Ha. Actually, when I originally typed that I thought about making it right but then realized I just didn't care enough. Besides, the film itself gets it wrong, so please consider my version an intended satire.
As for the serial comma: I prefer them and am annoyed when they are missing. I think their use promotes clarity as well as parallelism. _________________ "When I was in Barcelona they showed pornography on regular television.

Oh, wait, you're telling Beltmann that you and I agree? ![Confused](images/smiles/icon_confused.gif) _________________ Michael Scrutchin

Ahem. Previous page, dude.
Netflix doesn't stock it, though, so I still haven't seen it. _________________ Michael Scrutchin

I've been looking for it at various retail outlets, with zero luck. (I've been resisting the Amazon route until the used copies are a little cheaper.) _________________ "When I was in Barcelona they showed pornography on regular television.
