Citizen Kane ref in tonight's episode

No one has mentioned it in the recaps, but Quimby mentions building an opera house for a chick he's banging that can't sing just like CFK did.

No one has mentioned it because no one else here has seen the movie. They're basically all morons. They actually think there's a cane in Citizen Kane.

I've seen Citizen Kane a few times. So nyaahh!

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three. - Elayne Boosler

1. I have seen the Godfather movies and read the book. 2. Seen most of Kubrick's movies, and read 2001. 3. Read all of Leon Uris' novels up to "The Haj". 4. I have also read Tom Wolfe, Joseph Heller, Herman Wouk, Herman Melville, John Dos Passos, and other famous authors. 5. I have seen most of Scorcese's movies. 6. I am fairly familiar with popular culture dating back to the 1960s. 7. Getting away from novels, I have read Lester Thurow, Milton Friedman, Daniel Yergin, William Greider, etc. 8. And, I have sex with beautiful women fairly regularly.

Orson Welles was in "Catch 22", btw. And also in "Is Paris Burning". I saw both movies, and read both books.

And the relevance of this list is what? To make you feel better about yourself? If so, then congratulations. Also, don't forget that your mom says you're cool.

Did you see that "Mafia" movie with Jay Mohr too?

But did you read "The Sentinel?"

Only Jewish people read Leon Uris.

Classic Comics or Cliff Notes?

That's quite an achievement, since they're so hard to find in a video store.

Watch VH1, do you?

Milton Friedman??? MILTON FRIEDMAN!!!! Wow, you must be a big fan of watching paint dry and waiting for pots of water to boil.

How much do they charge, and do you check the size of their adam's apples?

He also was in wine commercials.

Your eyes must really be tired, especially with all of this heavy newsgroup reading you do.

Hahaha. I read the Classic Comics when I was a pre-adolescent, and read the real thing later.

No, ESPN Classic. Except for the stuff that I saw first hand, like the Beatles, the 1969 Mets, the 1967 Green Bay Packers, John Wayne, etc.

Hahaha again. No. For free. They all had college degress, too. One of them was an MD.

Get a life. I am trying to refute the earlier poster's assertion that we are morons. OK?

I thought Citizen Cane was a Rap Star! :-P
