What about Tobias' gig at the restaurant/hand-job emporium?  Can't remember all of the lines from that scene, but I do recall there being some solid ones.  Little help?

Kitty: Say goodbye to these.

Tobias: They've got blue paint on them too!

Tobias:  After lunch they replace the salad bar with a leather pony... not sure what they use it for though.
Andre Dawson paid his $1,000 fine for the Joe West incident with style. Dawson wrote ``Donation for the blind`` in the memo section of his personal check.

I liked how Kitty had a blue hand print on the top of her head.

Good one at the office when Michael was talking to his sister.  She had been sitting on the copier making copies of, among other things a car brochure she was looking at.  And she's just found out the stock has been upgraded from triple sell to don't buy.

Lindsey: We did it Michael! We're super rich again. I'm going to buy a car! A Volvo.
Michael: Lindsey, you're not going to start spending money, and this is not a Volv-O.
Lindsey: Oh that's from sitting on the copier.
.... later on
Michael: Glad i didnt spring for the color printer..

I also liked this moment, when George Michael wakes up in the stair car only to find that his dad is taking him away from Maeby in Reno who had promised him the other half of his kiss and off to the cabin.

Michael: I almost had Pop-pop in Reno.
George Michael: Me too.

Earlier we had...

Michael: Why don't you take your cousin out front and pop a tent?

Then...I loved George Michael trying to explain to Maeby that he couldn't get up and leave the stair car after their kiss was interrupted by Lindsey because he wanted to "watch that famous Reno sunset." 

Maeby: The sun's setting behind you.
GM: I'll use the mirrors.

Also a nice touch is that Henry Winkler is leaving the show to go to one on CBS (also Monday night--looks bad) and so they fired Barry Zuckercorn as their lawyer, only to replace him next week with...a lawyer played by Scott Baio.  Who else can you replace the Fonz with, but Chachi?

Classic.  I love Eve Holt's quote.

While watching the Sox game last night, I noticed that Bobby Jenks has chalk or resin or something smeared all over the back of his head and the blue hand print on Kitty's head was the first thing I thought of.  Which White Sox player has chalk all over their hands?

Buehrle.

Andy that's fanatstic, BTW.  How did you find that close up?

I like how Gob is an acronym for George Oscar Blum.

Not to be blasphemous, but "AD" seems to have as many, if not more, secondary jokes crammed in all over the place as "The Simpsons".

I liked the line, "While in high school, Gob had intimate relations with six girls (they highlight six photos), three of whom became pregnant (un-highlight three), one had a baby (only Eve Holt! is highlighted.)

And on the letter from SAD, the address of the father-son "rally" is at the corner of Hyde and No. Hope.

How about the "Mission:Accomplished" banner?

This season may turn out to be the best yet.  I have laughed more at these first two episodes than any sitcom since Seinfeld.  The Wee Britain angle is gold.  Any fan had to like the return of the chicken jokes, especially when George, Lucille, Tobais and Lindsay were doing it at once.

Scott Baio: "The others aren't making sense.  I'm Bob Loblaw."

Ron Howard: "Believe me, no one is making fun of Andy Griffith."

Michael: "More touching!"

Michael: "You'll get live ins."

Women's clothing store clerk: "Are you going to buy this time, or are you just curious, again?"
Tobias: "Let's say I'm buy curious."

Tobias: "I can just taste the meaty leading man parts."

Tremendous effort again.

Lindsay: "Did you get me the Lexus?"
Michael: "It's more like a Lincoln."

George Michael: "It's just a stupid girl problem."
Michael: "I don't even have a stupid girl, yet."
George Michael: "Don't worry, it's just stupid."
Ron Howard: "And the kids would be too, the stupid girl problem is with his cousin, Maeby."

I liked when Dave Thomas said to Michael "How would you like it if somebody came after one of your stupid relatives?"
And Michael immediately assumed he meant Gob.  When really it's Dave trying to protect his sister (Charlize Theron) who is obviously a pre-school student, not the teacher.
