Yeah. Honest John was giving little boys the card so he could get a buck from Strombolli (or whatever his name was) so that Strombolli could sell the donkeys for a large profit. Jiminy Cricket manages saves Pinnochio at the last moment, though.

I haven't seen the movie in years, so I popped it in and re-watched it. The donkey part still disturbs me. Laughing

u have it?? can u tell me two things... what was jiminys last scene, and what was his last line?? this could be important..


Not so important sidenote -

As for some interesting facts about the ace of spades:

Quote:
The Ace of Spades has been employed, on numerous occasions, in the theatre of war. In the Second World War, the soldiers of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the American 101st Airborne Division were marked with the spades symbol painted on the sides of their helmets. In this capacity, it was used to represent good luck, due to its fortunate connotations in card playing. All four card suits were used for ease of identification of regiments within the airborne division following the confusion of a large scale combat airborne operation. Battalions within the regiments were denoted with tic marks or dots, marked from top clockwise; Headquarters at the twelve o'clock position, 1st Battalion at the three o'clock, et cetera.

Some twenty years later, the Ace of Spades was again used by American soldiers — this time as a psychological weapon in the Vietnam War. US troops erroneously believed that Vietnamese ancient traditions held the symbolism of the spade to mean death and ill-fortune and in a bid to scare away NLF soldiers without firefight, it was common practice to leave an Ace of Spades on the bodies of killed Vietnamese and even to litter the forested grounds and fields with the card. This custom was erroneously believed to be so effective, that the Bicycle Playing Cards company was asked to supply crates of that single card in bulk. The crates were often marked with "Bicycle Secret Weapon".

The Ace of Spades, while not a symbol of superstitious fear to the NLF, did help the morale of American soldiers. It was not unheard of for US soldiers and Marines to stick this card in their helmet band as a sort of anti-peace sign.

More recently, in 2003 a deck of Most-wanted Iraqi playing cards issued to U.S. soldiers during Operation Iraqi Freedom; each card had the picture of a wanted Iraqi official on it. Saddam Hussein got the nickname "Ace of Spades" as his was the face which adorned that card.

 		Ok it wasnt karate. Thanks to smooth for pointing out that cricket was an anagram, duhhh.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

So the anagram is:
Greatest Cricket Player

After Smooth and I tried every cricket player known to man, I checked out Sir Donald Bradman's wiki page. It says his nickname was the don.

 		Nice Job Nicole.

The question remains, what do we do this information?

Do we tell Michael? If anyone is going to, it should be Nicole.. but the question is still IF we should.. right now at least..

I dunno.. on the FET boards (as Nicole just pointed out), TDC specifically asked Michael to ask us about what we know... he wants Michael to know this information, and since Michael doesnt know what that info is, I doubt he will just give up vital information he has been withholding unless he KNOWS its A) worth it and B) legit...

I think we should abide by TDCs wishes and tell Michael...

DO NOT POST IT ON FET THOUGH PEOPLE..

Sam reads those boards, and he shouldnt know what we know. Let Nicole do it through a PM, if she decides to.


remember this?

"I am sure this information will significantly affect how you deal with Sam Deercot during the next part of his story. "

EDIT: Yeah ashley.. he is creepy.. do you really want to know what he hides under his mattress?? prolly snuff tapes.. he seems like the type
