Larry Jaques asked the magic question:



Couldn't they make up their minds between maximum and average? sigh
PSI sure has had some competition. We also have psi, psig, and psia.
What would Nick Danger, Third Eye, say about this brouhaha?

"My nostrils flared at the scent of his perfume: Pyramid Patchouli.
There was only one joker in L.A. sensitive enough to wear *that*
scent...and I had to find out who he was!"


Rocky Rococo at your Cervix......




"Better get your mucklucks out of the cellophane before they scorch."

Not Nick but Ralph:

"This car is *full* of factory air - conditioned air from our fully
factory - air - conditioned factory."

I got a free elephant ride just for going to see Ralp Spoilsport
Motors!

And the automated voice in the motorhome "Apple Valley Condoms. If you
lived here, you'd be home by now."

"Apple Valley Condoms, 1 mile.
Apple Valley Condoms, 1/2 mile.
Apple Valley Condoms, 1/4 mile.
Apple Valley Condoms, 1/8 mile.
Apple Valley Condoms, 1/16 mile.
Apple Valley Condoms, 1/32 mile.
Apple Valley Condoms, 1/64 mile.
Apple Valley Condoms, 1/128 mile."

No, "Antelope Freeway, 1/4 mile." etc.
"Should I take the Antelope Freeway or the Gomorrah Expressway..."


..............................................

"Sound of someone falling down stairs.

Nick: “Uh. Where am I?”

Sound of someone slapping someone else.

Nancy (in a falsetto voice): “Nicky, Nick, Nick, Nick. Are you alright?”

Nick: “Uh, yes.”

Nancy: “Then stop slapping me.”

"I was sitting in my office, listening to the monotonous staccato of
rain on my desktop."
