"What kind of idiot would put poison in both cups?"

Posted by Jay Tea

Published: April 24, 2005 - 5:23 AM

I just woke up from a very strange dream. I was watching the "Duel of Wits" scene from "The Princess Bride," but in this version, Jennifer Aniston (as her "Rachel" character from "Friends") was kibitzing over Westley's shoulder during Vizzini's dazzling display of deductive reasoning.

I think I watch too much TV...

Have you seen Desperate Housewives?... The real meaning of your dream could be you might be concerned about Jennifer Anistons decisions lately. Poison in both cups represents either way you injest it it is going to be toxic and possibly deadly!... You might have some decisions in your own life that you are trying to make!... Sorry! I love dreams...I use to have dreams about Tom Brokaw for some reason!...

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders, the most famous of which is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia", but only slightly less well known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian, when death is on the line.". Hahahahahah! Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha! Hahahaha-- *thump*
