I don’t know if anybody has got this one from **astorian** yet: 1. “Wah wah wah!” That’s Chachi’s line (used much too often, IMHO) from _Happy Days_. I’ll also try this one from **NYR407** : “I would have gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for those meddling kids” Just about every villain on _Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?_ Okay, here are a few more: “May the good news be yours.” “The old \_\_\_\_ trick, eh? Third time this week.” “Norm!” “I know nothink, I see nothink!” “Verrrry interesting…” ---

The last is from _Laugh-In_. ---

It’s Silvio Dante’s impression of Pacino. \*\* Ahhh, seeing as I don’t have HBO and have only seen 1 or 2 episodes of the Sopranos, I wasn’t aware of that. But god how I love Al Pacino. ---
