You, too, could be a Hollywood screenwriter!
Here are some “memorable quotes” from the “The Smurfs” movie, according to IMDB:
Smurfette: Oh… my… Smurf.
Grouchy: Where the Smurf are we?

Clumsy: Keep your smurfs to yourself!
Smurfette: You smurfed with the wrong girl!
Patrick Winslow: SMURF, SMURF,...

My father, who passed away last year, often shared this recollection of Martin Luther King’s March on Washington. Dad worked in Washington for IBM at the time, heading up what was then an all-white law department (which he made a point of integrating by recruiting and hiring some of IBM’s first black lawyers).
As the day of the March approached, a bunch of of his work colleagues...
I am ashamed to admit that I only just learned that Mark Wahlberg was Marky Mark.

The heat is on the heat is on the heat is on
My furnace stopped working this morning, but I just got it fixed. So now I’m feeling nice and warm again. The trouble is, I now have Glenn Frey’s “The Heat is On” running through my head and I can’t make it go away.

Given that I live way up in the sticks of Western Connecticut, it’s always been nice to have this little folk club only a 10 minute drive from my house. I saw Suzanne Vega and Rick Danko play here, among many others.
So yeah .. this bums me out.
