Two Scotsmen fighting over a penny..... i like the one about a scotsman who dropped a dime in the toilet, he quickly took out a quarter and threw it in. when ask why he did that, he said, you don’t think i’ld put my hand down there for just a dime? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve posted this link before, but check this little heralded battle in WWII: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_for_Castle_Itter I’m posting link again because I think people should know about this. I said then, I’m shocked Hollywood hasn’t made a movie about it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says down near the bottom that a movie is planned: Quote A movie of the incident, titled The Last Battle and directed by Peter Landesman, is planned for development by Studiocanal. A release date has not yet been confirmed.[42][43] The movie is a film adaptation of Stephen Harding's book of the same name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
