In the recent Christmas ep that was aired, he was telling the nun where were
good bars she could get picked up at. When he fould out she was a nun, he
crossed himself saying, "that's the one that's going to take me down". It
was pure Antonio.

BTW, my wife told me that the nun is actually Antonio's wife, in real life.

Mary something.

On another interesting note, the woman who played Gwen in the episode
"Have I Got A Couple For You" is Tim Daly's wife of many years (they
actually got married like 3 years before Wings started). And yes the
nun was indeed Brooke Adams. I don't think any other cast members had
their significant others on the show.

Actually, if you remember an episode in which Brian comes off the plane and
rushes in to tell Joe "A priest, a rabbi, and a guy wearing lederhosen are
travelling together.", and Joe replies "I've heard that joke a million times,
isn't it getting old?" Then right after that, a priest, a rabbi, and a guy
wearing lederhosen walk into the terminal after getting off the plane, cross
the lobby, and exit. The guy wearing lederhosen is none other than Gene
Schull, Rebecca's husband (it was an uncredited appearance!) And in "The Bank
Dick", the man in line that Brian harrassed a bit was played by none other than
Crystal's father Jerry!

I was surprised when I found out Antonio was married in real life and wasn't
from Italy. I was only aa kid at the time. I also thought Joe and Brian were
brothers in real life too. They really do look related.

Helen: He said that on his deathbed?

Antonio: Bed? What bed? Dieing in a bed would be too easy for a Scarpachi.
It would imply an ounce of dignity. He died in a sewer where he remains to
this very day. [LATER] As my grandfather always used to say, LIFE SUCKS!
In fact, that's what it said on his tombstone that we threw down into the

I was shocked when I saw him in such roles as "Stark Raving Mad" and "Galaxy

Antonio said this in the episode "Black Eye Affair. He and Helen had broken
out in poison ivy or something while picking cranberries and he came over to
give her some calamine lotion. Now she was already spotted from the PI and she
had foil in her hair from getting the green out of her head. Antonio then dabs
a bit of lotion on her chest and notices it all pink on her skin!

Of course this adds so much to Lynne's original post...NOT! I don't need your

Judging from your constant flames every time the guy posts, I'd say there might

Now guys........this is nonsense. I know I should stay outta this but the way I
feel is that if Tom wants to make corrections here and there, that's fine by
me. I am the one he recently corrected anyway and I did not mind. Now, if it
bothers anyone else, that's fine too but just don't make an issue out of it.
Andy, Hooper and aperfecttool......you guys have some great Wings things to
talk about and other things too, I'm sure. I enjoy your posts but I don't enjoy
seeing Tom ripped up all the time. Nobody else seems to be bothered by him. I
find that it's just best to not respond to a post that ticks you off. Of
course, you have the right to post what you want. I just wanna keep this NG on
a friendly level. I'll hush now. ;)

I personally have no problem with Tom correcting me if I'm not sure of a quote
or something. My brain is full of useless crap I had to memorize in school
these last 2 years that I'll never have to use after I graduate that I can't
remember every little detail from the show. Tom's useful, interesting knowledge
pushes out that boring crap, like the quadratic formula or Shakespeare's plays.
Really, will I EVER need to know that stuff? I know I won't be using Wings in
the future either, but it's still a heck of a lot more fun than talking about
the ancient Egyptians. If people have a problem with Tom, just ignore him. I
have no problem with him.

All I'm saying is that if Tom wants to follow up every post with
nitpickey little comments about what we did wrong, then I'm gonna
criticize him for it. He got on my bad side when he blasted me for
having an opinion, and thats something I don't take lightly.

99.9% of the answers I know on those shows are from my own independent study

Honestly, I can't even understand the Cliffs' Notes of Hamlet. I did manage
