Larry Flynt is right!
Uh, I mean, Claire Z is right. "The baby looked at you?" Chief Wiggum is one of the funniest characters on one of the funniest TV shows of all time.

Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine. I guess that's why several of us died of tuberculosis.

A certain soft drink has been found to be lethal… we'll tell you which one after weather and sports.

Interesting point about Seinfeld. I've noticed for myself that while I loved the show when it was on, I no longer enjoy the reruns very much, and have sometimes wondered why that is.

I hope the course really was called "Human Fucking Sexuality".

I thought they drank vodka until the room did the spinning.

I firstied your mother last night, Trebek!

This reminds me of the time I lost all my money to some card sharks and then my dad Tom Bosley had to get it back.

If life gives you onions, make onion rings.

It's like Reggie Dwight says, "Sad songs say so much."
