I just read the movie plot and spat out my coffee! I thought you were talking about about the Blues Brother's song.

Can I just say I'm bisexual? They cant reject me from URM recruiting.

 

Personally, I wouldn't, it seems a bit odd unless you can point out who gives you that genetic mark.

Only two sources I trust, Glenn Beck and singing woodland creatures.

I think that was 1962 and prior.
