Got a couple minutes?
Posted by Kate on Sunday, September 19, 2004Hello All,
Pat was going to post a poll so we could all vote on the crab names, but we had some technical difficulties. So we had an in-house Rockland vote instead. The winning names are:
"Side Dish" (with two cat votes) submitted by Pete aka BSP
"Mr. Crab From Sponge Bob" submitted by Jay and Erin of the Alley
"Chicken" (because naming animals after other animals is fun) inspired by Dennis of Whole Nother Studio
In other AveNews, I was reading Simpsons quotes from the site Pat linked to earlier this week. I think my new favorite character is the Sea Captain, "McAllister." I was reading Pat the quotes and we were laughing so hard. I guess it helps if you have seen the episodes, but we were dying.
The Sea Cap'n's Bait 'n' Baro'n B'n
McAllister: "Arr, I've got some customers, call me back Ishmael. Ahoy there minnows."
Bart: "Have you seen this man?" (shows him a Krusty balloon)
McAllister: "Arr, that's Handsome Pete, he dances for nickels. Pete, ye got some customers."
(a short guy with a Krusty-like face bursts in and plays "Sailor's Hornpipe" on an accordian.)
Lisa: "No, we're looking for this man (inflates the balloon a bit more), Krusty the Clown."
McAllister: "Narr, Narr, Narr."
(Bart throws a quarter in Handsome Pete's cup)
McAllister: "Not a quarter. Arr, he'll be dancin' for hours."
Charity Bachelor Auction reject
Krusty: "Come on! He likes sunsets, what more do you want?"
McAllister: "Arr, I'm not attractive."
Precious booty
McAllister: "Arr, matee, narry a warning light to be seen. Clear
sailin' ahead for our precious cargo."
Sailor: "Uh, would that be the hot pants, sir?"
McAllister: "Aye, the hot pants."
At the beach with Homer's cowardly lobster
McAllister: "Yarr, it's not his fault he's a sissy. Someone's been coddling him."
Marge: "Don't look at me! I wanted to eat him!"
McAllister: "Eh, sorry, it's usually the mother. Eh, you know I run a small academy for lobsters like this one. We stress tough love, daily chores, and the like."
Marge: "No! We're not sending the lobster away to some snobby boarding school."
McAllister: "Yarr, I understand. It's hard to let go. Tell me this then, do you have any spare change?"
So funny, but then again you can't forget Groundskeeper Willy's retirement grease... Maybe I can't pick a favorite character... I love the Simpsons....
