It's from The Day the Earth Stood Still. There is no translation.

Was Klaatu the name of the guy or his robot?

Last week I learned that there's a specific word in Japanese for the day before yesterday.

一昨日

German is a great language for all those quirky descriptive words.

Zeitgeist, Ohrwurm, Schadenfruede, Kopfkino.

Theres another word that escapes me which is the word for the feeling you have when you think of a perfect joke or comeback to someone after the time has passed.

Treppenwitz??

That's the one.

I love schadenfreude, not the actual feeling itself but the way it rolls off your tongue.

Thank you. Klaatu was the role played by Michael Rennie I believe.

I was born in 1951. I can remember a lot of actors from movies in the 1950s and 1960s and a couple of decades after but couldn't tell you much about movies from 2000 onwards.

You're not missing much from Western cinema that's for sure.

Currently watching the Kokoda movie ...decided to read up on some info about Kokoda

I have always heard claims we were heavily outnumbered ...turns out that was garbage ...we actually outnumbered the Japanese about 2.25:1 .....

Anyone else got a curious fact most probably wouldn't know ....???

I didn't know that a club could pinch their own players, but Brett Read shows you can.

From Fox.com

However Brent Read revealed on Triple M that the Raiders are eyeing playmakers from the **Sharks and Raiders** that could also shake-up the halves market.

Imagine your local side just up and leaving because the rich owner changed his/her mind. It's not even uncommon over there.

Oakland had been there since the 60's. Just uproot 60 years of history and move it to a place that has a transient population.

In Clevelands case they didn't come back, the NFL gave them a new franchise that kept all the old records. That was part of the deal when that creep Art Modell moved the Franchise to Baltimore
 
When Lovell returned home from the Apollo 13 mission:

"When Lovell returned to Timber Cove, the neighbors could have welcomed him home with music, cheering and a raucous party. But the Timber Cove wives knew something different was required. The night that Lovell was due to arrive, neighbors gathered at the entrance to Timber Cove, each holding a flashlight. When the astronaut pulled up, everyone in the crowd quietly put one hand on his car. And solemnly, silently, they walked the car through the darkness to the Lovells' house."
