Hi petew,
I see Casablanca' status is similar to one of "Diamond Hand"
in Russia. "Flowers for kids, icecream for woman". And probably
DH is as "easy" to find in Philly as Casablanca in Moscow...
Darn, I'm a card-carrying member of three rentals, each claiming
to have 3000 to 4000 films available. Two of these never had it,
third had some time ago, but it was stolen. Well well well, I went
to shops trying to buy it... nothing in there...Also thank you for revealing the true origin of an old (soviet
times) anecdote. I thought it was Russian. Conversation in London:
- Which watch?
- Ten watch.
- Such much?
- To whom how...
- MGIMO?
- Don't say, don't say...MGIMO is a diplomatic college in Moscow fyi.
regards, gnat
