Mark Twain wrote a short story called “The Story of the Old Ram”, where an old drunk starts to relate the story of his grandfather’s ram only to get sidetracked off the original subject, then sidetracked off the sidetrack, then sidetracked ^3, on and on, until after ten or fifteen minutes of rambling he passes out and we never find out what the heck was the deal with the ram ---

Be extra careful whom you watch this movie with. I took my wife to see it in the theatre. Being used to my obnoxiously vulgar sense of humor should have prepared her. It didn’t. I don’t know what made me laugh harder: the flick, or watching my wife grow more & more pissed that I took her to it!😛 ---

> [@Larry Mudd](#): > > I don’t see how you could forget her bit. It’s one of the things I remember best about the movie, and she isn’t one of my favourite comedians. She did a little bit that started off as a light anecdote about that old agent with the cluttered office (I forget his name) that got weirder and weirder until she deadpanned that he raped her. Hahahaha! > > I guess you had to be there. I was there. I didn’t laugh. My mileage varied quite a bit since I don’t find her at all funny. ---

I am a little surprized that Pat Robertson and his ilk haven’t raised a holy stink about this, seeing as how it seems to enjoy such a broad popularity. A good, graphic example of the moral depravity of scociety. Maybe somebody should send him the link 😃 ---

> [@Marley23](#): > > I also can’t prevent florist Friars. enh, I prefer “not a monk” to “florist friars”. The latter I’ve only ever gotten fifteen minutes out of. The former I’ve run all night. ---

You heard it here (way too long in coming) first. In fact, I want my epitaph to read “Was first to say Mark Twain sucked”, but I’m sure it wouldn’t be true. Besides, I plan to get roasted. ---

I didn’t look at the video box [cover](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/B000C3L2NE/ref=dp_primary-product-display_0/002-8714989-4973617?%5Fencoding=UTF8&n=130&s=dvd) very hard! That dog looks EXACTLY like our pug! My wife will shit bricks when she sees that. She really hated that film.😛 ---
