Default Gotta love those old 70's distaster Movies.

About 3 months ago I had the roto rooter man over to unclog my main sewer line and after I heard him struggling and mumbling for about an hour I went down to see how it was going and he told me it doesnt look good, the mega snake that he was using wasn't doing the job, and that he would have to come back tomorrow with the "big guns". I looked at him then turned my head a bit, starred at the pipe and gave him my best George Kennedy impersonation and said " GOD DAMMIT MIKE, we gotta have that pipe cleared now, you hear me NOW god dammit, if you dont its curtains for all of us and all of humanity" then I clenched my teeth and made a fist . needless to say Mike wasn't as amused as I was and he just shook his head and said tomorrow right, and I said sure sounds great man.
I really miss that kind of passion and over acting of those old movies. I would love to take my "George Kennedy" impersonation with me to work from now on like ..........."GOD DAMMIT lady if you cant decide on Decora or standard Id hate to think of the consequences". or George at the super market "FOR THE love of god these bannanas are starting to brown, someone get me a botanist NOW.

I think im still buzzed from last night........

Famous unknown quotes:

George Takei :
' i dont think your ship is going to fit in there",
"see you later im going down to uranus''
give him the heat seekers
laser torpedo, fire 1..





what does toilet paper and star trek have in common?

They both circle uranus looking for clingons....
