"If you don't respect yourself no body gonna give a hoop-de-hoop*"


Bruce Willis "Respect Yourself" (off the Return of Bruno LP?)



I know that's not what they say, but I'm supposed to be doing other things so I ain't looking it up... reminds me of my sister singing Kenny Loggins** -- "I'm all right, don't nobody butterfly me"

"They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown."
