Okay, so here is a post that's not so hip but boy, did this bring back great memories!
For those of you who were around in the year 1977, or not, there was a little movie called "Smokey and the Bandit" that has become a "Contemporary Classic." As you might know, I am hopelessly addicted to Comcast cable and this movie is one of the "Top 10 Go-Go Mommy Comedy Must Sees." KB and I watched it "On-Demand" last night and laughed so hard we were certain Poppy and Sweet Pea were going to wake up.
Other than Caddyshack or "The Godfather," this is the source of many quotes that KB and I have affectionately used over our many years together. For example:
"Thank ya nice lady. Nice a_ _!"
"What we're dealing with here is a complete lack of respect for the law."
"Did you see that? They went right through our roadblock." Jackie Gleason: "You some bitches couldn't close an umbrella."
"Let me have a diablo sandwich, a Dr. Pepper, and make it fast I'm in a GD hurry!"
"Junior, there is no way, NO WAY, that you could have come from my loins!" (Pronounced with 2 syllables: LOY-INS). (Wait, I think this was a quote that my father would say to us kids!)
Do you have a favorite too? If so, I'd love to hear it!
I tell you, there's nothing better than watching a boot-legging, fast car chasing, bar fighting, motorcycle stomping, movie with Jackie Gleason as a "good-ol boy" Sherriff, a run-away bride, a hound dog named Fred and plenty of "old time" "CB" lingo. "Highly recommended" on the comedy short-list!
You can also find me on the Silicon Valley Moms' Blog as JB.
My favorite is "I think I just went 10-100; I guess that is better than a 10-200"
Great post. I will be sure to read more.
Keep On Truckin!!!!
