I always enjoyed Fred Ward in the roles he played.  Rest in Peace, Mr. Ward.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Those were the main ones I remember.  Good movies.  I need to find Remo Williams.  I have Tremors.
