Al Quote #408
Quote from Al in All in the Family
Heidi: Welcome back to "Woodworking Week" and our special segment on dents, defects and gouges.
Al: Now, we've just showed you how to inlay knots to cover blemishes.
Tim: Since we're done working on Al's face, we can now start on this nice table. Okay, say you have a lacquered or varnished table...
Al & Heidi: You have a lacquered or varnished table.
Tim: With a small dent in it. Doink!
Al: Not to worry. No need to sand off the finish to restore this table to its natural beauty.
Tim: No, no, no. We're gonna show you a process that we call "doping in."
Al: Doping in can be done in one of two ways. You can stick Tim into the dent. [snorts]

Quote from Tim
Tim: I'm not finished yet. I'm not finished yet. You know, just because a wood is coarse and unfinished doesn't make it inferior. You know, I believe this country was founded on the principle that all wood has the inalienable right to become a nice cabinet!
Al: What exactly is your point, Tim?
Tim: I mean that all wood is created equal, regardless of color, creed or burl. And fourscore and seven tables ago...
Al: We'll be right back to "Woodworking Week" after we medicate our host.
Quote from Jill

Jill: I believe you broke the mold.
Quote from Wilson
Wilson: Jill, everybody picks up certain negative characteristics from their parents.
Jill: Yeah, well, I knew I picked up negative characteristics from my mother. I didn't know I'd gotten them from my father, too. That hardly seems fair.
Wilson: Right there. See, now, by identifying them, you make the first step to overcoming them. You know, it took me years of hard work to get rid of my father's annoying traits.
Jill: Really? What was he like?
Wilson: Odd man. Kept to himself. Never really let people see the whole person.
