1."Daily Show, The" (1996)
Jon Stewart: Even if the flag burning amendment does become law, the larger problem will remain of how to respectfully dispose of older, tat* flags. Well, fortunately the U.S. official Flag Code has a suggestion about this. "The flag, when it is in such a condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem of display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning." Owwwwcchh. In response, the House Republicans are calling for tat* flags to be kept alive via a feeding tube. 2."Simpsons, The" (1989) {Treehouse of Horror IX (#10.4)} [Homer is dressed in tat* clothes, and eating beans from a can] 3.English Patient, The (1996) Almásy: Ownership.

They ought to have them, too. When they canceled the project it almost did me in. One day my mind was full to bursting. The next day - nothing. Swept away. But I'll show them. I had a lobotomy in the end. 3.Salem's Lot (1979) (TV) Dr. William 'Bill' Norton: We haven't completed our tests, yet but it could be… and I'm trusting you to keep this to yourself... it could be pern* anemia. |
