My heart beats silly like a big bass drum ... Re-Poll '84

"We have a piper down......it's all right, he's jest pissed!"

 

Great pull....fucking funny movie.

 

The neatest thing about the movie might be watching Anthony LaPaglia, who's so serious (and excellent) on "Without a Trace," constantly cracking up alongside Mike Myers as the dad.....it reminds me of how Harvey Korman would always lose it next to Tim Conway on "The Carol Burnett Show."

Perfect instance of LaPaglia trying (and failing) to keep a straight face:

It was also example No. 1,367 of how Phil Hartman could steal any damn scene he wanted.



"Now this is something the other tour guides won't tell you. In this particular cell-block, Machine Gun Kelly had what we call in the prison system, a 'bitch'. And one night in a jealous rage Kelly took a make-shift knife or 'shiv', and cut out the bitch's eyes. And as if this wasn't enough retribution for Kelly, the next day he and four other inmates took turns pissing into the bitch's ocular cavities. ... This way to the cafeteria!"

 

Kinda interesting tonight.

On XM 80s on 8, they had this June 9, 1984 episode from America's Top 40.

 

Damn. Since I used Cashbox's poll, I wonder how much different it was? Probably not much.

 

Bubs: This was just great, great stuff. Many props to you.
