Definitely too mature for me!!

I like the "minky", though.

And the revolving door. And the telephone repairman.

Everybody knows the Pink Panther movies, and everybody says how great he was in multiple roles in "Dr. Strangelove" (and he was), but I think "Being There" is one of the best, understated, funniest (while also sad), most under-rated movies ever. The humor is so dry, but Sellers is freaking hysterical (the outtake at the end is priceless). And the best part of the above line is that Shirley MacLaine decides that she will be bold and "perform" for him so he can watch; but as always, he only watches the TV. Classic.

Also one of his last films, I think.

I knew I could count on you!

OK, where's the first quote from? Early 60's, it has some of the funniest sight gags & slapstick ever put on film.

I had assumed that it was a Pink Panther movie, like when the bird gets sucked into the vaccuum or something. But no, it's "The Party", 1968. I never saw it. I only got the answer by checking imdb.com . I guess it's on my "to do" list!

Worth a trip to Blockbusters, that's fersure.

Okay so now that the love fest is winding down, can I please get someone to explain the joke I missed? It's not that I care if I look dumb, but I need a good laugh about now...

Juulie, Tony's initial "thank you" was less than sincere, but you said that Mark P was the real backcourt maven of the forum.

Heck, is that all? I KNEW that! Maybe I'm not as dumb as I look. I was really just trying to rustle Mark into the discussion, but he didn't bite. Oh, well. I guess I need to find some Pink Panther to cheer me up a little....

I've got another scenario. My son was playing the other night and was dribbling in the FC. He momentarily lost control of the ball which headed for the BC but never crossed. His back leg did. This isn't a BC violation, is it? The ref said part of his body crossed so it was.

If he was dribbling the ball went his leg went into the BC, then yes, it was a violation.

Thanks for explaining, Chuck.

Just read in the newspaper that Steve Martin is going to play Inspector Cloussea in a new pink panther movie (for what its worth)
