Quote from Sam in Where There's a Will

Diane: How are you going to explain your new-found riches to them?
Sam: Give me a little credit here. I'm not going to change my lifestyle all of a sudden. My purchases will be simple. A television, maybe. A pair of shoes. A couple pairs of pants. A trip to the Canaries in my brand new 60-foot yacht.

Sam: "To Whom It May Concern. Please be advised that herewith I amend my will to provide the following... As a token for their kindness, I leave the sum of $100,000 to the gang at Cheers, signed Malcolm Kramer."
Norm: Is this a joke?
