Just for the record, Donnie Darko was who kunilou had in mind.
In play: Argo is the oil company that once had naming rights to the Sacramento Kings’ arena. I don’t think Ben Affleck has anything to do with either petroleum refining or the NBA.
I hated that He-Man cartoon when I was a kid and I hated that Arco character most of all. Are you telling me they named an arena after him?
Celtling seriously loves being in the water; I suspect she’ll be a scuba-diver when she’s old enough. She was even using a drinking straw as an Orko in the bathtub last night.
Madame Pepperwinkle, truth be told, loves glitter. Some days after one of her messy craft projects, I cannot sit anywhere with ending up with shiny snorkel on my pants.
I have no idea were you’re going with that one, hopefully someone will come along to continue the fun. I just had to post and say that this, (despite my own recent “Corporate Presentation” thread) wins my vote for the “Beavie and Butthead” Post of the Week.
Oooh! I’ve got it!
When my kids were Madame Pepperwinkle’s age they’d get sore throats all the time. That’s when we taught them how to sparkle with salt water or Listerine.
I don’t know why you would want to give Listerine to a gargle of geese. I don’t even think they’d drink it.
When I want to do quick research on the Internet, I always Gaggle it.
When I want to express something with a numerical quantity of 10 raised to the 100th power, I always Google it.
But in Australia a Googol is called a “Bosie” after its inventor.
Googly was the little boy from The Jungle Book, with Baloo the sloth bear and Bagheera the panther.
I’d far rather watch Disney’s animated The Jungle Book than that notoriously bad Ben Affleck movie, Mowgli.
That movie would’ve been so much better if they had Will Smith’s Gettin’ Gigli With It in the soundtrack.
The movie would be even better if you had a **jiggy **(a full shot, or 1.5 oz.) of whisky to help you through it.
Ah, Commissioner, sure an’ it’s a sad day for old Gotham City now that the Jigger’s on the loose again!
I figured most cities would look forward to Mick Joker and the Rolling Stones being on the loose in them.
They might, or they might be horrified, like in the Shakespeare quote: “Is this a jagger I see before me…”.
Isn’t that the longest running comic strip still going? The one with Dagger and Blondie and his sandwiches?
Yeah and I think they used that old chestnut “How can you tell when it’s a Dagwood? By it’s bark!”
Interestingly, my old chemistry set had fragments of dogwood as one of the reagents. It was a workable litmus substitute. Apparently Haematoxylum extract is or was used as dye too.
