Intermission

This was just too interesting to wait until the end of part two of my dating history. Apparently, Blockbuster has polled 4,000 people to find the ten funniest movie scenes of all time. Reading the list, however, I was shocked. There were a few I expected...the hair gel scene from There's Something About Mary, for example. (Ha ha! It's really semen...get it?!) But there were some very surprising inclusions, and some glaring omissions. (There'd have to be, wouldn't there, since although the claim is the funniest scene of all time, there's no film there before 1974.)

  1. Thanks for the break, dude. I'm gonna get the Tom Waits ready and get a couple of beers in me for part II. It'll work great with everyone going to the big helo-hanger party tonight (helo pilots, now they get the girls) and me working late only to get up early to work late some more.

  2. You're welcome for the intermission. I felt I needed one, since this thing is really like two separate stories, kinda like Full Metal Jacket. Tom Waits could be a good choice. "Grapefruit Moon" has always been one of my favorites.

    And what is it with those helo guys, anyway???

  4. Dude, I'm suprised you're being this calm about the list. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, but no Jerk? WTF?
