In the late 80's he predicted the outcome of last night's game. He was cleaning up one day and told Mr. McDowell the following: "The Giants of New York were taking on the Packers of Green Bay. In the end, the Giants triumphed by kicking a ball made of pigskin through a giant H". WOW! I wonder what else he was right about? Is he a modern-day Nostradamus?

Makes ya think....

Well, pigksin prognosticator maybe, but Nostradamus-- I don't think so-- the guy couldn't even pick out a woman that he could stay married to for more than a week, according to what I read in People magazine this morning at the dentist's office.

Hey, I started out mopping the floor just like you guys. But now... now I'm washing lettuce. Soon I'll be on fries; then the grill. And pretty soon, I'll make assistant manager, and that's when the big bucks start rolling in.

She's your Queeeeeeeeeeeeeeen-to-be. A Queen-to-be forever. A Queen who'll do whatever his highness desires. She's your Queeeeeeeeeeeen-to-be. A vision of perfection. An object of affection to quench your royal fire. Completely free from infection. To be used at your discretion. Waiting only for your direction. Your Queeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen-toooooooo-beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

I just saw this movie in its full HD format for the first time (I was too young and my parents were not hip enough to take me to the theater). Thanks to Tivo HD + FIOS + HDNet Movies, I've seen Coming to America, Rushmore, Fight Club, Tombstone, and High Fidelity in their original cinematic glory, all in the last week.

HD movies, sports, and Super Mario Galaxy will get me through this cursed writer's strike.

"I will cherish this moment for the rest of my life. The REST of my life!"
"Akeem, who was that?"
"Just some man I met in the restroom."

Telegraph Lady: You actually want to send this?
Semmi: Why? What is wrong? Read it to me.
Telegraph Lady: To His Majesty, King Jaffe Joffer, The Royal Palace, Zamunda. Sire, Akeem and I have depleted our funds. Kindly send 300,000 American dollars immediately, as we are in dire straits. Your humble servant, Semi.
Semmi: Semmi
Telegraph Lady: Semmi
Semmi: Should I make it 400,000?
Telegraph Lady: You think that'd be enough?
Semmi: You are right. 500,000.
Telegraph Lady: As long as you're asking, why not go for a cool million?
Semmi: You do not think that would be too much?
Telegraph Lady: Naah.
