Assuming that I am correct in that last guess, let's try a true Thanksgiving classic:

Character one: You're in a pretty lousy mood, huh?

Character two: To say the least.

#1: You ever traveled by bus before?

#2 shakes head.

#1: Hmmm. Your mood's probably not going to improve much.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, EVERYONE!

Sounds like one from Planes, Trains & Automobiles.

stripes for his abusive and uncivil behaviour to Elizabeth Canaday Late of said Bridgwater by Thrusting up or putting of a skunk

under the Cloaths to her Naked Body And then saying he had Done the office of a midwife." (from The Plymouth Journal, July 1701)

Right you are, Iron Jon! ANd YOU are now up!

By the way, would you be willing to pay $15 plus shipping for a "white on black" t-shirt that featured the Twain quote you use as part of your signature??

OK then, here's another Thanksgiving classic -

He said, "... we found your name on an envelope at the bottom of a half a ton of garbage and just wanted to know if you had any information about it."

And I said, "Yes, sir..., I cannot tell a lie, I put that envelope under that garbage."

(Blackbeard - you got any pictures of the T-shirts?)

For anyone still playing, here's a bump and a hint...

The 1969 movie was adapted from a 1967 folk song/story that is now traditionally played on the classic rock radio stations on Thanksgiving day.

That's right ! I knew it was easy but the post got lost down somewhere at the bottom of the page.

This dialogue is from one of my favorite movies.

Person # 1: You killed him?

Person #2: I didn't kill him.

Person #1: What happened?

Person #2: I don't know. Maybe the guy cut himself shaving and bled to death looking for a Kleenex?

"The Golden Child"!! I love the scene in the airport when he's telling the bad guy about what will happen to the knife if he gets arrested. This is another one of those "class of culture" movies that I love so much.

Since I'm SURE that's the right answer, here's another one about sharp, pointy objects:

"Oh, THAT knife."

PS: Iron Jon: First, it is BlackBEAD (I'm the pirate without the "rrrrr") and secondly, check out my website, www.blackbead-jewelry.com, there's a picutre of the regular t-shirt. The one I'm proposing is just like that but with the quote and Twain's name on the front.

"In the end, it's not the gold that sets our sails,

'Tis freedom and the promise of a better life

That raises our black flags."

Aye that is correct. I need to get The Golden Child on dvd.

Yer up.

I think I kind of like the sound to that "wild BriarRose"

Any way here is the quote:

Any news on the boyfriend front?

I was kind of seeing someone: an author.

And what happened?

He committed suicide.

Oh I'm so sorry.

It's alright. I didn't really like him very much. I liked him even less after he committed suicide.

How did he do it?

He threw himself off a building. He didn't even do that properly. It was only a 3 story building. He would have survived only a car ran him over.

What sort of books did he write?

Self-help books...

Now, that's one of those smart British comedies, that is . . . I just have no idea which one!

I would say "Love Actually" but I just saw that one not too long ago and this quote sounds in now way familiar.

"In the end, it's not the gold that sets our sails,

'Tis freedom and the promise of a better life

That raises our black flags."

Aye it is a British comedy, however it is not Love Actually. Do you need a hint?

Ahoy there, me Wild BriarRose!

I have NO idea . . . there's a buddy of mine who is really into film (graduate of the University of Texas' Radio, Television and Film School) and he thinks he's heard of a British "Big Chill" movie but he doesn't know the name. I give . . .

Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
