[For the first, ask Ibix (his is based on the movie "Taken", and the "famous" words of Liam Neeson ...) - I just gave the standard reply in the movie - if you haven't seen it I recommend it]
Ah. I've seen it. I get it now but the reference is too subtle and obscure. Also, you were yelling and as I recall he was closer to whispering.

It wasn't yelling. It was a manner of emphasis (+the guy was being ironic etc.). If you had seen the whole movie you would realize that these ONLY words of his were very cricial in finding and punishing the guy! ...
[I even thought though earlier about editing the capitals myself, and I will (to bold) just now, since you mentioned it. Thanks for pointing out. Cheers]

I wasn't deliberately referencing Taken. I probably did echo Neeson's "I will find you, and I will kill you" speech, because I needed something fairly bombastic for the "you have my word" line to fit, but it was unintentional and incidental to the word/Word punchline.

I figured that could have been the case ... but it makes it a double joke then anyway.

"We've been 3 weeks now inside with our parents! ... They seem Nice People! ..."
