    Last I checked, "Go ahead, make my day" was only 5 words. DISQUALIFIED!!!

    Junior, you make an excellent point. Thanks for catching this error. We've reduced Larry's record from 20 to 19. And my advice to Larry? "Don't mess with the URDB community."

    Well, you're right and wrong. Yes, "go ahead, make my day" is only 5 words, and what Dirty Harry said. But a review of the tape reviews that what I said was, "Go ahead, scumbag, make my day." That's how the quote originates, as said by Gary Swanson in the movie "Vice Squad." Now make mine: beat this record.

    Upon further review, Larry is right. "Scumbag" is a word. Our bad. Immediately reverting Larry's record to 20. Not mathematically inclined, Mr. Daniel Rollman
