Seems we're saying goodbye too often lately. We're losing some really good ones. We're all going to have to pick up the slack in this tired old world to make up for it.
Love, Ima

"Does your dog bite?"
"No."
//bends down to pet dog and is immediately and savagely bitten
"I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOUR DOG DOES NOT BITE?!?"
"That... is not my dog."

This is perhaps the most classic of the Clouseau lines...
