Politics is not my usual subject on this blog. I reserve it for my thoughts of inspiration and love for home and family.
.
But as I've posted previously, it's becoming more difficult to separate the two subjects. This isn't really political in nature. It's just something that hubs and I found to be hilarilously funny!
.
Last night, we were cruising the channels and caught the end of a speech given by Senator John Edwards. He ended his talk with the phrase...."and you can take that to the bank".
.
Hubs sat up and said "What was that he just said? I can't believe he said what I think he said!!"
.
"Yep...he said it alright!" and we started laughing. This is just indicative of the ridiculous times in which we're living.
.
To explain the point of all this....this line was lifted from the 1990 movie, Hard to Kill, starring Steven Seagal. I'm sure all of you have seen Seagal as Mason Storm in this movie. But something you may not remember is the line from the corrupt senator, Vernon Trent..."You can take that to the bank! , referring to some of his mendacious activiites to a group of his cohorts, which just happened to be caught on tape.
Now, don't you think John Edwards could have come up with a better quote from a nicer person? I think this could be considered an "Ooops"!

Edwards is like Britany,: OOPS I did it again. Both of them needs to be in rehab.
Why am I not surprised?
Next...he may want to use, "I'll be baaack"...a la Arnold! :)

Mr. Kane was a man who got everything he wanted, and then lost it. Maybe Rosebud was something he couldn't get, or something he lost. Anyway, I don't think it would have explained everything. I don't think any word can explain a man's life. No, I guess Rosebud is just a piece in a jigsaw puzzle...a missing piece
I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?
Never give up! Never surrender!
I'll be all around in the dark - I'll be everywhere. Wherever you can look - wherever there's a fight, so hungry people can eat, I'll be there. Wherever there's a cop beatin' up a guy, I'll be there. I'll be there in the way guys yell when they're mad. I'll be there in the way kids laugh when they're hungry and they know supper's ready, and when people are eatin' the stuff they raise and livin' in the houses they built - I'll be there, too

Soon they'll be breeding us like cattle! You've got to warn everyone and tell them! Soylent green is made of people! You've got to tell them! Soylent green is people!
Of course, the expression "you can take that to the bank" was around before "Hard to Kill" (1990). Baretta was fond of saying it in "Baretta" (1975-1978)

Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We're on double-secret probation, whatever that is. We can't afford to have a toga party.

Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?

At 0500 we'll open up with small arms fire. The 7th will move across at the same time. I'm sure the Jerries will throw some entertainment our way.

“The true meaning of America, you ask? It's in a Texas rodeo, in a policeman's badge, in the sound of laughing children, in a political rally, in a newspaper... In all these things, and many more, you'll find America. In all these things, you'll find freedom. And freedom is what America means to the world. And to me.”
You asked me if I have scars? Yessir, I have my scars.
Great party, but no whiskey. We go home.
