Ned: You saw _Ben-Hur_ without me? Maude: We were broken up then- I think it’s just priceless somehow. Though nothing tops “aw hell, diddley-ding-dong-CRAP!!” and the ‘Dick Tracy’ thing from _Hurricane Neddy_. ---

Ned: My name is Ned. All: Hello, Ned! Ned: It’s been 4,000 days since my last drink. It was my first – and last – blackberry schnapps. ``` [flashback of Ned and Maude in bed] ``` Maude: Ned, did you clip Ann Landers today? Ned: [climbing into bed] Ann Landers is a boring old biddy! Maude: [gasps] Ned! ``` [back to reality] ``` Ned: [sobbing] I was more animal than man! ---

Well, it allows for maximum mobility; feels like I’m wearing nothing at all. Ned: I guess we’ll have an imagination Christmas this year. Rod: I’ve got a pogo stick. Todd: I’ve got a hula-hoop. You name it, I haven’t done it! Maude: Some people like chunky peanut butter, some like smooth! Ned: Mmm-hmm, and some people just steer clear of that whole hornet’s nest! I’ll stick with just plain white bread, thank you very much, maybe with a … Maude & boys: … glass of water on the side for dipping? And I believe it’s: Go get Daddy’s exorcism tongs. ---

Todd: I said I don’t want any damn vegetables. Ned: All right, that’s it, young man! No Bible stories for you tonight! _(Todd runs out of room, crying)_ Maude: Weren’t you a little hard on him?

We’ll see. from the episode where Ned and HOmer are buddies, Homer Loves Flanders, clipped from our favourite Simpsons information archive [www.snpp.com](http://www.snpp.com) . _As Flanders plays basketball with his kids, Homer appears through the hedge separating the neighbor’s houses._ Homer: Hey! What’s up for today, Neddy? Ned: Uh, er, Homer, we’re gonna visit the boys’ grandmother. Family only, you know? Homer: Right! No reporters. Ned: No, I, I…I mean just the Flanders family. Homer: [_slowly_] Oh, OK. [_goes back through the hedge_] Todd: Oh boy! Grandma! Ned: We’re not goin’ anywhere. Todd: But you said – Ned: Er…sometimes to keep from hurting someone’s feelings, you have to say things that aren’t exactly – Rod: Lies make baby Jesus cry. ---
