    Andy,
    Those are all very notable quotes (sure am glad I’m not in the public’s eye), and I laughed at each one.
    Were we to continue this thread in the flavor you have established for it however, it could quickly get out of hand.
    Have you more quotes to contribute for a balancing of this thread, or will our moderators declare open season?
