mind... :-D

  • Not that there's any physical resemblance, but I'd like to see myself played by a youngish Rosalind Russell . . .

  • I recall that Alexander Graham Bell's telephone didn't work ... Until his pal at the Patent Office tipped him off about Elisha Gray's patent that did work ... thus giving Bell the chance to modify his own patent application which had an earlier priority.
    So, Bell's success was based on fraud!


  • OK, four questions:

  • Hi, Simon, aka Kemlo the Magnificent

    Those are actually rather good ...

  • I would like a slow dance with Antonio Banderas, Val Kilmer and Al Pacino.


  • Anyone know if this is now the most commented question in GA history?


  • No probo - just a problem with posting. LOL, I didn't think the first one had gone through before I corrected the spelling typo in "incredible." There is only one horse and only one purple haired Valkerie. She will acknowledge no rival. - - - Now back to the story.


  • Janeane Garofalo would play me. She'd have to be a more conservative Janeanne in some ways but she's the person I can most identify with on many subjects plus she's short like me. :) If it were a big classic type film, maybe Joan Fontaine.

  • On behalf of my producers, I am pleased to report that Heather Graham will be made VERY welcome.
    Hope you're following this, Heath.

    Thanks, Carpediem (Now that's a funny alias!).


  • ... how can you post five comments in the same minute ...


  • I would like to be played by Barry Humphries


  • It should be.


  • I said it earlier and I am saying it again: I will never deign to play around with such a silly game of simply adding comments for the sake of comments.

  • . Two boll weevils grew up in South Carolina. One
    went to Hollywood
    and became a famous actor. The other stayed behind

    two weevils.


  • I'd like Goldie Hawn to represent me!!!


  • They don't want to play with the little children

  • Thanks a lot, Digs.

    Good thinking!

  • Hi, Simon

    (Please note that I am the supreme authority on etiqette.)

    You're right about the patents being filed the same day.

    But Bell was the only one with the patent agent in his pocket.

  • Hi, Hailstorm

    I'm a simple soul who believes EVERYTHING uttered by every Google researcher (especially Missy, Pinky, Bobbie and Ace).
    It's the doctrine of infallibily that they share with governments and politicians.
    I also believe in Father Christmas.

    Please don't disabuse me.


  • There's nothing much happening with the *real* questions (i.e., the one's I can earn some money on) so I just thought I'd drop in another comment here.
    Keep on keeping on...

    He did quite well in the Thomas Crown Affair.
