They don't ask you to wash the dishes first at massage parlors."

'I'm terribly worried, Doctor - he doesn't talk back to Bill O'Reilly any more.'

'I'm now going to open the floor to questions.'

"You might want to save that for your blog."

Like Minded

"How do I know God is not real? For the same reason I know people on TV can't see me."

And now, for a rebuttal.
