*At the butcher shop:* BRIT -- Cutlets AMER -- Chops ...In his autobiography, George Burns relates that he and Gracie Allen had a routine in their act that used repeated references to "lamb chops" as laugh lines. Touring England, they took a friend's advice and changed the wording to "lamb cutlets", so the new audience would understand them. -

Thanks, phroso. The "talking mule" bit brought it home. New one: An ambulance crew respond to a distress call, go to the right address. One EMS man goes to the door and knocks. It is answered by a strung-out young woman, holding a shotgun, who demands drugs. The man is well into his explanation that they do not carry drugs in the EMS units, when she exclames, "Liar!" and blows him away. Film?
