Name that film
I remember seeing some stupid movie about a small town American football team which sucks, so in order to win games they get this donkey (or mule) on their team that they teach to kick field goals, and that's the only way that they score points. I don't think it was a Francis the Talking Mule film as I don't recall it being able to speak and none of those titles seem sports related. On a final note, I'm pretty sure it was in color. Any ideas on what it was?--SeizureDog 02:06, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Hills without eyes
In the recently released Nightwish song Bye Bye Beautiful, the first part of the lyrics goes: Finally the hills are without eyes

They are tired of painting a dead man`s face red

With their own blood

They used to love having so much to lose

Blink your eyes just once and see everything in ruins

The symbol could refer to The Hills Have Eyes (series), but that doesn't seem to make much sense. Can the eyes of a hill mean something else? - Søren 87.61.245.70 17:13, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Album Cover
I am trying to find an album from the 1960's for my mother. All she remembers is that it had two people facing each other, one black and one white on the album cover —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.106.178.212 (talk) 21:02, 11 October 2007 (UTC)  Found out it was Black & Dekker by Desmond Dekker

 * Do you perhaps mean Jimmy Giuffre (note the iu in the last name) or the few people named James Guthrie? Dismas |(talk) 03:06, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
