>> Ok, now, for a REAL challenge, try to identify where they all came from!
Ok, here are my answers to the first "Moriarty Sign-Off Collection" posting.
My comments appear [in square brackets]. I didn't bother posting the
answers to the quotes which were obvious (ie: the character or movie was
mentioned in the quote. Underdog, Bullwinkle, Dangermouse, etc.) Some of
these are killing me, I wish somebody (nudge-nudge, Moriarty) would post
the answers to these quotes.

actually, "she's not noly merely dead, she's really most sincerely dead" comes from the Wizard of Oz, not Monty Python. At least not originally

Ok, Ok. I'm sorry. The "Hey, man, I'm an electrician!" quote is indeed from
Doosebury and the "She's not only merely dead, she's really most sincerely
dead." is from "The Wizard of Oz". Several people have written me. I guess
I just got a little confused.
Does anyone have anymore of the quotes identified? I'm still going crazy
over the "You can't go in there. Yes I can. I can go anywhere. This is America"
quote. Anyone know where it is from? It sounds so familar.
"Do you really think we can look forward to any reasonable amount of
consistancy in the world today?"
"Oh I do! I certainly do!"
"Then there's hope for all of us!"
"Yech-O. This Coke tastes different."

Though this may have actually appeared on "The Big Valley,"
I wager that it was really taken from the movie "Airplane,"
in which it is spoken by 'Johnny,' Lloyd Bridges' assistant.
