Just So You Know

She just had to crack the Soylent green jokes!!!

Stasha -- [noun]: A brand of soylent green breakfast cereal 'How" will you be defined in the dictionary?' at QuizGalaxy.com

I got this from Whizgidget's blog. She must have stopped just in time since I ended up as the Soylent green.

In a way this is fitting since we watched 2001:A Space Odyssey with the kids on Sunday and all of a sudden, they have a new source of reference for so many cartoon jokes. Also Sprach Zarathuthstra will never be the same for them though.
The even funnier part was when the next disk we threw in started with the music and the sun rising over the great white dome of Brain's head. DD had to run for the bathroom she was laughing so hard. We got talking about great cartoon moments that referred to the Kubrick movie and the one that everyone remembered was Homer Simpson in space eating potato chips to the sound of a waltz.
Thank goodness George Lucas commissioned original music for the next big Sci-Fi movie to come to the big screen after the Kubrick film.
