Lol. Hanna Barbera is a goldmine for parody (c.f. Birdman 2003).

I'd love to see the complete cartoon, does Video Dogs have any copies of Happy Tree Friends and Friends?

I thought we did, but just checked the site and nothing doing!
Still, I've got all three seasons of Harvey Birdman on DVD at home if you ever want to have them for a bit.

^^Thanks for the offer David but my librarian says she can get happy Tree Friends in for me, I'll just need to wait a few weeks.
Is/does Video Dogs have an online catalogue that I can look through to see what I want to hire?
Bergman's 7th Seal is a film I'd like to see again but isn't available in the library back catalogue.

but no, a message, "Hi Rita, been a while, give me a ring, we should get together, David."

the previous owner was Jenny, my in dash phone thingy told me the first time i connected it! and she didnt live around here, anyway!!
i dont know anyone called Rita.
i dont know anyone called David!
(not personally i mean David!!)
so, should i send a funny text from a blocked phone? its very tempting!!

Try using more polite language. In any case, How didn't she live here?

Yep! Here you go:

I love
The Seventh Seal . It's one Bergman film that I haven't seen in a while, but it always makes me happy to see it in the shop (along with all his other stuff!).

Something like "Hi David, I got your card in my window frame. My name's not Rita, but if you're cute you can call me whatever you like"
You could add to that "For $350 per hour, you don't have to be cute"
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I'd say you've found yourself in the midst of a case of mistaken car identity. Hope you didn't drive somebody else's car home!

It means put the drugs in the third rubbish bin from the left, subtract 5 from the second digit of the number on the card and call it from a pay phone. Let it ring twice, hang up, call back and ask for Stan. Write your bank account number on a betting slip and hand it over the counter after the fourth race at Flemington next week. Check the car for explosives before you drive off and don't wink at the waiter.

As a long time resident of StKilda I can reliable tell you drug addicts aren't that good at following instructions.
