    Once the subject came up of what could a "MAGGET" charge for sex. Fifty cents = 1/2and a quarter only = 1/4, though a nickel, "There" was something about the word NICKEL "/
    "I, the undersigned,
    shall forfeit all rights, privileges, and licenses herein
    and herein contained, et cetera, et cetera . . . fax mentis
    incendium gloria culpum, et cetera, et cetera . . . memo bis
    punitor delicatum!" It's all there, black and white, clear
    as crystal! You stole Fizzy Lifting Drinks. You bumped
    into the ceiling which now has to be washed and sterilized,
    so you get nothing! You lose! Good day, sir!

    Just reminded of this, since Taxi Driver has been on my flat screen recently. I just want to know the source of all this, if anybody can remember. I drove a cab in NYC just a few years after Travis, and I may have sat in the same seat that question was asked at the old Bellmore. I find it weird that such a detached, unconnected upper middle class forum would use that as a password, of sorts. What's up with that?

    Heh. I was trying to post the taxi driver video in the other thread.

    And this was the first web link in my failed search.

    We corrupted the interwebs
