"Say, any of you boys... smithies?"
"... or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise trained in the metallurgic arts before straitened circumstances forced you into a life of aimless wanderin'? "



(Going through my photobucket and came across this pic. The quote is one of my all-time favorites.) :D

1. Gopher, Everett?
If not the funniest movie ever, one of them. With music coordinated by the coolest guy in the universe, Mr. T-Bone Burnett.

3. Everyone would have been suspicious because a smithie is the
building where a smith works. Dead giveaway. Otherwise no one would have suspected a thing.

Still my all-time favorite comedy. Strange, since I'm not usually much of a Coen brothers fan.

37. How could I forget that one? And this:
Girl # 1: Daddy? He ain't our daddy. Our daddy was hit by a train.

Everett: Dammit! I wasn't hit by a train!

Girl #2: Yes you were.

Girl #3: Blooey!

Girl #4: Nothin' left.

Girl #5. Just a grease spot on the L & N.

:rofl:

38. Nitpick: A smithy is a work station. A smith is a metalurgist who has a smithy.
