I've got a piece of hard rock candy.

I saw "The Outlaw Josey Wales" as a second feature "sneak preview" after the original "Rocky" movie that I went to see in downtown Washington D.C. As a sneak preview, I had no idea what the movie would be. It turned out to be one of my most memorable movie experiences EVER :) !!
I was 19 visiting Virginia with friends to experience the giant bicentennial celebration in Washington DC. The movie just came out and some guys said how great it was so we went, too. Then my friend and I hitchhiked home to California.
 
Pretty soon we'll have the whole movie, then somebody gets to put them in order.

My brothers and I quote this to each other quite often.

Back before cell phones we were dove hunting on our 2,000 acre lease. We all had the small multichannel radios for when we split up to tell each other where we were and how we were doing. I was hunting with my Dad, who did not know the movie and a late arriving brother announced over the radio "I'm not ur Pa, now shuddup!", as he got to the front gate. We laughed, Dad was very confused.
 
That movie has an incredible number of memorable lines. It's a great film. I often tell my colleagues "endeavor to persevere" when something is screwed up at work. I'm often known to use "I reckon so" a lot also.
