Andy's dating Mrs Carlson!

Don't tell anybody!

Andy's not dating Mrs Carlson!

Which one, his wife or his mother?

His mother. What kind of guy do you think I am?

Have you noticed that you can't tell what color someone is over the phone?

I guess not.

That's right! Stereotype thinking! I mean, when I heard Black Life Magazine, I was expecting him to be like "Hey, little momma, you tell the dude I'll be here at fo'." But he didn't. He sounded just like you!

What does she mean "just like me?" I'm black, I'm from the street, I can say "fo'!"

Johnny

That's right, Kingfish. You is, and you does. But the problem is, you sound neutral.

Neutral. You mean 'white.'

Johnny

Well, don't worry, pal. I've heard you say "upside your head," things like that. Don't worry, you can pass for black.

I don't want to "pass for black," I want to be black! What the hell am I saying?

Officials say that this lizard, the worst since '78, has devastated transportation, disrupted communication, and left many hundreds homeless!

Johnny

Monster lizard?

The wire service never lies!

Johnny

Les, the "B" is out on the printer! It's monster blizzard!

View quote →

Les, your stories always seem to have a kind of a, uh... how shall I put this?

Johnny

Barnyard aroma?

You don't like parties? You don't like putting on a silly hat, hiding behind furniture, and generally stripping yourself of every shred of human dignity?

Johnny

Now that you put it that way, I do like that.

Johnny

Travis, you should've heard Bailey with the news. It's the first time it ever made sense.

I like when Les does it. It's always so surreal.

Johnny

Here's how we do it. We go into the supermarket. [to Bailey] You create a ruckus in the produce section. [to Venus] You grab the poster, slip it under your jacket, we're out the door!

What kind of ruckus?

Johnny

I don't know, uh, something with mangoes.

Mangoes?

[entering] Hey, Venus, don't worry about the posters; they'll be out of the supermarkets by tomorrow.

Thank goodness.

Oh, too bad. I was just getting a mental picture of me and those mangoes.

Johnny

Yeah...?
