"It wasn't the airplanes.  It was beauty killed the beast."

[Druxy]

I could do this all day, but I'm going to do some work now.

 

[Elan]

too tired to think of any movie lins right now

but comedy movies that I can watch over and over again include teh aforementioned
Whats Up Doc

The Russians Are Coming. The Russians Are Coming

The Inlaws (the original version with Alan Arkin & Peter Falk - not the remake)

Blast From the Past

Seems Like Old Times

The In-Laws! Holy Moly, that takes me back... my father was (and is) a huge "Columbo" fan, and we watched that movie together once: for the next month, we couldn't stop saying "serpentine, serpentine!" whenever an opportunity arose (and it's surprising how often it did...)

[FJL]

I was moved to do something on the re-naming of a Broadway theater for Foxwoods, so here goes (it's very short, like 55 seconds)

[Lowell]

I'm listening to the London Cast of PROMISES PROMISES. That unpleasant lady playing the lead, whom I once sold an important recording to, will never be a singer whose voice (or attitude) I like or admire: her belt is only good for peeling pain off walls.

"Peeling pain off walls"....that was my diagnosis from the last seven doctors I saw this year!

[ArnoldMBrockman]

Well, you've read the notes, the title of the notes couldn't even fit in this topic header, hence the unseemly abbreviation, and now it is time for you to post until the unseemly cows come home - they're convinced that the pellet with the poison is in the vessel with the pestle.

GET IT. GOT IT. GOOD!

[Dan (the Man)]

"Certainly you must have heard of "Hamlet!"
"Well, I meet so many people."

Love that line.  I've met people like that.

What film is it from?

DR Druxy, that was Margaret Early to Eve Arden in STAGE DOOR (a movie that is chock-full of great lines!)

[Dan (the Man)]

"Well, there's the trapdoor, the humidor and the cupsidor--how many doors would you like?"

"Oh, Linda--Mr Powell's car is here!  Mr. Powell isn't here, just his car!"

...and the infamous:
"The calla lilies are in bloom again. Such a strange flower, suitable to any occasion. I carried them on my wedding day and now I place them here in memory of something that has died"

[ArnoldMBrockman]

And the word of the day is: GERENT!

And The Song Of The Day Is: I WONDER WHAT THE KING IS DOING TONIGHT

[Jrand73]

TA DA!

Received two telephonic phone calls that require MUCH action today - and unexpected ones at that!  Whew.  I feel like MR BK.

[Jrand73]

So much for my plans of working on my Act Two Lines today.

[Jrand73]

I haven't even listened to the London PP CD that arrived!  So I don't know from no hidden track.  Dammit.

[Jrand73]

TOD:

So many including those already referenced, of course.

"This is Rufus T. Firefly coming to you through the courtesy of the enemy. We're in a mess folks, we're in a mess. Rush to Freedonia! Three men and one woman are trapped in a building! Send help at once! If you can't send help, send two more women!"

Any movie with Groucho and Margaret Dumont gets high marks in my book!

[Ginny]

Hmm...nodded off for a nap again...

[Ron Pulliam]

"Hannah and Her Sisters":

Gail: Listen, kid, I think you snapped your cap. Maybe you need a few weeks in Bermuda or something. Or go to a whorehouse!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mickey: And Nietzsche, with his theory of eternal recurrence. He said that the life we lived we're gonna live over again the exact same way for eternity. Great. That means I'll have to sit through the Ice Capades again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mickey's Father: How the hell do I know why there were Nazis? I don't know how the can opener works!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mickey: A week ago I bought a rifle, I went to the store - I bought a rifle! I was gonna, you know, if they told me I had a tumor, I was gonna kill myself. The only thing that might-ve stopped me - MIGHT'VE - is that my parents would be devastated. I would have to shoot them also, first. And then I have an aunt and uncle - you know - it would've been a blood bath.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[after learning Mickey is infertile]
Hannah: Could you have ruined yourself somehow?
Mickey: How could I ruin myself?
Hannah: I don't know. Excessive masturbation?
Mickey: You gonna start knockin' my hobbies?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mickey: I had a great evening; it was like the Nuremberg Trials.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Norma: It's a good thing that we had a talented daughter!
Evan: I can only hope that she was mine! With you as her mother, her father could be anybody in Actor's Equity!

[Ron Pulliam]

"Love and Death"

Sonja (Diane Keaton): "That is incredibly jejune".
Boris (Woody Allen): That's jejune? You have the temerity to say that I'm talking to you out of jejunosity? I am one of the most june people in all of the Russias!"

[Jane]

From Cilla:

I really enjoyed The River of Doubt.  I guess I should say I found it fascinating, I wasn't familiar with that part of his life.
Perhaps you should rotate in something uplifting or happy Wink

So true but I ended up reading my own book, Every Man Dies Alone.

I didn't know River of Doubt was a happy book.  I like that.

[Dan (the Man)]

Given that problem, the recording sounds spectacular!

I'm listening to it now.  The slower tempos take some getting used to.  Tony Roberts occaisionally has trouble sustaining those notes.  And BB seems to be doing a Jill O'Hara impersonation.  But still, lots of fun listening to this recording...

[Dan (the Man)]

"Well, the universe is everything, and if it's expanding, someday it will break apart and that would be the end of everything!"
"What is that your business?  You're here in Brooklyn! Brooklyn is not expanding!"

[Dan (the Man)]

"No, you must be Don Francisco's sister."

[Dan (the Man)]

"Hawk!  I hear the cannon's rawh!  It is the king approaching?"

I didn't mean River of Doubt is a happy book. I was fascinated, but it wasn't happy.  I was just saying with all the doom, a happy book would be nice.

I'm up and awaiting the arrival of Shelly Markham.

[Cillaliz]

Phew!  I get so much email everyday, I decided I better check with Verizon to see what it would cost me to get email on my blackberry in Canada.  I'm glad I did.   Between the 69 cents extra per minute for phone and the price of data..(I literally get hundreds of emails every day related to work)  It was much cheaper for me to get the plan including Canada and then change back when I come home than it would have been for me to pay all the roaming fees.   I wouldn't have bothered it I wasn't getting ready for trial and the office is closed so I have to check messages a couple times a day for emergencies etc. 

[Cillaliz]

Ok, a few more things to wrap up at the office then I"m off to lunch

[Ben]

Take the cannoli

[Dan (the Man)]

Last night DR Laura stated:

I am now the proud owner of a Home Composting Unit and am ready for the FUN to begin!!!

I recently bought my sister one as an early birthday gift.  It's called the Ecomposter.  It comes in a box unassembled.  There are over 500 parts.

[Dan (the Man)]

Take the cannoli

Any place in particular?

[Lowell]

I'm up and awaiting the arrival of Shelly Markham.

I've been up and awaiting the arrival of Shelly Fabares...for the past 40 years, actually.

You'd think she'd call and tell me she wasn't coming.
