| This space will be reserved for the ongoing series of quotes my friends and I are collecting. All of these have been said by one of us at one time or another!! They can get pretty funny...at least to us... "Only when I'm standing up....or moving." *Nat's response when I asked her if she was buzzed last night (she turned 21! yay!!)* "Take your shirt off or something!" *Alicia...she was saying this to the main character of the movie we were watching. The intent was so that he could blend in and get away from the people chasing him (he was wearing an orange shirt) but it just came out in a funny way :) * "I'll be sitting in my rocking chair on my horse....I mean porch!" *Nat* "Homework! I wish it would just do itself" *Stevie...self-explanatory* HOUSE RETREAT QUOTES! "Well, I had friends...." *Kim after being killed in Mafia for the 8th time* Jacq: Kim, this is an inappropriate song. Kim: are you stripping me of my jewels? *Kim was actually talking to Nat who had just taken the anklet off of Kim's ankle...but we all thought it was a new way of saying 'are you calling me fat?'* "Are you calling me fat?" *whoever feels like saying it at any random time to keep people on their toes...but it was invented by Nat.* "Oh my gosh, there's a spider on my neck!......death becomes him...." *Kim* "There's still time for you to change....if you so desire." *Ashley's way of saying 'you can if you want ot'* "Squids..." *Nat...the resident English major ;-)* "Poor, naked child..." *Kim...referring to Nat as she lamented the fact that she could not stop at Starbuck's on the way to our house retreat* "Giant babies, all of you!" [not just babies...not just big babies.....GIANT babies...] *Kendra* "Because that's what we are! Piano performers. We perform on the piano. Unless, of course you are not a performer (looks pointedly and Breanne and me) in which case you don't perform." *Craig Sheppard...our piano repertoire professor* "Well, he looks like a mass-murderer!" *Robin (Natalie's mom) in reference to a picture of one of my friends she saw on my computer slide show* "It's been working all day. I don't know what's wrong with it." *me in reference to the fact that we had working Internet all day in the house which was odd* "Well, that's how they used to do that back then!" *Frank...talking about the songs and poems in Lord of the Rings...in other words back when Middle Earth was real and hobbits roamed the land...* "Just because for that!" *Frank...he brought shorts for his visit to Seattle just in case we played tennis, and he felt like portraying that in a semi-sentence* "I didn't touch your manhood!" *Erin...meaning she hadn't touched the jenga game that Mark and Frank claimed would prove who was the better man* "What?! I thought everyone knew that!!" *new friend Ryan in response to the fact that neither Erin nor Lindsay nor myself realized that Dolphins have sex for pleasure* RANDOM QUOTES FROM SUMMER! "It's like the thong of all curtains." *Josh W.'s debut on the quote board! context: the basement of his new house consists of the garage and a room. the room is being shared by two guys and there is a curtain that goes from floor to ceiling dividing the room into two spaces...except the curtain is only about a foot wide...thus it is the "thong of all curtains"* "This is really sandy for a beach" *me...what I should have said was 'this is really sandy for a beach on Whidbey Island'. I thought it was implied (Jenn understood what I meant) but apparently it was not, because Jacob got a good long laugh out of it* "Yay God!" *something that Jenn, Bre, Frank, and I picked up one evening at the City Beach playground* LAKEWOOK QUOTES! "No one was there!" *Breanne's explanation as to why she went into the oncoming traffic's turn lane to make a left into a gas station* Me to Frank: Want to do it for real now?

Frank to Jenn: You're a polaroid...maybe if you shake it you'll develop! "I was there!" *this one originated with Jenn, but everyone ended up partaking in the fun. I guess the first night, Frank wouldn't let her fall asleep, and he was telling her a story about a walrus that had a silver tusk, and he went into a bar and started beating people with said tusk. and at this point in the story Jenn said, "oh I was there!" the best part of this phrase came on the last day when Josh McDowell was speaking. he was giving the story of how he became a Christian and he said "and people ask me 'how do you know it's when you became a Christian?' and I answer 'I know! I was there!'" there was never more laughing during his testimony than at that moment* "You pulled a Lily!" *I didn't figure this one out for a while...apparently there was an unspoken rule that you didn't get an explanation of this one until you figured it out yourself. one night I was getting some stuff out of the truck and Frank his back turned to the bed. he turned around and my butt was in is face...hence "pulling a Lily" everyone pulled one at some point in the week and it was fun to watch them realize what it meant* "Need a beer? There's plenty in the truck." *numerous jokes were made about the fact that I packed some of the food that we brought in old beer boxes from the bowling alley...about six of them were completely visible in the back of my truck* *numerous jokes were also made about Kevin not being able to boil water. he had the unfortunate job of making macaroni one night and didn't let the water get to a full boil, thus making macaroni mush. he won't ever be able to live that one down* Frank: Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery! Josh L.: Yeah, and it's also the highest form of annoyance... "You're the solo guy calling out the super angry animal!" *Prof. Salzman* "I'll just keep ridin' you until you're mad at me. I don't need your love. I'm good." *Prof. Salzman* "Don't play triplets!

That's why I'm conducting now." Band director Tom, commenting on percussionists "Drugs are bad...no high flutes!" Band director Matt, commenting on flutes...as usual... "Well, it looked good in the mirror..." Matt, commenting on his conducting technique "He would think I was the embodiment of lust and sin."

Me: Well yeah....because the early one starts at 7:37 *btw, I'm not being mean...it's common knowledge among our group that early Inn is at 7:37 and late Inn is at 9:29...* "I'll penalty card your butt so fast..." *Corey (making his debut on the quote page) while playing mau...I'm not sure what I was going to do to him, but it was bad enough that he threatened me with a penalty card!* "Language was only invented when unattractive people were born and needed to be commented on." *Jack on Will & Grace...just to let you know, we don't normally watch this show...but it was on and we were bored* "When did he, when did he, when did he?" *Ross on Friends* "Crappity, crap crap...I just killed Him." *direct historical quote (said by Jane) of what Pontius Pilate said when Ceasar Octavian requested that the healer from Jerusalem be brought to make him well...in other words we were talking about the fate of Pontius Pilate...* "Well, we were really high...no we were really hyper!!!" *Amber...see way below for her words of wisdom about heroin...* "When I was younger I loved jazz because I got to hang out with the weird people!" *Marc Seales, my history of jazz professor* "That's a good definition, but it still don't explain anything." *Marc Seales* "Things you put down on paper can't explain what you hear." *Marc Seales* "Imagine that your house is about to be reduced to a rubble of heap...." *Michael Krause at the Inductive Bible Study conference* "Are y'all gettin' this?
