500 points to chad for the correct answer to the movie quote... but i will give recognition to amy, who i know knew the answer and would have been faithful to answer correctly had she not been beat to it... i am kind of liking the competition... amy's swept all the points, so far i think... speaking of... i'm going to do a quick recap...

i don't have dates with these - but these are open quotes from previous posts (rhymes?) and amy gets the points from 7/10 for say anything - even though she didn't say the title... so amy has 1000 points... chad has 500 points... the rest of these are open and available for points... enjoy!

"Bert: Uncle Albert, I got a jolly joke for just such an occasion. Would you like to hear it?
Uncle Albert: I'd be so grateful.
Bert: Well it's about me granddad, see, and one night he has a nightmare. So bad, he chewed his pillow to bits. Bits. In the morning, I says, "How you feeling, Granddad?" He says, "Oh not bad, a little down in the mouth".
[They laugh]
Bert: I always say there's nothing like a good joke.
Uncle Albert: And that was nothing like a good joke. "

Gib: I flunk English, I'm outta here. I gotta get a job, and you know what that means. That's right, they start me at the drive-up window and I gradually work my way up from shakes to burgers, and then one day my lucky break comes: the french fry guy dies and they offer me the job. But the day I'm supposed to start some men come by in a black Lincoln Continental and tell me I can make a quick 300 just for driving a van back from Mexico. When I get out of jail I'm 36 years old. Living in a flop house. No job. No home. No upward mobility. Very few teeth. And then one day they find me, face down in the gutter, clutching a bottle of paint thinner and why? Because you wouldn't help me in English.

worth 500 points:
