Lorelai Quote #2215
Quote from Lorelai in A Vineyard Valentine
Lorelai: Ooh, and here, of course, is the big-time Martha's vineyard thing, whaling.
Luke: They have whaling?
Lorelai: Not anymore. It's just a fun fact. "Martha's Vineyard was one of the world's largest whaling ports." Says here people used every part of the whale back then, the most important being spermaceti, used in candle production. Yuck, couldn't think up a less gross substance to use for candles?
Luke: You know, it's a good thing I don't drive a compact.
Lorelai: Herman Melville once shipped out of Martha's Vineyard. Here's a quote from Moby Dick. "Oars, oars, grip your oars, and clutch your souls now. My god, pull, men!" Wait a second. That isn't the pulling they had to do to get the spermaceti, is it?
Luke: I don't think so.

Luke: It's a bowie knife to cut fish, cut tree limbs...
Lorelai: Amputate a leg?
Luke: Not a leg. It could do a foot.

Quote from Sookie
Sookie: I'm experimenting for the prefix menu for Valentine's day next week, trying to come up with something new, but there's nothing new under the sun. I mean, who else would think to serve oysters on Valentine's Day? Hmm, I don't know, maybe 12,000 other establishments within spitting distance!
Lorelai: Well, lovers love oysters. I don't. I love burritos. But people don't want burritos on Valentine's Day.
Sookie: But how do we know unless we give them the option, huh? That's it, I'll serve burritos.
Lorelai: Sookie, no.
Sookie: But no one else will have burritos.
Lorelai: Sookie, you can't serve Valentine's day burritos. That's flirting with disaster. We could be talking the octopus-ice-cream disaster of '98.
Sookie: Oh, God, you're right. I'll figure it out. I'm just hitting an oyster wall here.
