    Ok, guys, here's one I'll bet no one gets... and I'll even give you a few hints...

    Bruce Dern is playing poker with Dewey and Huey and tells them "We're not playing for 3 in 1 oil here guys." and then at the end of the movie Bruce says "Take care of the forest, Dewey."

    This is a real toughie... OK, goooo!

    Thought I was the only one quoting from the old classics

    Arsenic and Old Lace

    Repost quote :

    Tonight you can do me the honor of christening my forks.

    Forks?


    Yes, from Florence. New little invention. It's for pronging meat and carrying it to the mouth. It saves you dirtying your fingers.

    But then you dirty the fork.

    Yes, but it's washable.


    So are your fingers. I don't see the point.

    Wonder and NoHelp - Yeah. You guys got it right. Yep. Silent Running is correct. It is one of my favorites because this scenerio just might happen to the Earth. Scary.

    And here I thought I was going to stump you guys. Got to think up a real hard one for you. I'll be back with a goodie shortly.

    I see someone quoted one of my favorites, Princess Bride. Any time that comes up I have to offer this...

    Miracle Max: It just so happens that your friend here is only mostly dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there's usually only one thing you can do.

    Inigo Montoya: What's that?

    Miracle Max: Go through his clothes and look for loose change.
    Has this one been done?

    What are you doing now?

    Averting our eyes, oh Lord.

    Well, don't. It's just like those miserable psalms, always so depressing.

    Yep! Sorry, I know I read that one earlier, but forgot about it. Haven't been back here in awhile. I'll have to think about that one.

    I can Google with the best of them but I thought I'd let someone who may know give it a shot.

    Looks like you got us stumped so far, tom.

    While y'all are thinking about that, where's this from?

    OK I'll give a hint . It's a conversation between Peter OToole and Richard Burton.

    OToole reprised his character in this movie later in a movie I already quoted called 'The Lion in Winter ' .

    Ahhh... okay, it's a British movie isn't it? Well... set in old England type of movie? I seem to remember my parents watching a movie like that, and I'm sure it was O'toole and Burton. Was one of them a king, or royalty of some sort? I don't know if I would even know the name of it though. I might cheat and ask my mom... lol!

    Here's mine for today.

    Are you expecting a letter?

    Well, you never know. If I did get one, the stamp would certainly be worth saving.

    Yes it is Becket
