> before."
>
> 2. "Find Amelia Earhart yet?"
>
> 3. "Can you hear me NOW?"
>
> 4. "Oh boy, that was sphincterrific!"
>
> 5. "Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"
>
> 6. "You know, inArkansas, we're now legally married."
>
> 7. "Any sign of the trapped miners, Chief?"
>
> 8. "You put your left hand in, you take your left hand out. You do the Hokey Pokey...."
>
> 9. "Hey! Now I know how a Muppet feels!"
>
> 10."If your hand doesn't fit, you must acquit!"
>
> 11. "Hey, Doc, let me know if you find my dignity."
>
> 12. "You used to be an executive at Enron, didn't you?"
>

A real one

I was giving an old bloke a suppository one day and he yelled "For Christ' sake! Stop when you get to the elbow will ya!" Of course I had to maintain a professional demanour but my colleagues within hearing distance were wetting themselves!
