I believe that phrase is contained in the movie <i>The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly<\/i> which I think I saw once, but all I remember is a gallows sitting in the middle of a parched desert.  Very surreal.  And I might be totally making that up since I can&#8217;t find confirmation anywhere.  But I always think this phrase has something to do with <i>It&#8217;s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World<\/i>, maybe because of the big W contained in that movie.  But enough about W.<br \/>\nHad planned to talk about my upcoming trip, but first another movie digression.  I watched <i>Adam&#8217;s Rib<\/i> last night, and enjoyed it.  I thought the couple&#8217;s relationship and the problems they experienced were quite believable.  Couple of time-period related things: At the beginning of the movie, when various female characters were applauding a woman&#8217;s decision to shoot her unfaithful husband, I kept pausing the movie to tell Andy &#8220;See, women are very irrational and emotional, and believe that lashing out violently is an appropriate response.&#8221;   Also, it seems that hitting one&#8217;s wife wasn&#8217;t illegal in 1949.  Icky.<br \/>\nOkay, back to the impending journey.  There&#8217;s really nothing to say about a trip that hasn&#8217;t happened yet, is there, since by definition nothing has happened yet.  So scratch that.  Except one interesting thing I&#8217;ve noted is that people start asking you if you&#8217;re packed yet way early.  If I packed that long before time to go, I&#8217;d just have to unpack everything again so I can use it.  So no, I&#8217;m not packed yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The title is kind of a stretch&#8211;was trying to think of a title relating to travel which started with a W, and this was the first thing I thought of.
