Lawrence of Arabia (quote only) Auda: They pay me, month by month, one hundred golden guineas. Lawrence: One hundred and fifty. A hundred; a hundred and fifty; what matters? It's a trifle...a trifle which they take from a great box they have... Ali: In Aqaba |

Dracula: What you get depends on which box. A concert hall box: some nice young people.  A cigarette box: an unwelcome mirror.  Another kind of box: one of the Count's "little helpers."  Or the Count himself.  Or even a rat...along with what's left of a hand with an unusual number of fingers, or an extremely long thumb.  Why, they had so many boxes, they even deleted a scene full of 'em.  And that, finally, closes the Dracula boxes subject.

That possum is like “man, did I crawl into the wrong box”...speaking of which: Well, rats! That is a possum, isn't it? I must have gone momentarily...  I may mistake a marsupial for a rodent, but never let it be said I'm possumonious when it comes to gratitude, so my sincere thanks, paulslaugh (and I'll forgo any anemic excuses like being dead on my feet this morning).

How about some Bachs? That pun only works for Americans, who, to English ears, pronounce "box" more like "barks".
