View Full Version : Things We Learned From Benson
catlover79 11-23-2007, 02:43 PM ALWAYS make sure both parties are single before playing matchmaker.
ALWAYS make sure that a cane is not really a gun.
ALWAYS watch where you're going if you happen to be in the same room as a bearskin rug.
Tiny bathrooms were not designed for a private conversation for three.
Little chairs were not designed to hold grown men.
The youngest member of the household is usually the wisest.
Late night conversations over milk and cookies will always cheer a person up. :D
BensonFan 11-23-2007, 02:51 PM Always make sure the door doesn't close behind you (or you might get locked in a room with the brash German housekeeper). :lol:
catlover79 11-23-2007, 02:54 PM Don't let Kraus near the control board for the school play. :lol:
WATCH out if Taylor/Clayton starts being nice to you. It's never a good sign.
Bring a pillow if Gov. Gatling starts telling a long, boring, pointless story.
Don't let Gov. Gatling try to write his own speeches.
Pete REALLY doesn't like his ex-wife. :lol:
BensonFan 11-23-2007, 02:58 PM Don't eat anything Katie made all by herself.
catlover79 11-23-2007, 06:04 PM Why knock yourself out doing a school project when Kraus and Marcy can do it for you?
NEVER trust beautiful women with red hair and blue eyes who wear lots of lip gloss.
BensonFan 11-23-2007, 08:26 PM WATCH out if Taylor/Clayton starts being nice to you. It's never a good sign.
This is the ultimate lesson learned by Benson. :lol:
catlover79 11-24-2007, 12:06 AM If you're pregnant, make sure you never go near an elevator or a run-down shack in the middle of a blizzard. That is where you are sure to go into labor. :eek:
NEVER dress up as the Sugar Plum Fairy with real sugar cubes - unless you want to be eaten by horses. :eek:
blink 11-24-2007, 02:46 PM Always watch out for the dogs.
The governor is really a smart guy but he's just scatterbrained.
You can't have lactose-intolerance and be on the show.
If you eat anything that Katie made herself you will ether start gagging on the spot or come down with acid-reflux afterwards.:eek:
BensonFan 11-24-2007, 03:23 PM If you can't sleep, come down to the kitchen. Chances are you'll find someone sitting at the table drinking milk.
BensonFan 11-25-2007, 01:53 AM Never lend your car to Pete.
catlover79 11-25-2007, 04:22 AM If you are stupid enough to eat something Katie made by herself, make sure you have plenty of Pepto Bismol handy!! puke:
catlover79 11-25-2007, 12:13 PM It doesn't matter if you whisper, use sign language, or write your words down - Kraus will ALWAYS hear you!! :eek: :lol:
svt65 11-26-2007, 12:16 AM Never take Pete out to lunch, and never watch while he's eating. It ain't pretty!
++++
If you want to have a private conversation, don't have it while Marcy's nearby!
BensonFan 11-26-2007, 12:22 AM If you can't find your calculator, no problem...Denise can add up those figures just as quickly!
catlover79 11-26-2007, 12:23 AM NEVER go on a vacation with Taylor - unless you want to be subjected to non-stop whining, complaining, laziness and annoying sinus noises!! :eek:
BensonFan 11-26-2007, 12:41 AM The nicest restaurant in town is "Smitty's"
BensonFan 11-27-2007, 12:08 AM When vacationing at a lodge, always bring LOTS of extra food in case you get snowed in.
catlover79 11-27-2007, 12:15 AM Watch out for swinging sun props. :rofl:

catlover79 04-03-2008, 11:19 PM Always watch you are going lest you and all your friends trip over a bearskin rug.
Grown men look very silly in child-size chairs.
Adorable little blond girls enjoy KISS.
Kraus' dogs are almost as scary as she is.
Elevators are not places where you want to give birth.
BensonFan 05-22-2008, 08:54 PM Never go to press if you think you've seen a UFO. :p
:ufo:
blink 06-05-2008, 07:20 PM For a very good reason, Clayton was very sensitive about his nose. pinoc:
A long winded story doesn't have to be true, as long as it makes a point.
If you don't want the trash cans turned over and mashed, don't set them anywhere near Pete's parking spot. :eat:
Denise had really nice teeth. :D :rolleyes:
Mrs. Kraus was capable of being nice, when she wanted to be.
Katie didn't really hate Clayton, she just liked him less than other people.
And going out to catch a movie barefooted can be awkward, if not down right painful. :(

Smitty's is THE place to go if you want to get lucky - most of the time. (Pete)
catlover79 04-28-2009, 08:49 PM Marcy's hairstyle looked better in the first season.
blink 04-28-2009, 09:43 PM A fellow (Clayton) can shave off his mustache one week and it's completely grown back the next. I can't grow a halfway decent one even if I don't shave for a full year. :(

blink 05-03-2009, 06:18 PM If you (Marcie) see a fresh little mound of dirt on the lawn while you're looking for buried gold, never dig there, it may contain a dead squirrel in a shoebox. :eek3:
