Tim Quote #3020

Quote from Tim in Tool-Thousand-One: A Space Odyssey

Al: Having our wrench chosen is a great honor for Binford.
Tim: But a prototype like that is very expensive, right?
Ken Bowersox: Actually, NASA isn't paying for it. Binford is.
Tim: [whistles] Ho ho ho ho ho. Get a prototype from Binford and you don't pay for it? Sounds like a scam to me.
Ken Bowersox: Well, there's one more thing you need to know, Tim. As part of the deal, one Binford employee gets to fly along on the mission to operate the wrench.
Tim: Well, I'm a Binford employee.
Ken Bowersox: Yeah, who thinks the entire space program's a scam.
Tim: I said SPAM. It's a good luncheon meat. Pork shoulder. You can take it right up there with you...

Tim: That doesn't answer any questions.
Wilson: No, but it does restate it in a very interesting way. I'm sorry, Tim.
