TWQ: Film/Actor

Important: I am on vacation from Sunday 24th July until Tuesday 10th July, and will be unlikely to send any posts. I shall be on a cruise, seeing Ireland, Iceland, Norway, Holland and Belgium.

While I am away, please do the following TWQ (The Weekend Question), which will last through that period.

I have listed a film and an actor below. You should write the name of another actor who was then in that film, and list a film that person was in. The next person should follow, doing the same procedure.

This enables anybody to come back and continue as often as they like.

I start with:

The Towering Inferno starring Steve McQueen

I'll look forward to seeing you later on!

I share a love/hate relationship with virtual memory because of the way prices are always dropping. I hate buying SD Cards for my R4 / R4i at (what seems to be) a bargain price only to see it become ten percent cheaper a couple of weeks later.

(Posted on 6Post for R4i Nintendo DS.)

Anonymous said...

Virtual Memory sure is becoming cheaper these days. I'm curious as to when we will eventually hit the rate of $0.01 to 1 Gig.

I can't wait for the day when I will finally be able to afford a 20 TB harddisk, haha. But for now I guess I will be satisfied with having a 32 GB Micro SD Card in my R4i.
