    Richard Karn Quotation


    (Commenting on the death of his mother, who succumbed to cancer in 1983): "I thought my parents were invincible. It never occurred to me she would die."




    Movie Title: Home Improvement (1991) as Al:


    [repeated line whenever Tim makes a smart comment on Tool Time]
    Al : I don't think so, Tim.


    Jill : That's not what you think, is it, Tim?
    Tim : It's not?
    Jill : No.
    Al : What DO you think?
    Tim : I don't know, ask her.


    Tim : Do you suppose that if this grass were on fire, it'd call Fescue 911?
    Al : I don't think so, Tim.


    Al : Do you think they call it Cajun cooking because you cook it in a cage?
    Tim : I don't think so, Al.


    Boy : [Tim is dressed as Nanastein, a creepy old woman] This is pathetic. You're in a dress, your son is a doll, and your wife is a radish.
    Jill : Hey, I'm a carrot. Learn your vegetables.
    Tim : Hey lighten up, don't ruin this for everybody else, okay?
    Boy : If you built this, it's all gonna fall apart anyway. I've seen your show. It ought to be called Fool Time.
    Tim : [after pause] You know, making fun of Nanastein's favorite show is not a good idea, son. Why don't you check out Nana's tool box.
    Boy : Oh ho, a tool box. I'm scared. What's gonna happen? Is a wrench gonna pop out and say, "Boo!"
    Tim : I don't know.
    Boy : [the tool box falls apart to reveal a bucket] Ooo ho ho, a bucket. I'm really scared. [lifts the bucket to find Al's head]
    Al : Grrr! Arrr! [boy screams in fright and runs]


    Al : This is my assistant, Tim "Doesn't know Gumbo from Dumbo" Taylor.
    Tim : Sure I do. Dumbo is a pachyderm and Gumbo is a little green guy who rides Pokey.

    [Tim is reluctant to make Al's mom jokes]
    Al : Oh, I see. That wasn't in the plans either. While this buzzer sends thousands of volts coursing through my body while he stands back and says, "Remember the AL-amo". Then comes the uncalled for slams against my mother. How she shops in the *husky* section. How she cleared out the all-you-can-eat buffet. Just go ahead say it, [shouting]
    Al : my mother is a big fat cow.
    Tim : [after pause] Goodness gracious, Al.


    Tim : Thank you, I am Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor and you all know my assistant, Al... Borland.
    Al : What's the matter, no stupid middle name? Is it my birthday?
    Tim : We don't always have to joke around, you know, this isn't Fool Time.


    Al : Merry Christmas. You know Christmas always reminds me of my childhood. I used to build a snowman every year. I used a carrot for its nose. Cookies for its eyes. Licorice for its smile.
    Tim : That's a great story, Al. Unfortunately, Al's Mom usually ate the snowman.
    Al : One year. She used the carrot to make coleslaw.


    Al : Didn't you study the manual at all?
    Tim : A real man doesn't need a manual.


    Tim : I'm driving.
    Al : [Dressed as Santa Claus] Now, Tim, it's against regulations to let an elf drive the sleigh.


    Al : Say, do you think they call it a nail gun because it shoots nails?


    Al : Speaking of staple guns, do you suppose that they call it a staple gun, because it shoots out staples? [Audience is silent]
    Tim : Yes I do, Al.


    Al : These are also useful if Superman wants to take a peek at your underwear.
    Tim : No problem there. I'm not wearing any.


    Tim : For men, there are two kinds of vegetables: your beans and your potatoes. I had my beans yesterday.
    Al : I know.


    Tim : We're going to introduce a new color today: the color Al.
    Al : I don't want to be a color, Tim.
    Tim : Neither did red and look how well he turned out.


    Al : It's The Tiki Hut Cookbook.
    Heidi : Do you like it?
    Al : I love this. Now I can make pu-pu at home.


    Tim : I'm no more valuable than Al.
    Al : I agree.
    Tim : On the job site, there's no difference between Al's tools and my tools.
    Al : Actually, Tim, there is: at the end of the job- [Tries to switch on Tim's soupled-up power sander]
    Al : My tools still work.


    Tim : [after unsuccessfully breaking a block of wood with his head] B-Binford Tools. Messages. We have 'em.
    Al : We'll be right back.


    Al : I remember my first Christmas rebellion: I was so mad. My parents went out and bought an artificial tree. The whole Christmas I refused to sing 'Oh, Tannenbaum'.
    Tim : Oh my. You were a bad, bad Borland. [to Jill]
    Tim : Are you all right?
    Al : Yeah I'm okay. It was a long time ago.
    Tim : [to Jill] I meant, are YOU okay?


    Al : I saw Mark in his costume. I always wanted to be the letter N.
    Tim : That's impossible, Al. The song specifically says No Al. [singing to the tune of Noel]
    Tim : No Al, No Al, No Al, No Al.


    Al : I'd better go before the Putt-Putt is shut-shut.


    Al : I'm part owner and she makes me feel like a stock boy. Dolores: Hey stocky boy, run across the street and get me some hot tea.
    Tim : Yeah, stocky boy. Remember how she likes it: two sugars and a big lump of arsenic.


    Tim : Oh no, we overslept.
    Al : I have to go.
    Tim : No, stick around awhile.
    Al : [Running outside] No, I mean I have to GO.
    Tim : We have a bathroom in the house, Al.


    Al : But first, I would like to get something off my chest.
    Tim : That tie?
    Al : Ah, I'm just a little bit cheesed here. The other day I was in the supermarket and I... I was in the frozen food section. And they had lima beans, 3 for a dollar. And I took four. And the lady at the check-out counter said, "Hey, can't you count?"


    Al : I take my work seriously and all you do is crack jokes.
    Tim : Crack jokes? Well the way you bend over like that...
    Al : See? Now that's what I'm talking about.


    Al : Anyone can do what you do.
    Tim : Oh really? You think you could do what I do?
    Al : Oh please. How hard could it be to tell bad jokes and screw up all the time?
    Tim : Alot harder than it looks.


    Tim : My pneumatic dry-wall stilts.
    Al : Pneumatic dry-wall stilts?
    Tim : Is there an echo in the building?

    Felix Mymnan: [Thanks to Tim, the water pipes are groaning loudly, fit to burst] I know that sound from when I worked on a sub in the navy.
    Tim : What happens now? Felix Myman: I'm going AWOL. [Exits]
    Al : Me too. [Exits]
    Tim : [to camera] I'm going down.


    Al : [In church] I'll just take a pew behind you.
    Tim : Most people use the bathroom, Al.


    Al : I can't find Tim. I checked the bathrooms. Men's AND women's.


    Al : It's difficult to go through life with a deviated septum.
    Tim : It could be worse. You could be working at the circus as Al the Donkey Boy.


    Tim : [Al has locked him out] Al, you can't end it like this. We've had a relationship for three years.
    Al : It's over between us.
    Tim : Al, open the door.
    Al : No. You should never have made that recording of me in bed.


    Tim : You all know my assistant, Al Borland... Al? We're on the air, Al!
    Al : [From inside the bathroom] What? [Rushes out]
    Al : You could have given me some warning.
    Tim : Where would the fun be in that?


    Al : The space between your ears could fill the Mall of America.
    Tim : [Hisses]


    Tim : Next, we'll try to convert some poor sap into Al's house guest.
    Al : Then we'll convert that stuff on your face into an actual beard.
    Tim : Gee, Al not everyone can grow a beard as fast as your mom.


    Tim : Hey Al, we need a fourth player for our poker game tonight. You wanna join us?
    Al : I haven't played in about ten years.
    Tim : Perfect.


    Tim : Al, what's your favorite part of gardening!
    Al : Getting down and dirty with my hoe!


    Heidi : Scott and I are separated. He moved out two weeks ago.
    Al : Heidi, I'm so sorry. Why didn't you say something about this before?
    Heidi : Because I didn't want to bring my personal problems to work.
    Tim : Why not?
    Heidi : Because you said, "Don't ever bring your personal problems to work".
    Tim : Since when do you listen to me?
    Heidi : Since you said I'd better start listening to you.
    Al : [to Tim] Nice going, Mr. Compassion!


    Al : Show me the hand signals for swinging the crane.
    Tim : Hello? Boom! [Shows him, accidentally breaking Al's home-made crane model]
    Tim : Oh, sorry, Al. Uh, well I guess that's it for the hand signals.
    Al : Actually, Tim, I do have one another hand signal for you that's not in the manual.

    Bridgette: How come everytime I drive by the plant, all that smoke is coming out of the stacks?
    Tim : THEY'RE SMOKESTACKS!
    Al : THEY'RE SMOKESTACKS!
    Tim : What do you expect to be coming out of there, Hi Karate? Some kind of whipped cream or something? What do you want?
