Though it comes with a disclaimer -- busy week fighting snowstorms, getting Co-Vid shots, etc. But if all goes well:

Las Vegas oddsmakers have borrowed a quote from THE MALTESE FALCON'S 'Sam Spade' in assessing Spiderwort's chances of a fourth consecutive victory in tomorrow's Contest:
"Six-Two-and-Even they're selling ya out, Sonny!"
Other Players odds on the big Tote Board:
Kijii at 20 to 1
Jervis at 50 to 1
Isapop at 80 to 1

Maltese Falcon is just loaded with quotes I am always trying to work into the conversation. The trouble is tge best ones are Sam’s remarks to pe, or about people he despises, so if I do manage to work them in, the other person tends to walk away.

I tried a few combinations, but non of them worked. What interested me was that someone played a Swedish Ambassador, but I would never had guessed Orson Welles, well the real Raoul Nordling had a rather round body too.   |
