[Nfbf-l] crazy eighty's trivia question #6

[Dan Hicks]

I guessed high -- and it was a guess. I remembered the line in "Hardware
Wars" -- a great spoof movie trailer that makes fun of "Star Wars" -- that
says, "You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll kiss three bucks goodbye." That
little movie is from (I think) 1977, so I figured with inflation...

By the way, if you want to see this classic little 13-minute movie, go to:

Even if you can only hear it, it is worth checking out.
