I was worried for a quick sec there but we have the sizeable lead despite the best efforts of the screaming carrot demon to boost Sports Bar numbers with whatever the next psychotic, immoral, unethical, or straight up illegal thing he's going to do. No bemoaning not being able to fuck your daughter, Trump. We're trying to maintain a post lead here!

You ever seen Down by Law? It's a Roberto Benigni movie and it's black and white and it's fantastic. It's about three dudes breaking out of prison. Benigni, Tom Waites, and another guy. Good flick.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

I haven't. I can't think of a lot that I have seen. I'm not even sure if I've seen Young Frankenstein start to finish. I caught The Maltese Falcon on one of those Fathom Events showings. That was pretty cool. I've always meant to see Casablanca at some point. I've never even seen It's a Wonderful Life. Never seen Psycho all the way though either.
I have seen Shindler's List. Maybe a couple of others that I can't think of.I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...Comment

I never saw Airplane. I didn't see a lot of movies in the 80s and have only caught up with some of them since. I was Mennonite and movies were verboten.Originally posted by heyelander View Post"Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment

Moving from the big city to a tiny town in the Midwest, Kevin Seitzer was shocked to learn that his new small town had banned rock and roll and dancing. With the help of his plucky friend and rebellious girlfriend, he slowly convinces this conservative town and his girlfriend's stodgy, religious father, that dancing is pretty fucking cool after all. Oh, and movies, too, probably.Originally posted by Kevin Seitzer View PostMore American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

Not really. I know a few phrases, and I took German in college and some of that transfers. The first language for both of my parents was Plautdietsch, but they both struggled with learning English as a second language and didn't want their children to do the same. They would talk Plautdietsch to each other when they didn't want my brother and me to understand or sometimes just out of habit without thinking about it, but they didn't do it enough for me to become conversant.Originally posted by chancellor View Post"Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment

My wife's family was kind of like this, but with Spanish. For them, there was a lot of pressure to assimilate to white culture so they made all the kids converse only in English. Most of her family one generation up can speak at least some Spanish but her generation didn't get much at all.Originally posted by Kevin Seitzer View PostMore American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

Half of my wife's family is like that, and the other half is one generation up, with Cajun French.Originally posted by Bene Futuis View PostComment
