"Your credentials are impressive, Carter but... quite frankly, Mr. Biggles doesn't seem to like you."

"Sorry, that was just the wet diaper talking."

"My smelly French cheese is much better than your Canadian beef."

"For dessert, absolutely no flambé!"

'I've been depressed ever since PBS said pigs are smarter than dogs!'

"Is anyone enjoying anything?"

'We cut it into teensy-weensy squares.'

"Here's another fine mess you've gotten us into."

'No, there's nothing else: At this time of year, we eat salmon!'

'For once can't we all just sit down and eat as a family?'
