Caddyshack

Hello Everybody!

"Alright, place your bets, place your bets, here we are".

I know this is probably way off course right now, but I'd like to know how y'all feel about Caddyshack.

I have copies of it on VHS & on DVD, and watch it every so often. With that comes therapy, in the sense that it makes me laugh every time...and laughter is sometimes considered the best medicine, when you need some cheering up to feel better.

The film is over 25 years old, and the comedy genius of the late-great Rodney Dangerfield is classic; and will & shall be enjoyed forever.

I'll finish my thread topic with two of my favorite lines: "...fifty bucks the Smails' kid picks his nose...", and a Rodney classic, "...another round for our table over here, and tell the cook this is low grade dog food...".

For those who haven't seen Caddyshack, it's a must-see classic.

Take care my friends.

"So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on
as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a
caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you
think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama.
The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee
with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big
hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the
base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga...
gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff
me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know,
for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any
money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total
consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice. "

Incredible Cinderella story. This unknown, comes out of nowhere, to lead the pack ... at Augusta. He's at his final hole. He's about 455 yards away, he's gonna hit about a 2 iron I think. [swings, pulverizes a flower] Oh, he got all of that. The crowd is standing on its feet here at Augusta. The normally reserved Augusta crowd, going wild ... [pauses] for this young Cinderella who's come out of nowhere. He's got about 350 yards left, he's going to hit about a 5 iron it looks like, don't you think? He's got a beautiful backswing ... [swings, pulverizes another flower] That's ... Oh, he got all of that one! He's gotta be pleased with that! The crowd is just on its feet here. He's a Cinderella boy. Tears in his eyes, I guess, as he lines up this last shot. He's got about 195 yards left, and he's got a, looks like he's got about an 8 iron. This crowd has gone deadly silent ... Cinderella story, out of nowhere, former greenskeeper, now, about to become the Masters Champion. [swings, pulverizes yet another flower] It looks like a mirac- It's in the hole! It's in the hole! Former greenskeeper, now Masters champion!

I felt the movie was in bad taste. It was very discriminatory against White Anglo-Saxon Protestants who happen to work hard and are able to afford membership at racial and religiously restricted Country Clubs.

Great movie!

Fore!

Fine shot.

I should have yelled two!
                 
Why don't we walk this off, sir?
                 
What have you got in here, rocks?
                 
Are you kidding? When I was your age...

...l would lug    pounds of ice up five,
six flights of stairs!

So what?
                 
So let's dance!
               
Now, what the devil?
                 
The man is a menace!
                 
Cut that off!
                 
Music is a violation of our personal
privacy! He's breaking the law!

I've always been fascinated
with the law, sir.

Really? What areas?
                 
All areas. Personal privacy,
noise statutes....
                 
I'd planned to go to law school
after I graduated, but...
                 
...my folks won't have enough money
to put me through college.

The world needs ditchdiggers, too.

I appreciate Ty's (Chevy Chase) Zen approach to golf. It works for bowling, too. "Be the ball."

Hey, Bigfoot, don't trip in the water!
                 
That's it!
               
You put your suit on!
               
You shave your ass!
               
Hi, Maggie. How was it?
               
How was what?
               
I guess it couldn't have been
that great, then.
               
A lot you f***ing know, D'Annunzio!
               
All right. Stand up!
               
All right! Okay!
               
She's incredible!
               
Hi, Mama.
               
Hey, you guys, cool it!
               
I mean it!
               
Want some?
               
Give me some.
               
Who asked you?
             
Come on! I'm asking.
               
Hey, thanks a lot!
               
Stop that, you two! All of you!
               
I want you out of that pool at once!
               
I don't want to see another caddy body
in this pool!
               
Did you understand what I said? Out!
               
Take your hands off her, young man!
               
Put your clothes back on!
               
Out! Didn't you hear me?
               
Doodie!
               
Don't touch it!
             
Spaulding! No!
             
Doodie!
             
If you find anything
that doesn't look like it....
               
I want the entire pool scrubbed,
sterilized and disinfected!
               
There it is!
               
It's no big deal!
