We watched Citizen Kane in "History of Films" class in college. Unfortunately the class was directly after lunch (read: beer), so I tended to fall asleep a lot LOL. Have to catch that on TCM.

And yes, I know that Rosebud is the sled. ;)


I'm in history of film right now. We watched Citizen Kane a couple weeks ago. I slept through the first 15 minutes so I missed all the childhood scenes of him on the sled.

Actually the part about my dad isn't that far off. He's physically not been able to do much for the past few years (back/leg pain, probably sciatic nerve). We're actually hoping his doctors prescribe surgery for him so he'll quit being a grumpy old lady. We'll know in a few weeks.

He does have a burgundy '77 Corvette that just got rebuilt in the back end (U-joints, brakes, exhaust, bearings, etc.). But according to him, he doesn't want me to have it because he knows I'll attempt to drop in a Ford engine. ;) I think eventually he'll cave in and the car will end up in my possession though. I like it...it's a very different car and although parts are frightfully expensive, I have enjoyed helping him work on it. Just needs a power infusion big time; the stock 170hp L-48 350 is just anemic. Sadly, a Cougar/T-Bird with the stock 150hp SO 5.0 feels faster...

...but again, a crate motor can work wonders in Chevy land. ;)

A friend of mine used to own a silver '77 'vette with t-tops and a four speed. Great car (I love C3 'vettes) but I never got to see how anemic it was because he drove the thing slower than a grandma all the time. I can't even remember breaking 3000 RPMs with the thing.

That is the freaking funniest gif i have seen in a while, i was going to photo shop a Domo-kun eating a corvette but my photo shop skillz are not l33t enough to do so.I also did not want to spend the time looking for a picture of a domo that would be suitable. Oh right click save on that gif.
