Fun Stuff

Quotes:

Scott Carpenter: I know I should've told you sooner, but Pete's been stealing from your store. He had the nerve to tell me that you owed it to him for all the stuff's he done for you.
Mr. Graff, the store manager: I thank you, Scott, for telling me. You're right, you should've me sooner, but if it makes you feel any better, I already knew.
Scott Carpenter: You did? Why didn't you do anything about it?
Mr. Graff, the store manager: I did. I thought about it, and I decided that a little love and patience was worth more than a few pennies.
Scott Carpenter: But you shouldn't let him steal from you.
Mr. Graff, the store manager: You're right. You're absolutely right. So from on, I'm just going to give him the treats, in appreciation of all the help he's given me. Then he won't be stealing.

Great Morals, 11 July 2004

This movie is actually a very good movie if you have kids and you want them to learn good morals.There are actually other races in this movie, and the reason that he changes his name to a Hispanic name is because of the fact that it was his deceased mothers name.In comment to the complaint about how there are no homosexuals,African-Americans,etc. in this movie, maybe for once that is okay in.Movies do not have to be disgusting and morally wrong to be good.I love this movie because it is so wholesome and it makes me wish that there were more people like this in the world today.Obviously people who are disgusted by this film need to learn some morals of their own.I suggest watching the Buttercream Gang again and actually paying attention.
