Submit a favorite monologue from a movie with every third word removed.
The movie that I chose this monologue from is titled Rounders, starring Matt Damon, John Malkovic and Edward Norton. It is as movie about a law school student (Matt Damon) who makes his living on the side playing poker. Because I have a mathematics background I can see the probability, variance and the strategy that is involved in the game. Here is the opening monologue from the movie Rounders. This exercise of removing just every third word makes understanding things very difficult.
