Wilson Quote #299
Quote from Wilson in The Flirting Game
Wilson: Well, Jill, unfortunately, everybody, at some time or another, is susceptible to the wiles of the opposite sex.
Jill: Well, I come from the old school of feminism. I don't want to be wily. You know that I wasn't even aware I was flirting with that cop. For all I know, I may have been doing it the whole time in that job interview I had.
Wilson: Well, unfortunately, in many societies, women are at a disadvantage, so that subconsciously, or consciously, they flirt in order to level the playing field.
Jill: In other words, you guys own the stadium, and we're the pom-pom girls.
Wilson: Well, I didn't make the rules. I'm just on the winning team.
Jill: The whole thing stinks.
Wilson: Well, I know who would agree with you. Charlotte Whitten, the Canadian feminist. She said that whatever women do, they have to do twice as well as men in order to be thought half as good.
Jill: I don't mind working twice as hard. It's these stupid games I don't want to have to play. And I'm not gonna let myself do it anymore. You men are so lucky you don't have to do that stuff.
Wilson: Well, sometimes we do it anyway.
Jill: Ah, not you, Wilson.
Wilson: Oh, it's true. Whenever I want that special book from Shirley the librarian, I roguishly flash my baby blues... ...and eloquently quote the Greek philosophers. I disgust myself, but I always get the book.

Quote from Tim
Tim: Hi again, and welcome back to Tool Time.
Al: Where we continue our look at antique tools.
Tim: These beautiful, handcrafted, antique tools came from a time when more power meant manpower. [grunts]
Al: Now, over here, we have two pedal-powered machines. This happens to be a pedal-powered scroll saw.
Tim: Over here is a lathe. Let me show you how this works. Take a seat here. Now, say you're making a table leg.
Al: You're making a table leg. [laughs]
Tim: It's like an exercise bike. While you're shaping your leg, your leg's getting shaped. [imitates Pee-wee Herman laugh]
Al: Now, over here we have an old rope-making machine. You simply turn the crank and three pieces of twine become one piece of rope.
Tim: In the time before television, families would sit around the rope machine and watch knots landing.
Quote from Tim
Tim: Tell us about this, Al.
Al: Well, this is an old hog oiler.
Tim: Now, how does this compare with the one in your mom's house?
Al: You see, the way these work is the hog comes up and it rubs against the rollers like so. And the skin becomes moist.
Tim: Oh. So, the hog actually looks at this as kind of an "oinkment." [Al laughs]
