- Well, maybe not, but I've always had a favorite in this category:
-
- -----
-
- "...and always remember the last words of my grandfather,
- who said "A truck!"..."
- - Emo Philips
- -----
-
- "What do you do if you step on a mine, Captain?"
-
- "Well, the usual procedure is to leap 200 feet in the air and spread
- yourself over a wide area..."
