This is tough. Charles Bronson. He dug the escape tunnel in "The Great Escape" by himself. Hard to vote against the High Plains Drifter, but I will.

I spent one Christmas in Saudi Arabia. It wasn't a white Christmas.

So how many Thanksgiving holidays did you two spend overseas? I spent one in Hongkong and one in Saudi Arabia.

Eating Haggis properly is a formal occasion. I don't think chitterlings ever receive a parade, or have poetry read over them. Parade of the HaggisThe evening's highest bit of pomp. The chef, carrying in the haggis, follows the piper - playing Brose & Butter,or some other appropriate tune - in a more or less dignified procession through the hall (or house, or one bedroom flat). The chef lays the haggis, on it's groaning trencher, before the chairman at the high table. Address to a HaggisA previously designated reciter reads this poem over the haggis. A guid whisky gill is offered to the piper, chef and reciter, and with alacrity, the haggis is sliced open with the finely honed edge of a ceremonial dirk (though any old knife will do). The meal is then served with all its composite courses and copious helpings of guid ale and whisky. (I've seen some flavor their haggis with a dram of whisky, but I prefer both my pudden and whisky neat). More at the link. www.robertburns.org/suppers/itinerary.shtml

"he was one of the most bad .... guitar players of all time, may he rest in peace."
Agreed. Just when I thought disco had completely taken over, AC-DC arrived on the scene to save the world. Rest well, Angus.

If you don't like mushy meals, try these Haggis flavored chips.

Haggis smells better than chitterlings, but that aint sayin much.

Thor is definitely worth a rental or download. Since is still in theatres, it will be Easter or so before video sales begin. -I don't think that seeing it on a smaller screen will make the movie less enjoyable. The characters are what make this movie so fun to watch, IMHO.

Even NASCAR Cup cars are fuel injected now. It is simple electronic throttle body injection, rather than multiport injection.

I saw Thor- Ragnorok. It's a very entertaining movie with a surprising story line and fun characters. If you haven't seen it, what in the Nine Realms are you waiting for?

Tuning high performance cars with a laptop instead of a screwdriver doesn't appeal to me much either. -i do love these kits for turbo cars that allow you to change the boost with the flip of a switch. The engine doesn't begin to gulp fuel until you need it.

Add that stuff if you like to tinker and tune. Otherwise, leave her stock.

My favorite Stratham movie is the one where they kidnap him, remove his heart, and install an electrical heart with very short battery life. While hunting down the thieves that removed his heart, Stratham must continually find bizarre ways to recharge the battery in his e-heart.

Its tough to come up with a new pair every week. You can always PM me if you draw a blank, Kevin. You could also start a thread asking us to list suggested MM Monday pairings.
