• Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : You guys can needle me all you want. But, that dame tonight was really stacked up. And, furthermore, as soon as we finish that line-break, I'm going right back to that little mouse.

  Eddie Adams : If she's waitin' for you, she must be one of the three blind mice.

• Jumbo Wells : As I was tellin' ya, that dame was so thin that every time she took a drink of tomato juice, she looked like a thermometer.

  Omaha : I wish I was home with a good book and a brunette.

  Johnny Marshall : Don't kid us, you can't read.

  Jumbo Wells : Yeah, much later.
