Update: Answers now at the bottom of the comments.
It’s back by popular demand. What started as a lark to fill a void turned into an apparently very popular post last week. So let’s do it again. You asked for it, and you’re getting it. That’s what she said. Movie quote Friday. We’ll take you through a brief tour of the news first: Um, that’s a pretty big filing error, wouldn’t you say, Mr. Bonds? Mr. Bonds. Where are you? No, that can’t be you in the picture. Next: Not only does the Wild get a shootout victory in Vancouver, but Brian Rolston gets in a fight for what is reportedly the first time in 13 years. And: The Gophers women’s hoops team won at Penn State for the first time ever and continued to carve out a path toward the NCAA tournament. More: An interesting picture of Brian McNamee. And, just for fun: We’ve apparently been linked to twice from this blog. Thanks, whatever and wherever you are. OK, now we’re going to get to the goods. But we’re going to make you jump for it. Again, that’s what she said.
1. Look, the most glorious rainbow ever!
2. If you’re not over here in fifteen minutes, you can find a new best friend. … You’ve been saying that since the fifth grade.
3. Hamburgers! The cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast. What kind of hamburgers?
4. When you decide to be something, you can be it. That’s what they don’t tell you in the church. When I was your age they would say we can become cops, or criminals. Today, what I’m saying to you is this: when you’re facing a loaded gun, what’s the difference?
5. Do you like Phil Collins? I’ve been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn’t understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual.
6. I have nipples, Greg. Could you milk me?
7. I don’t appreciate your ruse, ma’am. … I beg your pardon? … Your ruse. Your cunning attempt to trick me.
8. Your boss is quite a card player, Mr. Kelly; how does he do it? … He cheats.
9. You don’t owe it to yourself man, you owe it to me. ‘Cause tomorrow I’m gonna wake up and I’ll be 50, and I’ll still be doin’ this.
10. He was Vietnamese, so it was spelled “Ph,” but still that’s pretty jarring to see on a drivers license.
Roughkat: Please hold your comments for a while. Everyone else, have at it in the comments. There might be a few tricky ones in there.
Fasola-link! The roof at MSG.

Wow, I really suck at this. I can name two off the top of my head. I will assume they are the same two everyone else can name.
T.V. quotes might be a different story, let’s do those on Wednesday’s.
Crap, I was like most of the way through before I read the last line…

The links from blogsburg.de, a blog about life in Augsburg, Germany are from an automated RSS feed that searches for the word “Augsburg” and finds it in entries about Devean George.
We’ll see if they mine the comments and give you a third link. Guten Tag, Augsburg! Es ist kalt hier in Minneapolis! Tschuess!
“My name is Bond, James Bond, but I used to be a skinny kid. Now I am not”

8. The Sting, which is currently being sold for $8.67 at Costco. That’s like $1 for every Academy Award!
Is that picture really Barry Bonds, or is it, in fact, Todd Bridges?
Du bist ein dumkopf.

Man, Martin Lawrence used to be skinny. (/deadspin)
He resembles a young O.J. Simpson.

Does anyone know any chicks that are good at movie quotes? ‘Cuz I suck at it. I think it’s a guy thing. I might have a prayer on Molly Ringwald day.
AZ Gopher Girl, apparently there are two things that men can do better than women…impressions and movie quote trivia, otherwise we’re at a loss. I’m convinced that most women could be better than men at pretty much any video game if they actually cared to play it.
Here’s a different type of movie quiz - the Actor, Year and a Quote Hint are provided. Name the movie and the quote.
1) Matt Damon, 1999, Fakeness
2) Woody Allen, 1977, Metaphysics
3) Meryl Streep, 2007, Morning
“Apparently there are two things that men can do better than women…”
Dave - speaking of movie quotes, that line reminds me of one my all-time fave sports flicks. In light of the recent “romantic” sidebar to the figure skating championships at the XCEL…
“Hey, there’s only two things I do well sweetheart, and skating’s the other one.”
The Cutting Edge! I got one! Doug - I won’t even try yours.
Az you are right. I asked around. My women friends xcel at romantic movies like that line in that Billy Crystal movie (name forgotten) “I’ll have what sh’e having”. Even I remember that one since I’m waiting (and waiting) for the right moment to use it. But, “Apocalypse Now”, my fav. I don’t know any women who even saw it yet remembered the Bad Ass Colonel…

You forgot peeing standing up.
i want answers
jama, just got up..sat. head hurts, but I laughed at your “peeing standing up” line. How true. I have gone camping with a number of girlfriends over the years, and it always doubles me up (I have to pretend I have bad gas) looking at a woman doing a squat or sitting on a log peeing…hysterical to see…all the while having mosquitoes hungrily seeking fem flesh…priceless !
