Hank Hill would move to Mexico if it were annexed by the country of Texas


JD's Quotes:

Mike Judge vehicle, King of the Hill centers around straight-laced, Texas-based propane proponent, Hank Hill. Hank's discomfort with the mushy stuff leads him to say this to his Mexican co-worker:

Mike Judge as voice of Hank Hill on animated series King of the Hill:

''Mexicans don't talk about their feelings? That's GREAT. So uh,...why'd ya give that up?''

Willie Nelson reflects on medicine, his military career and Texas training in autobiography ''Willie''

JD's quotes:

Willie Nelson in his Autobiography ''Willie'' [with Bud Shrake] touches on the main themes in his life...botany, inhospitable vacation spots and his financial contributions to the community... as well as of course love, music and farming.


Willie writes:


''Look at all the people whose lives were made better by the fact that I didn't care how fast I spent money.''


''I appreciate that the coca leaf grows in the ground, like a medicine.''

''The air force took my stripe away after one day.''






''The first thing a man in Texas was trained to do was to find the guy his wife was running around with and kill him.''

''I hobbled before the judge on crutches. The judge said, ''We're going to release you on the condition that you never come back to the Bahamas again.'' ''


Personally, I wouldn't go anywhere Willie Nelson wasn't invited.



Check out Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings in this charmingly corny music video for the song ''If I can find a clean shirt'':

Harland Williams gets multicultural and a little dyslexic

Lucy's quotes:

From Harland Williams' often pleasantly nonsensical stand-up comedy acts(which sometimes result in distracting ethnic runs):

''He was outta there faster than a little Norwegian whale skinner at a Chinese roasted walrus festival.''


''Do ya think dyslexic kids think Fuddruckers is really called MotherF*ckers?''




Here's Harland's Hilarious turn on the improv show ''Thank God You're Here'':



Jimmy Fallon clears up a zoological misnomer

JD's quotes:

This quote is from SNL Weekend Update's former anchor Jimmy Fallon. He may never have been able to keep a straight face but he did care about accuracy when he read the news, doggone it!

''Actually, to be accurate, they only became flying squirrels after the explosion.''




PS: Lucy would like to add that she's the big SNL fan of the two of us, and that it was pure fluke that I'm the one posting this one. You snooze, you lose, Lucy.
