" Oh you fell for the oldest trick in the book, the 2nd of course is don't get involved in a land war in Asia, but the first is, Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line, Ahahahahahaha- hahahahahaha"
"Know what the difference between hitting .250 and .300 is? It's 25 hits. 25 hits in 500 at bats is 50 points, okay? There's 6 months in a season, that's about 25 weeks. That means if you get just one extra flare a week - just one - a gorp... you get a groundball, you get a groundball with eyes... you get a dying quail, just one more dying quail a week... and you're in Yankee Stadium." -- Crash Davis (Kevin Costner) in Bull Durham
Jaws is an absolute must for the month of June. I'm on vacation starting June 1, and you better believe it'll be on my dvd player at some point. It's the perfect early summer movie. It never gets old. The 3 main characters mesh so well together. It's without a doubt my favorite movie of all time, since I was a little kid.
I agree Sperg .. just awesome acting and cinematography
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."
I have a healthy respect/fear of the ocean. I’m not a big fan of swimming in it at least not out very deep. I don’t know that I’d just swim off a boat in the open ocean. When I use to scuba I didn’t feel as vulnerable as I felt more a part of the ecosystem and less like bait on the surface.
Sharks are apex predators. I’d rather walk across an African safari than swim in open ocean. At least I’d have a chance at seeing a lion coming. Maybe have a chance to spook it off.
good point ... for us, being fast and in our element in the water just isn't nearly good enough to have a 1% fighting chance

When it comes to movies, I usually need action or suspense. Or comedy. Movies like Dead Poet's Society is not really in my sweet spot. But I love the movie.
The last scene, where some of those institutionalized boys decide to think for themselves and do what they think is right, and damn the consequences, is a fantastic scene.
Buck: Well, well, well, they certainly are scraping the bottom of the barrel for cheerleaders these days.
Tia: What are you doing here?
Buck: We were just driving by to get some ice cream. Thought you might like to join us.
Tia: I said I would be home at 10. It's not even 9!
Buck: Who said anything about that? I thought you might like to join us for some ice cream. Maybe your Bug here can join us. We can talk about burying the hatchet. You know what a hatchet is, don't you, Bug?
Bug: It's an ax?
Buck: Sort of, yeah, yeah. I got one in my car if you'd like to see it.
Bug: I'll pass.
Buck: Fair enough. I like to carry it, you never know when you're going to need it. A situation may come up, say, for example, someone has been drinking, and about to drive a loved one home, then I'd like to know I have it. Not to kill, no. Just to maim. Take a little off the shoulder. Swish! The elbow. Slash! Shave a little meat off the old kneecap. Fowap! Ooooo! You got both kneecaps? I like to keep mine razor sharp. Sharp enough you can shave with it. Why, I've been known to circumcise a gnat. You're not a gnat, are you, Bug? Wait a minute, bug, gnat. Is there a little similarity? Whoaaa, I think there is! Ha ha ha. You understand what I'm talking about? I don't think you do. I'll be right back. Heh heh heh heh. [walks away]
Tia: I'm sorry.
Bug: Look, I think you'd better split. I don't exactly want him to go berserk with an ax on me.
Tia: He's all talk.
[Buck pulls out a small hatchet from his car] Buck: Here it is! Come over, come on, I want to show it to you. Maybe later. Okay.
"Lou, it's Charlie Donovan with the Cleveland Indians. How would you like to manage the Indians this year?!!!" "Gee...I don't know..." "What do you mean, you don't know. This is a chance to manage in the big leagues" "Lemme think it over, will ya, Charlie? I got a guy on the other line about some white walls."
"I thought you said we didn't have any high priced talent." "Forgot about Dorn. Cause he's only high priced."
"And the Indians drop this one, 6-to-one to the Rangers. For the Indians, one run on, let's see, one hit...that's all we got? One god-damned hit?"
"Heywood leads the league in most offensive categories, including nose hair. When this guy sneezes, he looks like a party favor."
"Forget about the curve ball Ricky, give him the heater!"
"Juuuusssst a Bit Outside"
I thought I was wrong once....but I was mistaken...
What's the use of wearing your lucky rocketship underpants if nobody wants to see them????
