I've always been curious as to what the conversation in the movie "Tombstone" between Kilmer and whoever the Ringo character was translates into in laymens lingo?

Oh sure. Now you're going to make me got rent it and look for that scene.

Probably something like "Who's your huckleberry?" [:D]

Loosely translated

Doc Holliday- Alcohol loosens the tounge.

Ringo- Watch what you're doing/saying.

Holliday- Tell that to the marines, don't tell it to me. (I think this is right, if not it's close)

Ringo- Fools must learn by experience.

Holliday- Rest in peace.

If catapults were outlawed, then only outlaws would have catapults. [:)]

It's the theory of quantum mechanics

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck
                                                       could chuck wood?

Catapultam habeo.  Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis,
ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam.

or I will fling an enormous rock at your head.")
