year old asked what was the most famous phrase in history. \u00a0Not in movies (that\u2019s easy, GWTW\u2019s famous line). \u00a0But of all time. \u00a0Wow, how to you categorize that? \u00a0We threw some\u00a0ideas out: \u2018Let there be light\u2026\u2019, \u2018In the beginning\u2026\u2019, \u2018Blessed are the poor..\u2019, \u2018To be or not to be\u2026\u2019, \u2018Do unto others\u2026\u2019. \u00a0All of them coming from our own cultural heritage of course. \u00a0But it\u2019s quite the tall order if you think about it. \u00a0So we kept on throwing out our own ideas until, right along with the string of\u00a0opinions,\u00a0 my 14 year old chimed in with his contribution: \u2018Would you like fries with that?\u2019 \u00a0After the laugh, I had to admit he\u2019s probably right. \u00a0What is a modern phrase or rallying cry that no doubt will make it into the annals of history? <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So last
