My 10-year-old daughter has decided she is an environmentalist. So she talked me into participating in an aggressive recycling effort with her.
Last week she and I took what proved to be 134 pounds of cardboard boxes to the recycling center and earned $1.34. Counting gas and ice cream, we turned a profit of -$7.85. We’re going to use generally accepted accounting principles and see if we can apply this amount to our taxable income
Tuesday’s Movie Trivia of the day!‘ How much movie trivia can you answer?
What movie is this quote from??? “A two-bit hooker cut to look like Lana Turner is still a two-bit hooker.”
“She is Lana Turner.”
Answer: L.A. Confidential! In this scene Detectives Exley (Guy Pearce) and Vincennes (Kevin Spacey) spot gangster Johnny Stompanato (Paolo Seganti) at a nightclub table and want to question him. Detective Exley says the first line while attempting to shoo off Stompanato’s date, but Detective Vincennes makes the observation in the second line. An incensed Lana Turner (Brenda Bakke) throws a drink in Detective Exley’s face! The word “cut” refers to plastic surgery designed to make wannabe movie actresses look like famous stars. “L.A. Confidential” was nominated for Best Picture in the 1998 Academy Awards but lost to “Titanic.” Historical note: Some months later Stompanato would be stabbed to death by Turner’s 14-year-old daughter, Cheryl. However, Lana took the blame (supposedly to protect her daughter) and was found innocent since her testimony caused the death to be labeled a justifiable homicide. Some observers have said her testimony at the coroner’s inquest was the acting performance of her life.
