Manic Monday - Candy



Mo gave me this idea: Candy gram for Mongo! Straight out of the infamous movie (and one of my very favorites!), "Blazing Saddles." Alex Karas, former footballer, played the roll of Mongo.
Here's the part of the script referring to the candy gram:

[while Mongo is beating the hell out of a bar full of toughs, Bart walks in, dressed as a messenger boy and carrying a box]
Bart: Candygram for Mongo! Candygram for Mongo!
Mongo: Me Mongo.
Bart: Sign, please.
[Mongo grabs the paper and makes some rough scratches on it]
Bart: Thank you.
[He gives Mongo the box and walks out of the bar, putting his fingers in his ears]
Mongo: Mongo like candy.
[he opens the box - BOOM!]
