Reply #1: Phil Marlowe?!? [View All]

[markbark]

Quoth the poster:
The nation now uses cards to subscribe to cable TV, pay taxes and hire Phil Marlowe, a 17-year-old in Tyngsboro, Mass., to cart stuff in the back of his Chevy Silverado.

I can see it now... <Fade to moody film noir lighting>

She came up to the window of my Silverado with a pleading look in her eye.
She was a blonde.
The kind of blonde that would make a bishop kick in a stained glass window.
"Please Mr. Marlowe" she gasped. "I NEED you to take this job for me. But only," she paused for a moment, her lip quivering. "Only if you take.........PLASTIC"


.... and I suppose Sam Spade will be delivering groceries soon? :crazy:

then again, in this post-literate world I suppose he doesn't get TOO many comments on his name :(
