| There were times today, hanging out with Steve, that I actually had to stop dead in my tracks and kneel down to compose myself and stop my head from going splat. Some quotes from the day: (after a random commercial for JCPenny or something) Steve: "I don’t want to be racist, but why are black people building a snowman in front of a white girl’s house?" (sad and dejected while playing Tecmo Super Bowl. Best. game. ever.) Me: "Sometimes I wish I had more than 4 plays to choose from..." (completely out of the blue on the way to the subway, in regards to The Godfather) Steve: "You know Sonny wouldn't have died if he had had EZPass." (considering our options after arriving late to a sold-out Walk The Line) Steve: "Let's score some weed." Finally, let's play Name That Quote. Five, count 'em five, arbitrary points to who tells me who said this first: "We can’t bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One of them is to tell ‘em stories that don’t go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville? I needed a new heel for m’shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what we called Shelbyville at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel. And in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on them. ‘Gimee five bees for a quarter,’ you’d say. Now where were we? Oh yeah. The important thing is that I had an onion tied to my belt—which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. All you could get was those big yellow ones…” |

michellestar | 11-20-05 11:43am Ok, so I reread the quote this morning and now I'm pretty sure it's not Grandpa Simpson, but I definitely have heard it before and it's killing me...I MUST KNOW! TELL ME NOW! |
