Get the Recap mug.A rather poor safety net that is often used by the guilty when they testify before congress. The degree to which the testifier uses this phrase often indicates how much they have to hide. This phrase was recently made famous by Alberto Gonzales when he testified in April of 2007.
Alberto Gonzales used the old "I don't recall" trick 71 times when he testified before congress the other day. That means he's really guilty or really stupid. Most likely both.

Get the Wrong room Recall mug.An action film directed by Paul Furhaven, in which a large, imposing nutsack (Arnold Scrotumsagger) takes a 'vacation' from itself via an implanted memory. Trouble ensues when the big, hairy plum-pod can no longer distinguish between reality and illusion.
"Furhaven's violent, unwavering vision breathes much-needed fresh air into the stale Testicular Dystopia genre. Scrotal Recall is a triumph." -- Ballbag Film Comment, January 2008.
