Its kind of like "Dewey, Cheatem and Howe, Esq." except you throw the rock, then, while hopscotching, chant "Schlemiel, Schlimazel, Hasenpfeffer Inc." Two traditional Yiddish words and a funny sounding word from the same region as Yiddish. The hopscotch sequence just made a catchy, temporary opening that they ended up keeping.<br /><br />(It's not male-bashing; and how the hell can you be "inherently" female??).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-61281342383493672022010-03-27T21:47:09.140-06:002010-03-27T21:47:09.140-06:00The movie idea is a bad bad idea...

Perhaps 'unlikable' is too strong of a word -- how about ill suited? These two are more known for their clutzy, cutesy sexpot roles.<br /><br />If he insists on going thorugh with this, I say bring in Kathryn Hahn as 'Laverne' Tina Fey as 'Shirley'.<br /><br />Sorry to get so verbose, my new blog friend. I just wanted to say thank you for becoming a new follower -- consider me the same.<br /><br />Looking forward to getting to know you better.<br /><br />Peace and serenity,<br />~Jo<br />'The End Of The Rainbow: Life After Bankruptcy'Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13169505163290328224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-26504327383176988992010-03-21T23:32:37.666-06:002010-03-21T23:32:37.666-06:00Hahha!
