Quote from Tim in Too Many Cooks

Al: OK, well, today, we are cooking Cajun style, and that means gumbo. Now, one of the most important ingredients in gumbo is...
Tim: Gum. Lots of gum. Just take it off the bottom of tables and...
Al: Tim. That would be okra.
Tim: Okra! From the great state of Okra-homa. [audience is silent] That's a joke. Half state, half vegetable. Like Arkan-slaw. [quietly] There's no sense making jokes about food, is there?
Al: Now... Ha-ha! The wonderful thing about gumbo is that, in addition to your vegetables and your spices, you can throw just about anything into the pot.
Tim: You know, if we put Al's mom in the pot, we'd have jumbo gumbo. [audience is silent] Well, you'd have to know Al's mom to get that joke. She's a large, angry woman. Like so many of you out there today.
Al: All right, well... Getting back to our Cajun cooking, do you think that they call it Cajun cooking because you cook it in a cage? [audience laughs]
Tim: Oh, come on! You thought that was funny, but you didn't like "Okra-homa"? [audience is silent]
