They ought to...

...crucify this guy As Forrest Gump once said, "That's all I have to say about that."

Also, Jim for Cobra Commander!

On to today's Chick Flick:

#8--How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003)

And to think, Matthew McConaughey was once Wooderson. The plot of this woman-movie goes like this: Benjamin Barry is an advertising executive competing with two female co-workers for a major campaign for a diamond merchant. He cuts a deal with his competitors that the account is his if he can make a woman of their choice fall in love with him in 10 days. In comes Andie Anderson who, in turn, is writing a story on how to lose a guy in 10 days as a bet with her boss to be allowed to write more substantial stories. As each tries to accomplish the goal, mayhem ensues. Notable for a couple of things: Adam Goldberg and Thomas Lennon as McConaughey's co-workers and sidekicks and for the only, to my knowledge, movie appearance of the card game "Bullshit", a great Natureboys pastime. Oh, and I would have killed the dog for pissing on the poker table.

Semi-Memorable Quote (For a guy):
Thayer: That it?
Tony: That's it?
Ben: [points to purse on desk] That's it.
Tony: Have you looked inside?
Ben: No.
Thayer: Do you have an ethical problem with rifling through a woman's purse?
Ben: Uhh, yeah, I guess I do.
Tony: Well, it's hardly a purse, dude, it's more like a... clutch or something.
Ben: Guys, a woman's purse, alright, it's her secret source of power. Alright? There are many dark and dangerous things in there, that we, the male species, should know nothing about.
