Bob won't let me watch Christmas movies until Nov 1.
I have, in the past,bluffed my way around this by watching Holiday Inn which isn't exclusively a christmas movie.
It has a sckookum 4th of July number with Fred Astaire, fire crackers and a lit cigarette. Must have been a prop mans nightmare as the caps(tasped to the floor) were triggered to go off at precise moments in the dance.

Okay so my streets are where the boys play half the time anyway - not really a punishment. Maybe I should make them listen to my jokes for an hour?

At 4:25am on July 5, 2007, LC Fraser said…: wouldn't want to wipe them all out with one banana peel? it is okay - we don't seem to be able to pinpoint the culprit (oh that is a new one around here in the home of Ida Know and Not Me).

At 4:22am on July 5, 2007, Merrill Young said…: that's not a very appealing consequence, Lynne.
I hope no body slips up in their deportment.

At 4:19am on July 5, 2007, Merrill Young said…: or maybe not- according to Google A horses neck is bourbon or brandy based, a Horses HEAD is gin based.
Sounds a bit too Godfadda-ish for me.
Ick.

We love The Princess Bride here too. Great movie.

So - can you get dna from a banana peel and if so, is it okay to tell you kids that once they identify the sibling who left said banana peel in the family room that they can then dismember him (or her)? Dismember, in this context, means to cut off from membership in those allowed into that room or to eat bananas in this house.

At 4:15am on July 5, 2007, Merrill Young said…: and i'm buying-

Horses Necks all around.
That's gin and gingerale, FYI.

At 4:12am on July 5, 2007, Merrill Young said…: or when, surrounded on every side by hostile Indians, the Lone Ranger said- "Tonto! What are we going to do?"

"What you mean WE, white man?"
The Lone Rangers nephews horse question if a quote from A Christmas Story.
Dad is doing the corossword and that is one of the clues. "Name characters from great literature"
Apparently, his name was Victor-
'everybody knows that."

Sorry, I can quote ad nauseum from that film and from the Princess Bride- read both the books, too.

At 3:33am on July 5, 2007, LC Fraser said…: More than I remember about it. Guess Merlot has to win that round. (Does that mean we buy her a round or she buys us one?)

At 3:23am on July 5, 2007, Jack Quick said…: All is I remember was when they visited the barnyard and Tonto said don't step in the kemo sabe...

At 3:19am on July 5, 2007, LC Fraser said…: Grey (or gray - depending on where you are from).

Did the Lone Ranger have a nephew with a horse? I never saw the show.

At 2:49am on July 5, 2007, Jack Quick said…: Obviously it isn't white ?
or black?
green?

At 2:39am on July 5, 2007, LC Fraser said…: So far not a single guess on the colour? I am disappointed in you guys. The answer is not as easy as you all seem to think.

At 3:12pm on July 4, 2007, Jack Quick said…: Alex, I'll take equine fantasies for $5...

At 2:33pm on July 4, 2007, Merrill Young said…: YA_BUT, Jack, the actual fast food never looks as good in real life as it does on TV.
They must have stand-in food.
Hi Patricia!
We just drop in to distract Jack from his duties every so often.
Lynne! How about the name of the Lone Rangers nephews horse?

At 1:35pm on July 4, 2007, LC Fraser said…: well thanks for the help guys - I think that huge cheesecake is pretty much gone! Well done.

Patricia, we play scrabble too. And Trivial Pursuit.

Question --- for 100 points --- what colour was Napoleon's white horse?

At 11:24am on July 4, 2007, Jack Quick said…: Have a nice slice or blueberry cheesecake, Patricia and sit a spell

At 10:50am on July 4, 2007, Patricia said…: so this is where the foodies hang out! Don't you guys have anything better to do....oh wait...books & food..
