Blackbead Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 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!

Iron Jon Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Sounds like one from Planes, Trains & Automobiles. Jonathan Washbourne "Jonathan Washbourne Junr of Bridgwater appeared in court and was ordered to pay £5 fees and charges or be publicly whipped 20 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."

Blackbead Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 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??

Iron Jon Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 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?)

Iron Jon Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 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. Jonathan Washbourne "Jonathan Washbourne Junr of Bridgwater appeared in court and was ordered to pay £5 fees and charges or be publicly whipped 20 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."

BriarRose Kildare Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 The song and movie are called Alice's Restaurant Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.

BriarRose Kildare Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 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?

Blackbead Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 "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." Blackbead 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.

BriarRose Kildare Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Well played, me wild Briar Rose! And that means you are 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...

Blackbead Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 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.
