LIST OF 4 BEST THINGS IN THE WORLD THIS WEEKEND =============================================== He was waiting for an airplane at Chicago O'Hare airport and was sitting in one of the endless rows of chairs in the departure lounge for American. As he was laying back, he kinda let his eyes go out of focus when he noticed that sitting about 15 rows away, facing him and staring him right in the eye, was Bill Murray. He quickly looked around to see if anyone else noticed that he and Bill Murray were having a silent staring contest, and as he looked back, Bill Murray just grinned and shrugged. They didn't say anything to each other, and after a while, Bill got up and started walking towards him, presumably to catch the flight he was waiting for. As he passed the guy, Bill Murray stopped, leaned down, and whispered in his ear: "No one is ever going to believe you." // I was in a local healthy/expensive type supermarket here in Santa Barbara CA (we have a lot of those) and I'm in line to buy some ham at the deli there. The lady asked me what kind, and I said "I have no fucking idea what different kinds of ham there are lady" ENTIRELY to loudly and the guy behind me in line I hadn't noticed burst the hell up laughing. I turn around. Steve Martin. He kinda half leans around me and says "Honey glazed!" to the lady over the counter and I just kinda stare at him for a sec then smile and say thanks. I'm about to pay for it and he says "No way this one's on me" and pays the chick for it right there. I was astounded, it was so awesome that I did the only thing I could think of ... The Three Amegios salute. Once again he cracks up and asked me if I had any idea how long it had been since someone did that. I said "a year?" he said "try ten". We ended up having coffee at a place across the street. Turns out he bought a house in Monticeto, a really expensive residensial area in SB, and has been living here a while. We talked about everything that wasn't his career for about 45 miniutes before he had to take off because his deli stuff was gonna go bad. I shook his hand and said he made my year today. He smiled and beat my head in with a tire iron. I looked up from the floor, my eyes covered in my own blood as I made out a blury image of an anvil being hoisted above his head. Through the ringing in my ears I couldn't hear his probably witty parting line before the anvil came crashing down, ending my life. // http://mysterymoviemonday.com/catapult-1.gif [800KB] http://mysterymoviemonday.com/catapult-2.gif [800KB] // -- .Matthew Cruickshank http://holloway.co.nz/
