Catching up (was on holiday), and Megan – totally agree. Yep, I read all the comments and also? Love this site and this blog and will read anything – esp if it isn’t about the economy. =)

One that I always remember is something that was said in real life and is most often misquoted in real life, but the misquote was then popularised by being used in the movie Apollo 13.

The line is usually quoted as ‘Houston, we have a problem’.
Astronaut Jim Lovell actually said ‘Houston, we’ve had a problem’.

Slight difference, yes, but a completely different implication. He said ‘had’ because at that point they thought the damage was only minor and that they’d been able to deal with it.

Guh! Why don’t you bloggers ever realize that “Badges, we don’t need no stinkin’ badges!” comes from Blazing Saddles, a Mel Brookes movie famous for it’s racial insensitivity. Stop with the movie misquote blogs. They’re old and incorrect.

Here… this is much easier.
Go to wikiquote and search for List of misquotations. It will save you some time next go ’round.

Thank you Robert for pointing out what I was going to say. Judging by the rest of the comments that followed yours, not many people paid attention to what you wrote. But I did! Original source material is what matters here, people, not parodies!
