Is that why you look like Bigfoot?

 

Speaking of DC. I stopped in the 7/11 this morning on the way to work. Guy ahead of me speaking Arabic. Girl behind me speaking Russian. Gal behind the counter speaking Pashtu. Gotta love America. Land of the free, home of apparantly everybody.

Damn. Could have had your own reenactment of the Afghan war right there...

 

Bigfoot doesn't have as much cranial volume...I'm more of an evolved Bigfoot...

How can you be sure?  Which dialect was she speaking?  Was she from the Mountain Division?

I asked her. She was talking to her brother stacking cartons of Marlboros. Actually, pretty cute, too.

Man, some of you have no creativity in choosing a user name. My real name's Tchazibidan Dzietschewhnikogrossvidibaden, but I decided to shorten it up.... :lol:

 

Hey, Ramius, didn't Connery do an excellent Russian accent in that movie? Unbelievable! He is the king of foreign accents, kills them in every movie he's in.

and dev, why is it that I always try dragging rudy's posts over to your user name? :D

How do you know? Have you had a discussion on nuclear arms with him? He might be smarter than you think. After all your cats and gerbils are smarter than you.

Yeah but I bet she's got hair in places that women should not have hair.

But serious you don't even live in DC.  Why DC Tom?

I'm inside the eltway - er, beltway - so it's close enough. How many of us say we're "from" Buffalo who've actually lived out in Lancaster or Cheektowaga?

I figured that was where Ramius got Ramius, but if I said so I would have been told I was just acting like Darin.

 

You really need to read the book. Much more interesting than the movie. Though SC was good in it.

 

"Personally, I give us one chance in three". Better than what the Bills are facing.

I saw that movie with a Russian. I asked her how his Russian was, she said "I don't know, I couldn't understand him, his accent was horrible." Apparently Scottish brogues and the Russian language don't mix well.

"Some things in here don't react too well to bullets."

 

That movie was just on cable this past weekend. Considering the relative complexity of the book, I always thought they did a reasonable job of distilling it to a feature film.

It's the only one of the books that they did a decent job with. Indiana Jones playing Jack Ryan didn't work.

I agree, the book is absolutely fantastic...if you even remotely liked th emovie, the book is a must read (altho i am a book first first, movie second kinda guy) I actually like all of Clancy's stuff...him and Stephen King are my 2 fav authors...

I like Clancy, and try to get into King, but can't. He drones on and on and his books go nowhere. I have probably 6 or 7 half read novels of his.

Indiana Jones? I thought it was Han Solo who played Jack Ryan.

 

Go figure.

if you have trouble getting into king's longer novels, and if you are still interested, try "night shifts", "Skeleton Crew" or "Nightmares and Dreamscapes" ...they are 3 books of his short stories...ranging from 5-40 pages a piece...they are great and he gets right into the story, no BS-ing...i can read those at night and still be a bit scared going to sleep...

I was referring more to the mindset. Damn rich kids with dogs take everything out of context.

Worked better than freaking Alec Baldwin. Still, the worst transgression in all of them was Dafoe as John Clark. Give me a break.
