Why didn't you tell me? / Dave: Why else? Because I'm a moron... / Blue: Is THAT your excuse? / Dave: It's no excuse. I just forgot. So uh, punch me in the gut and let's get done with it... / Blue: Try again. / Dave: I, uh, I... don't know, it's just one catastrophe after another, and I'm having a hard time even keeping TRACK of it all. / Blue: Well, see, that works for me. / <> / Dave: And my brain just... huh? / Blue: I have to run, but I'll ask Thadeus to check on you.

It's between your legs... / Mike: [[through phone]] Just grab it already! Or should I do it myself? / Roger: [[through phone]] NO! Aw, man, can't we just stop??? / Mike: [[through phone]] We can't stop now, we're almost there!!! / Roger: [[through phone]] *whimper*
