April 6
[edit]Jerry Seinfeld is said to have 47 Porches and a bunch of other cars. How many computers does he have and what kind are they? 71.100.173.69 (talk) 16:28, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- Is there anything that gives you the idea that he owns more than just one or two? Dismas|(talk) 13:20, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
- Furthermore, how big of a house would one need to necessitate 47 porches? Poechalkdust (talk) 15:49, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- From an interview, he gave the impression a parking station of some kind. Here it says "Actor Jerry Seinfeld recently spent $1.5 million on a New York City garage for 20 of his Porsches" in 2006.[1]. Julia Rossi (talk) 12:58, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Helena Bonham Carter
[edit]Can someone give websites where I can find pics of Helena Bonham Carter by film? David Pro (talk) 18:37, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- You can use IMDb for that, click on her face to see all pictures they have of her, and if you want a specific movie, click that movie and look up the pictures there. --Oskar 19:44, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'm referring to find pics of her in films such as Howards End, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Where Angels Fear to Tread. Where can find pics of her from these films? David Pro (talk) 22:48, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not sure if this would help, but here is one source I found. Though it doesn't appear to contain screenshots categorized by film, atleast it seems to be contain some stuff. Mspraveen (talk) 07:37, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
- There is a lot of software out that that lets you take screen shots of DVDs. Do you have the DVDs? But weither or not that is legal depends on what you plan on doing with them.--Wonderley (talk) 22:59, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
Robbie Williams
[edit]In which edition of the album Sing When You're Winning appear the Spanish version of "Better Man", and the French version of "Supreme"? David Pro (talk) 22:20, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- According to the article, the Spanish version of Better Man appears in Latin-American editions, and the French version of Supreme in some editions. David Pro (talk) 22:52, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
Old show
[edit]I remember this old show on the Nine Network called "Challenger". It has people being asked questions, and going through obstacles like a glass sphere, a hall of mirrors and those swing-like thingies. But I can't find any mention of this show anywhere on the Internet. Anyone have a link to a mention of this show? Interactive Fiction Expert/Talk to me 06:54, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- I know the one you're talking about, but other than one geocities page that lists just about every Australian game show ever ([2]), there's very little evidence that it even existed. It's hard to google for, because the term "challenger" or "challenge" is used so often in reference to game shows already. Frankly, I'm still waiting for them to bring back A*mazing.

- Are you sure about the title? The show sounds a little like The Crystal Maze, although that was a British show. --Richardrj talk email 09:01, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
My first thought was The Krypton Factor 09:27, 8 April 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hotclaws**== (talk • contribs)
- No, it was definitely Challenger. It ran in the late 90s on Australian TV, although it could easily have been based on a show from somewhere else. I can remember that there was a general knowledge portion, and a portion where team members had to find something in a maze that consisted of revolving doors with mirrors on them, while being guided by a teammate who was watching on a screen. More than that, I don't know. Confusing Manifestation(Say hi!) 05:15, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
