Tim Quote #1938

Quote from Tim in Tanks for the Memories

Lt. Col. McDougal: Uh, Tim, you might want to stay away from the tank commander's post. There are a lot buttons that can get you into trouble.
Tim: [grunts] Oh, I love buttons.
Jill: Man, what I wouldn't give to get behind the T-bar of one of these hogs.
Lt. Col. McDougal: Well, Jill, even though women aren't allowed to operate these in combat, we could arrange a test drive for you.
Jill: No! You're kidding me! You're gonna let me drive a tank? Tim, he is gonna let me drive a tank!
Tim: I don't think that's such a good idea. She has the facts, but hands-on experience - that's something else. [fires artillery] Everybody OK? I was just showing her how to use the machine gun.

Quote from Al

Al: Well, that was a pretty quick game of Scrabble. Now we're ready for Chinese Checkers.
Brad: Oh, sorry, Al. Mom says we're not allowed to be playing "Chinese Checkers" before bed. Makes us too hyper.
Al: All right. Well, if conventional games don't tickle your fancy, I have a board game that you have never seen.
I invented this myself. It is the prototype for what could become a national craze.
Mark: "The Tool Time Game"? Awesome! How do you play?

Brad: All right, I got Heidi.
Randy: Al.
Mark: Aw, man!

Quote from Al

Tim: Well, let's cut to the chase. Is there any way you could swing it so that I could drive a tank?
Lt. Col. McDougal: Well, Tim, if you ever came to California, where I'm stationed, I'm sure we could arrange it.
Tim: All right!
Al: Excuse me, Colonel, but letting Tim drive a tank, well... that's jeopardizing national security.
Tim: Let it go, Al, please?
Lt. Col. McDougal: Al, you got nothing to worry about. We've got 10,000 Marines on the base to keep their eyes on Tim.
Tim: Right!
Al: It's not enough.
