Help! Medic!

I think I ruptured something reading the Foreign Minister's diatribe. My wife and I were rolling on the floor.

My wife reminded me of another favorite movie - Army of Darkness. This also should be on my list, but I don't know which of the others to bump.

The only reason Highlander is absent is because, while the movie is tremendously fun, the lead is perhaps the worst actor alive.

Is the correct spelling gyp or gip? I used the latter in my post but think the Foreign Minister may be correct.

Update: The Maximum Leader believes "gyp" is correct. And checking in his trusty OED, it would appear that "gyp" is correct. The eytomology indicates that the word is derived from "gypsy" and means a fraud or swindle.
