    "You take moose, I'll take squirrel."

    Hey, watch what you say about moose! That hits a little too close to home!

    My favorite quotation is from my high school geometry teacher who was trying to teach us how to factor quadratic equations:

    "When in doubt, take something out."

    Actually, my favorite quotation of all time is from Shakespeare's Macbeth:

    "Will all great Neptune's ocean wash this blood
    Clean from my hand? No; this my hand will rather
    The multitudinous seas incarnadine,
    Making the green one red."

    Macbeth Act 2, scene 2, 54–60

    Why do those whose best meal is fast food chose to comment about 4 star dining. It is pointless. They will never get it. I would bet that for most of them that listening to music is the 2nd or 3rd thing they are doing...not the first.
