    I'm hoping this game will be able to go on for a while. The rules are simple. We will start with a quote from a movie, TV show, book, speech, song etc and you will guess who said it. The person that guesses correctly will then get to leave the next quote.

    I realize that google can make this game extremely easy, so please don't "cheat" by just searching for the quote.


    Starting quote

    "Stop whatcha doin' 'cause I'm about to ruin the image and the style that ya used to."

    It is an old TV commercial and while cleaning was involved in the dialog, the product wasn't a cleaning product.

    Yep

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>This commercial was for Calgon water softener.

    A Caucasian woman with an American accent asks "Mr. Lee" (played by Calvin Jung), a laundry shop owner, how he gets her shirts so clean. He replies, with what appears to be a Chinese accent, "Ancient Chinese secret."

    The scene changes to Mrs. Lee, who is in an adjoining room. Mrs. Lee appears ethnically Chinese, but she speaks English with a thoroughly American accent, and explains to the audience that her husband's "ancient Chinese secret" is that he uses Calgon water softener.

    Mrs. Lee ultimately gives the secret away by sticking her head into the front room where Mr. Lee and the customer are standing, and shouts "We need more Calgon!" To which the customer replies "Ancient Chinese secret, huh?"

    The actress playing Mrs. Lee, Anne Miyamoto, was actually Japanese-American.

    Calgon water softener adverts in the United Kingdom, Ireland and in the rest of Europe promote the product solely on the basis of saving washing machines from breakdown rather than any benefits to the clothing in the wash, although the products on sale are identical to those in the United States. In Portugal, the Calgon advertisement jingle is the same popular one, for almost 30 years. In Italy Calgon is called Calfort.</div>
