Miami Vice---The cops are discussing known crime lords as possible suspects:

"What about (so-and-so)?"

"He's dead."

"Natural causes?"

"Yeah, congenital car-bomb!"

"From Dusk Till Dawn", with George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino, and Salma Hayek.  It was produced and directed by Robert Rodriguez, back in 1996.

On the matter of the elusive "Question", here is a piece that I wrote in my profile, under the "Confessions" section:

 

Yes, the answer is "42". But, what is the question? Even a mammoth supercomputer could not figure that out. Yet, it seems rather obvious. The question is: "How many people are important in an average person's life?" Does that not seem like an appropriate meaning? Consider the concept of "Six Degrees of Separation". 42 raised to the 6th power was roughly equal to the population of the Earth, when Douglas Adams wrote "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". QED

Well.done on the answer . I sometimes shock people  because i dont look like a geek but is there a geek look.  They will start of and i will just go the answer is 42 witch shocks them.

 

Also on page 1 there are quotes from the lost boys.

 

I will give you a hint. A music player is mentioned in the quote

I have my towel ready to go :)

Bit of nerdy trivia for ***ps: ASCII is how most computers represent letters and characters as numbers so the machine can understand them. Each character gets a number, and 42 represents * (an asterisk). The asterisk is the 'wildcard character' in computing acting as a stand-in for any other character. The name comes from card games, where a wild card is 'what you make it', meaning you get out what you put in.
