1. "You cheat, you're out" too simple for the eggheads.
2. Sin City, huh?
3. Unless she's Freddy Krueger, stop whining.
4. In South Bend, huh? Call it the Charlie Weis Effect.
5. Wikipedia Foundation motto: You tell us how much money we have.
6. John Edwards patted the kid on the head, and she could walk!
7. As long as the pizza doesn't taste like Natty Bo.

3. She should have used her finger on his dick. Least it would sound half sensible.
4. Lookin' at some parents around here I'd sympathise if any kids smoked a spliff. Any escape from this shit has got to be worth it.
5. I've popped over accidently a few times. Do accidental hits count?
6. 'All Fall Down' is an old kids rhyme isn't it?
7. I'm there. Where is it selling?
