Well, the whole audience went blind crazy nuts over that line. That was the funniest picture.

And the first time we went to the outback steakhouse and we unrolled our napkins and my knife was four times the size of the my household steakknife, I burst out laughing and immediately thought of that movie. I never saw such big steakknives in my life.

And oh, that bloomin onion. I never in all my life enjoyed a meal like a did a the Outback Steakhouse. And the steak had 7 different kinds of pepper on it. Alan needed 10 glasses of water and said "we're never coming here again". He's not a fan of pepper.

But now we eat the chicken and the salmon and the mackeral and the salads and no more bloomin onion. (Oh the dipping sauce of that bloomin onion).
I WILL NEVER FORGET THAT MEAL. !!!! It was divine.
