I do remember Topo Gigio!  Thanks for that pleasant little memory.  My brothers and I always got to stay up late to watch Ed Sullivan.  Those were the good old days of television, weren't they?

This is not just a quote from Dazed and Confused....this is like Matthew McConaughey's,  signature phrase, kinda like Keanu Reeves "whoa".  He has said this line in multiple movies, but I do agree that the most notorious in Dazed and Confused.

James earl Jones. Hope this don't sound gay, but I remember his character on "sesame street" when I was a kid, and it scared the sh*t right out of me. Since then whenever he speaks, I notice.

It's from a Three Stooges movie, "Gents Without Cents" made in 1944. Curly says \n"Niagra Falls" and Moe (who was under some sort of post-hypnotic suggestion? I don't \nremember) turns on him and launches into the speech. (I dunno. Seemed funny when I was \na kid.) See www.imdb.com for good sources of movie quotes, trivia, etc.\n\n: : This was also from an Abbott and Costello movie entitled "Lost in A Harem".\n: : Many of Bud and Lou's best-known routines were vaudeville and/or burlesque \nstandards. The "Niagara Falls" bit ("Slowly I turned, step by step, inch by inch...I \ntook my revenge.") was performed by many teams before becoming identified with Abbott \n& Costello.
