[Update: My husband pointed out that I had the same quote twice. So I changed #12. This should help the attitude problem these quotes seem to have.] Links to other Thursday Thirteens! |
The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

My TT is up!

Anybody want a peanut?
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. (I used that one today!)
i could go on forever, but I'll stop now.
dude, what a tough household ;-)
Thanks for visiting!
You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The first and most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia. But only slightly less famous is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha....thunk.
Hee, hee, hee. Now I gotta get out the old DVD again.
I've never seen The Princess Bride. I'll have to put it on my Netflix list...it sounds funny.
Fun list!!! Happy Thursday!!
That was a fun list!
My TT is up
Oh man! Carmen beat me to my favorite quote.
Oh well, kindred spirits tend to do that, right Scone?
Love, love, love this movie! Jenny, a TT newbie :)
Oh..one of my favorite movies. Reading the list made me want to go and watch it again!
I love that movie!

My dad and I toss this around, usually only the first part, so it goes like this, "You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: Never buy your wife a vacuum cleaner for Mother's Day" or any other thing that one of us has done that seems like a classic blunder...
Nice, I meant to actually make it italics. The new message board for my homeschool group is UBB instead of HTML, and I'm getting all cornfused.
Sigh.
I'm glad other people love this movie as much as I do. You're right, Carmen, you could just go on-- the whole movie is a big string of quotable lines. I didn't put in all of our favorites-- like, "Wait till I get going!", the land war in Asia one (I do that same thing, Jen!), and the "It's possible..." line.
Here's a bit of trivia for PB buffs: there really was a dread pirate named Roberts-- Bartholomew Roberts, aka Black Bart. He was known as the most successful pirate on the Spanish Main, although nobody can figure out how he managed to capture 400+ ships when he was only marauding 4 years. He started as a sailor on a ship called "Princess"-- and that, as Andy Rooney said, is the rest of the story.
