The Princess Bride, by S. Morgenstern

Remember the scene from Miracle Max's house? I keep thinking about Mrs. Miracle (Valerie) saying "Humperdinck" repeatedly in a sing-song voice.

Now it's your turn. Imagine Doug and me walking down an unfamiliar airport, looking for the unannounced terminal that held our flight's luggage. Now imagine really awesome LCD screens (without frames...so cool) that display their advertisements and have eye-popping colors to grab one's attention. The one that grabbed my attention was this.

"Enjoy a Wild night with ... Engelbert Humperdinck"

Oh, man.

Who is that anyway???

He's the man with a name worth a million words. Or one short blog related to a cult classic.
