    So their way of determining who’s a ‘likely voter’ consists of two questions:
    “Are you going to vote?”
    “Really?”

    If you don’t mind, how’d you answer the “equal time for McCain” question?
    I’m certain I wouldn’t know how you’d respond to any of those other questions. :p

    I once got a robocall and was feeling pleasant so I played along. After some product type questions (do you use lemon pledge? How likely are you to use lemon pledge in the future) they asked me about Oscar hosts.
    I can’t remember who all the choices were but I thought that was pretty cool.

    Isn’t a “robo-poll” that device Clooney built in Burn After Reading?…

    Don’s robocall didn’t sound as cool as this classic from Cali.

“One of the things I wish I could do in my life would be to watch this film through somebody else’s eyes. I just can’t. I still see it as just a giant mess, and other people are seeing that it has a shape. That’s really exciting, because I still have a hard time seeing it clearly.”
~ Sarah Polley’s Greatest Wish About Stories We Tell

“Anyway, Hitchcock eventually saw a rough cut of High Anxiety. He enjoyed it. But he said nothing after it. He just left. I [thought he] wasn’t happy. The next day, about 11 o’clock in the morning, I get this enormous, beautiful case of Chateau Haut-Brion 1961. That was almost 20 years old [at the time]. I mean, it was priceless. And there were magnums six of them, in a wooden case. Haut-Brion. I mean, oh my God. I’ve still got three of them left waiting. I keep all the good wines.”
What kind of occasion is worthy? When will you know it’s time to go into number four?
“A real, real occasion. I won’t drink it just because it’s a family occasion. I’ll drink it with guys that know what a good wine is and care about, you know, exquisite wines. I have a couple of friends that know what a good wine is.”
~ Mel Brooks, Foodie
