Robin Quote #345

Quote from Robin in The Possimpible

Robin: I'm screwed. I've been sending out my reel for three months, and nothing.
Ted: Well, maybe there's something in your reel that people aren't responding to. Let's take a look at it, right?
Robin: [on tape, in a snowstorm] That's a good question, Norm.
Robin: The first thing is from when I was a cub reporter for Channel 22 in Red Deer. In Alberta. In Canada.
All: Oh.
Marshall: Canada.
Barney: Right.
Robin: [on tape] Well, the snow's coming down pretty hard, but these intrepid fishermen are still happy to be out competing in Lake Athabasca's Bass Fishing Jamboree, an August 1st tradition. Back to you, Norm.
Robin: What? That was my first job. It shows where I came from.
Barney: Unless a bear attacks you in the next three seconds and you snap its neck with your legs, that has no business being on your reel.
