Rickybulldog, Yes! Gangsta!! Love those, man. :P Another movie I left out is Pulp Fiction. Better Off Dead is a funny movie. Of course my favorite part is when John Cusack was being chased by some Gangsta kids on bicycles trying to collect the newspaper money.

Greg, Portillo's is a restaurant chain in the Chicagoland. They're everywhere around here. They even have a couple of restaurants in SoCal. I believe they even do their menu by mail. You can check online!

Thanks for the tip, Joel! I'm going to have them send me a 10 pack of their Chicago dogs. Hope I can refrain from hugging the mailman when he brings 'em! :D

top five.... or I mean my better half top five! Right?

Postby MTGLOVEGUY » July 10th, 2009, 1:19 pm

Thanks Joel! Kleenex is always on the coffee table!
I can only defend myself by saying that the other half has watched it so many times that they both have grown on me. Outside of that ,and from here on out, I plead the fifth!

BJ, BJ, BJ. Tell 'em it's cool for a grown man to be in touch with his sensitive side. You keep on telling 'em. Maybe we'll all believe it someday :lol:

BJ - Sorry, no help here. I gave my wife such a hard time about watching GA that she stopped watching it. :lol:

Mr. Mitt - some great movie choices - love Caddyshack and the Mel Brooks stuff, but my favorite MB production would be Spaceballs. :D

Glad to see some love for the Simpsons - it's only the greatest show ever!

It really is hysterical. A little crude, but hysterical.
