    Mel Brooks' History of the World: Part I.

    This was a lovely movie, but I don't think I will believe that the Romans would pass out if they smoked a little pot. They were a hearty group, those Romans. They could take whatever mind-altering substances that came their way. Wine, gases, whatever else they happened to scrape up off the ground and eat.

    I do like the quotes from that movie though.

    Judas: No. No. Leave us alone!
    Comicus: All right, all right! Jesus!
    Jesus: Yes.
    Comicus: What?
    Jesus: What?
    Comicus: What?
    Jesus: Yes.
    Comicus: Jesus!
    Jesus: Yes.
    Comicus: What?
    Jesus: What?
    Comicus: You said what.
    Jesus: Yes.
    Comicus: Nothing.
