Al Quote #116

Quote from Al in Arrivederci, Binford

Al: Sorry, Tim, but I... I don't have my usual sense of humor. And frankly, I find your attempt at levity a little inappropriate.
Tim: What am I gonna do, cry in my beer?
Al: Well, if you did, I wouldn't look down on you.
Tim: It's not gonna bring him back. All right?
Al: That's not the point. You suffered a big loss. We all did. [sobs]
Tim: Pull it together, will you, Al?
Al: I just... I didn't really need that spigot! I just thought maybe it would be nice to have some hot chocolate once in a while.
Tim: [to the other patrons] It devastates him when they run out of corn nuts.

Quote from Al

Tim: That brings us to the final segment here on Tool Time. You know, when men get done doing a real hard job, sometimes we don't look like we want to, right, Al?
Al: No, we don't, Tim.
Tim: I'm usually hot, greasy, sweaty...
Al: And bleeding.

Quote from Tim

Tim: Al has just cleaned this window with Binford's standard-size squeegee, perfect for daily jobs. For the big job, you might want to turn to Binford's mega squeegee. This can clean the windshield of a big rig in one stroke.
Al: And a storefront in under a minute.
Tim: And Al's mother's back in less than an hour. Now remember, if it doesn't say "Binford" on it, somebody else probably makes it.

Quote from Wilson

Wilson: Well, Tim, maybe crying isn't your outlet. The shedding of tears is just one way that people mourn.
Tim: [grunts] Oh?
Wilson: Oh, yes. In parts of Mexico, the bereaved decorate the grave with smiling puppets, and then they eat chocolate coffins.
Tim: Melts in your mouth, but not in the ground.
Wilson: On the Solomon Islands, they hang the dead man's arms on his hut. And in feudal Japan, when a lord died, the ronin samurai would show their loyalty by disemboweling themselves.
Tim: Whew, talk about guts.
Wilson: Point is, Tim, when you lose somebody who's close to you, you have to find a way to mourn. It's what enables you to accept the fact that person is really, truly... gone.
