So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
i think bill murray's gotten funnier in recent years because he's altered his delivery/types of roles he takes just a tiny bit with great effect. he used to be just kinda the wacky crazy funny guy, but a lot of the characters he's played in recent vintage are ones where he gets to channel a lot of angst towards a comedic bent.

without a doubt the greatest cinematic monologue of all time. What makes it really great is that the whole time he's speaking he's got that pitchfork stuck to the caddy's neck. Awesome.

I choked like 3 times just reading that monologue. Funniest fucking thing ever. I use the last line in every situation possible.

Bill Murray calls Kelly Lynch's husband every time sex scene from 'Road House' airs Last Updated: 10:46 AM, October 17, 2012
The 1989 action hit "Road House" still makes the rounds on TV quite often, be it on AMC or one of the premium cable channels.
And that is bad news for one of the movie’s stars, Kelly Lynch, and worse news for her husband, writer and producer Mitch Glazer. Lynch, who played the love interest of Patrick Swayze in the film, revealed that every time the movie pops up on cable that Bill Murray or one of his brothers calls Glazer.
"By the way, speaking of Bill Murray, every time "Road House" is on and he or one of his idiot brothers are watching TV— and they’re always watching TV — one of them calls my husband and says [In a reasonable approximation of Carl Spackler (Murray’s character in "Caddyshack")], ‘Kelly’s having sex with Patrick Swayze right now. They’re doing it. He’s throwing her against the rocks,’" Lynch said in an interview with AVClub.com to promote her Starz show "Magic City."
At this point in the AV Club interview, Glazer overhears what Lynch is talking about and relays a story to his wife.
"Mitch was just walking out the door to the set, and he said that Bill once called him from Russia," Lynch, 54, said.
Fortunately for Lynch and Glazer, "Road House" is not set to air in the next couple of weeks according to TVGuide.com. But it will return to the listings soon.
"I dread it. If I know it’s coming on—and I can tell when it’s coming on, because it blows up on Twitter when it is—I’m just like, "Oh, my God…" And God help me when AMC’s doing their Road House marathon, because I know the phone is just going to keep ringing. It doesn’t matter if it’s 2 or 3 in morning. "Hi, Kelly’s having sex with Patrick Swayze right now…" Lynch said.
