11532. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 4:31:01 PM Lord, this is driving me nuts because these men's faces are actually familiar to me......except for the guy in the top left who resembles an actor whose name I can't now recall. 11533. Magoseph - 9/30/2004 4:57:25 PM He looks like Burt Lancaster to me, Ms. No. 11534. wabbit - 9/30/2004 5:07:47 PM Top right is George Bernard Shaw. No doubt I'll know the names of the others, just don't recognize the faces. 11535. Macnas - 9/30/2004 5:13:04 PM But... 11536. Macnas - 9/30/2004 5:18:23 PM I'll just get my coat shall I? 11537. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 5:30:10 PM Oh lord, wabbit! You're right. That makes top left Yeats and bottom left Beckett and bottom right will turn out to be the guy who wrote Juno and the Paycock or something. I don't know who he is but I'd guess he's an Irish author. 11538. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 5:31:05 PM Where're you going, Mac? Trying to scoot out the door before spilling the beans? 11539. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 5:34:28 PM Mags,
You're right. Yeats does look like Burt Lancaster in that picture but that's still not the actor I was thinking of. It's some contemporary guy who's in his 40's-50's about now, I think. I haven't seen him in awhile. He generally plays supporting roles and I keep thinking of him a bit sweaty and disheveled in a lab coat.
Gawd my brain is Swiss-cheesy. 11540. PelleNilsson - 9/30/2004 5:48:32 PM Yes, Ms No. Now you need only think some more, perhaps google a bit, and the identity of the fourth guy will become obvious to you. 11541. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 6:22:54 PM Ah-ha! Seamus Heaney. Irish yes, but not to be confused with Sean O'Casey (Juno and the Paycock). I've actually never heard of Heaney before, but I did find the Swedish stamp site. All Nobel Prize winners in Literature. Very cool! 11542. Magoseph - 9/30/2004 6:29:22 PM 
I want you to know that I knew who these gentlemen were all along. I'm such a lovely person--I just couldn't bring myself to spoil your fun, dear, very dear Ms. No.
11543. Ms. No - 9/30/2004 7:59:42 PM Oh lord, look!!! They've got their names right on the stamps!
But thank you, Mags for allowing the rest of us to play! 11544. judithathome - 9/30/2004 8:03:18 PM I saw that they had the names there but aside from Yeats and Shaw, I couldn't see the other names...I knew who those two were but not the others.
Of course, I have been running around like a mad woman all day...and I am angry, too, about that VIOXX announcement. Bush is so afraid we'll get unsafe drugs from Canada...wake up, fool! Your FDA is letting us take unsafe crap right here in River City! 11545. PsychProf - 9/30/2004 9:00:12 PM
ORIGINAL HOME OF THE BUFFALO WING
11546. Magoseph - 9/30/2004 9:18:39 PM Are you going there tonight, Prof? 11547. arkymalarky - 10/1/2004 12:18:53 AM kewl underground house. I saw one of those in Southern Illinois.
We've got one up the road from us, but I've never seen it. Driven by it a lot, but I've never seen any part of it. 11548. Magoseph - 10/1/2004 6:13:56 PM Hey, Mac, have a nice weekend! 11549. PsychProf - 10/1/2004 6:21:09 PM Mags...I no longer live in the Buffalo area, but I miss it still. My sister does, so I visit as often as possible. BTW, all, Irv Snodgrass is well and continues his studies in liguistics. 11550. Magoseph - 10/1/2004 6:41:51 PM That's good good news, Prof. I just wonder if he will ever come here and say hello to us. Do you think there is a chance that he will, Prof? 11551. PsychProf - 10/1/2004 6:47:56 PM I will ask him.
