  Charlie Skinner : When Don says "eat me," that's usually the end of the conversation.

  Tate Brady : Sloan Sabbith! You want to be a star?

• Neal Sampat : A popular discussion at the moment there's recent article projecting U.S. credit rating fallout as a result of the debt ceiling standoff.

  Sloan Sabbith : Yes, I heard that on the news. No wait... I didn't. I heard about Casey Anthony instead.

  Neal Sampat : Well that's where I jumped in. I said, "If I can balance my checkbook, why can't the government balance its budget?"

  Sloan Sabbith : Mary mother of God am I sick of that insane analogy. Balancing your checkbook is to balancing the budget as driving to the supermarket is to landing on the moon.
