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.)

  83. Anonymous08:16

    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.
