Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes….
An influential Londoner wound up a business trip to the Orient with a visit to Taipei. At a luncheon he was asked to say a few words. Since he spoke not a word of Chinese, his address was to be translated by an interpreter sentence by sentence. “I want you to know,” he began, “I’m tickled to death to be asked here today.” A look of panicked confusion appeared on the interpreter’s face. “This poor man,” he said in Chinese, “Scratches himself until he dies, only to be with you today.” 😳

Tuesday’s Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from??? ”
‘Three tomatoes are walking down the street – a poppa tomato, a momma tomato, and a little baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind. Poppa tomato gets angry, goes over to the baby tomato, and smooshes him…and says, catch up.’
Answer: Pulp Fiction!
Mia (Uma Thurman) explained to Vincent (John Travolta) that she was going to be in a TV series called ‘Fox Force Five’. In each show, she would tell a joke. This joke was from the pilot. Mia delayed telling Vincent the joke all night because he’d laugh (or not) but she finally told him after he saved her life when she overdosed. ‘Pulp Fiction’ was released in 1994.

Yes! Five bands are coming to town within one week, and Georgia, Rachel, Jason, Carlos, and Lara are jumping for joy! Each one is a diehard fan of either Juanes, The Rolling Stones, U2, Green Day, or Coldplay. Figure out who likes which band, when each band performed, how long each concert was, and which souvenir each fan walked away with.
1) The 5 fans are Rachel, the Green Day fan, the Rolling Stones fan, the girl who spent 2 hours at a concert, and the one who left with a CD.
2) Georgia was so excited about Coldplay, she got in line at 6:00 Friday and waited 3 hours with all the other fans for the concert to begin. The concert ended at 11:00.
3) Lara’s U2 CD collection got a little bit bigger after the concert on Sunday.
