CabbageFace Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 StLandrew should have a Trainmong for a avatar. Trumpets
Crouchie's Lawyer Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 StL, can you open up a competition for your logo? The best suggestion wins and you have to have it for a week?
Master Bates Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 What, you'd rather HAL was back..? HAL was good.
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 StL, can you open up a competition for your logo? The best suggestion wins and you have to have it for a week? I might consider that. As long as the competition winner is the next week's logo holder/wearer/whatever. Hey, that's not a bad idea. Until I've thought about it, HAL can make a return, as I miss him too.
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 Who is HAL? Daisy, daisy. Give me your answer do. I'm half crazy, all for the love of you... Got it now..?
Jillyanne Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Pancake Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? I, go back 1 letter B, go back 1 letter M, go back 1 letter HAL. Its DSM's way to raging against the machine.
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? WHAT..? You mean you've never heard of probably the most famous computer in the world..? :smt119 Even if it is fictional.
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 I, go back 1 letter B, go back 1 letter M, go back 1 letter HAL. Its DSM's way to raging against the machine. Yes, but according to Arthur C. Clarke, a complete coincidence. Of course, now we'll never really know.
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 Heuristic ALgorithmic That's Clarke's proper answer. Perhaps that was just a coincidence though. You getting all this Jillyanne..?
dubai_phil Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 This has been THE single most startling and revealing thread in a long time. OMG there is a person in this world who DOESN'T know who HAL was..... WTF is happening to this planet? I suppose we'll find someone who has never heard of Kelly's Heroes next

Pancake Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Nope. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ukeHdiszZmE&feature=related
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 My God, it's full of stars... Any idea yet, Jill?
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 Nope. Oh for Pete's sake, Jillyanne. It's not as if you have to be a nerd or geek to know about HAL. HAL is an institution. A global fictional treasure. EDIT: Take Pancake's crash course link in HAL awareness. There's loads of Youtube clips.
Jillyanne Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 My God, it's full of stars... Any idea yet, Jill? Nope, I am clueless on this whole HAL thing.
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 Nope, I am clueless on this whole HAL thing. Come on now, you're actually kidding, aren't you..? If you haven't heard of HAL, you certainly won't have heard of SAL.
Jillyanne Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Come on now, you're actually kidding, aren't you..? If you haven't heard of HAL, you certainly won't have heard of SAL. I am not kidding honestly. I have heard of Sal, she is Peggy's sister in Eastenders.
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Nope, I am clueless on this whole HAL thing. I really am speechless.
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 (edited) I am not kidding honestly. I have heard of Sal, she is Peggy's sister in Eastenders. OK, I suppose there was always going to be one person... HAL or his proper name is HAL9000 series, is a fictional computer that appears in the Book and Film, 2001 - A Space Odyssey, written by the late Brtish author Arthur C. Clarke. The book is memorable for its accuracy, scope and superb writing. The film is memorable for the superb realisation of the book. Plus, it was the first, and some still say, the best film that has captured the essence of the reality of futuristic space travel.

Well I've never seen The Godfather either, but I know Marlon Brando was in it, playing a character called Don Corleone, and Al Pacino was in it too, along with a few other actor stars I could name. These films and books are so big, it's difficult to avoid information about them. Btw, it's Grease.

St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 no, she's never been to the hellenic republic. :-\" lol :grin:
St Landrew Posted 23 October, 2008 Author Posted 23 October, 2008 I have several times. So have I. It's one of my favourite places in the world.

St Landrew Posted 24 October, 2008 Author Posted 24 October, 2008 I am not kidding honestly. I have heard of Sal, she is Peggy's sister in Eastenders. I've counted myself lucky that I haven't heard of Peggy's sister in Eastenders up until now. But thanks for the info, anyway. Now at least I can answer the question: Who is Sal related to in Eastenders, and what is her connection..? But any other question about Eastenders and I'm clueless too, as I usually make an active effort not to know things about soap operas.
Pancake Posted 24 October, 2008 Posted 24 October, 2008 (edited) answer the question: Who is Sal related to in Eastenders, and what is her connection..? Peggy Mitchell - Sister Grant Mitchell - Aunt Courtney Mitchell - Great Aunt Mark Fowler Jnr - Great Aunt Sharon Watts - ex-Aunt-in-law Tiffany Raymond - ex-Aunt-in-law Carla Mitchell - Aunt-in-law Phil Mitchell - Aunt Ben Mitchell - Great Aunt Louise Mitchell - Great Aunt Nadia Borovac - ex-Aunt-in-law Kathy Beale - ex-Aunt-in-law Kate Morton -ex-Aunt-in-law Sam Mitchell - Aunt Ricky Butcher - ex-Aunt-in-law Andy Hunter - ex-Aunt-in-law Think that covers it...

Pancake Posted 24 October, 2008 Posted 24 October, 2008 I feel sick. I could expand to include the rest of Mitchell clan that have even more tenuous links if you wan me to?
St Landrew Posted 24 October, 2008 Author Posted 24 October, 2008 I could expand to include the rest of Mitchell clan that have even more tenuous links if you wan me to? Please, please... just don't. I enjoyed my lunch today, but I don't want to see it again.

St Landrew Posted 24 October, 2008 Author Posted 24 October, 2008 here is something to make you feel even worse...we have just loaned out stern john... brilliant.. I can stomach that...just. Anyway, isn't it just a rumour..? Rumours involving Saints are legion. I'm numbed by them all.
