Dadrian Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 G. Gordon Liddy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny-Burnett Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Yep...Didn't know if there were any Moody Blues fans in here, but that first clue is a big one. That song is about Timothy Leary, the counterculture professor (and LSD advocate) who, along with G. Gordon Liddy, held a number of debates back in the day. Liddy went on to be a successful radio host up until a few short years ago when he retired. Edited August 11, 2016 by Sonny-Burnett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evasyar Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 I've been wondering about this for the longest time so sadly I truly do not know the answer to this but... What is the martial art style Castillo was employing when he was kicking the living daylights out of General Lao Lee's assassin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Castillo was doing seemed "harder" as to a more soft-based, fluidic motions in some variants in kung fu. My first guess at that time was Shotokan. More recent I thought it was Cuong Nhu, now I am not sure hence why I still wonder to this day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny-Burnett Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Or since we know Castillo spent several years in Thailand in the DEA, it is not unreasonable to assume he may have learned his fighting style there. So if the production team brought in a Thai consultant maybe he learned one of these styles? http://www.mardb.com/country/thailand/. I recall he used a number of open fist chops, blocks, and elbows when fighting the assassin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extra credit if you know the name of the song and her interpretation of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicegirl85 Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) Cat Stevens about Patti d'Arbanville. I think the song is called "Lady d'Arbanville." ETA: I entered the above answer but didn't know what she had said about it. Then looked up the song on Wikipedia after entering the above answer, but won't say what she is quoted saying about it since I had to look it up.

Yes...nicely done Cat Stevens wrote this song around 1970 while dating the young Patti D, and she was upset about how the song apparently portrayed her as dead, and so she believed the relationship was over. She was only around 19 at the time and Stevens was already releasing his 3rd album. He famously (or infamously) gave up singing when he converted to another religion.

No worries about doing some research and looking up more info....I do it as well, and this was pretty obscure to most. I was a Cat Stevens fan way back in the day, and played that song along with Wild World, Father and Son, Peace Train and others...still have the vinyl discs. But I connected the dots with Patti when I was looking up some background on his songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
