Wilson Quote #105
Quote from Wilson in The Great Race
Tim: I'm just in this lawn-mowing competition with Bob Vila.
Wilson: Mm. Nothing like the rousing spirit of competition.
Tim: Yeah. Jill and Karen think it's a stupid idea.
Wilson: Well, Tim, competition can be a very healthy thing.
Tim: That's what I think. I think competition inspires men. Challenges us to build the biggest building, the fastest missile, the most absorbent bathroom tissue. [grunts]
Wilson: Competition brings out the best in product.
Tim: You're darn right.
Wilson: But sometimes the worst in men.
Tim: [grunts] Oh, yeah.

Quote from Tim
Tim: Yeah, thanks, Officer. I'll make sure I get those tickets for Tool Time for you. You bet. So... how was your day?
Jill: Well... When I heard on the news that there was a lawn mower running amuck down I-96, with a police helicopter in hot pursuit, I thought to myself, "Could this be my husband?" Are you all right?
Tim: Pretty good chance of that. Yeah, I'm all right. There's good news and bad news. The bad news is... I got a ticket and they impounded the lawn mower.
Jill: What's the good news?
Tim: Good news is... I mowed 40 lawns and made 186 bucks.
Quote from Jill
Jill: Oh, ignore him. He's always in a snit when Bob Vila's on the show.
Karen: Isn't he the guy that has that national tool show that Tim ripped off?
Tim: Don't start, Karen, please. All I've heard all week long is, "Bob Vila this, Bob Vila that." What does Bob Vila have that I don't?
Karen: High ratings.
Jill: Fans.
Karen: Big salary.
Tim: Are you through?
Jill: Oh, pookie. We're just kidding. Remember, you have something to be proud of that Bob Vila does not have.
Tim: Oh, yeah. What?
Jill: Al.
Quote from Tim
