delivered AGAIN!”

7> “Beer man! We’ll take… hey, didn’t you used to be in
Menudo?”

Christina Aguilera ends up in Playboy?”

5> “No, no, no. Listen, I’ll go over it once more, and please
pay attention this time: When we’re the Backstreet Boys, you
put the fake tattoo on the right arm and wear black pants.
Tonight the fake tattoo goes on the *left* arm and we wear
*blue* pants. Got it?”

4> “Renouncing the ABM treaty is only going to spur China into
increasing the size of their small nuclear arsenal, fueling
an arms race on the subcontinent between China’s natural
rivals, India and Pakistan, and that will just serve to
destabilize UN anti-proliferation efforts…”

3> “I’m not the fat one! YOU’RE the fat one! I’m the CUTE
one!!”

2> “Mommy, can you help me tie my shoes? I have to go on stage
in a minute!”
