Thanks very much to everybody who contributed to my request. You all have shown
great imagination. And with the abundance of replies, *many* more than I ever
expected, you have also shown great patience with having to read everybody's
suggestions. Since everybody on the list sees what I see, I won't go into all
the suggestions. So here are the final results. The folks in Dr. Waller's lab
did some brainstorming and have come up with the finalists. But first a warmup.
The Top Ten List
"Santa Claus pickup lines"
As presented on the 12/5/95 broadcast of LATE SHOW with DAVID LETTERMAN
10. "I'll make you shake like a bowl full of jelly"
9. "I put the 'scroo' in 'Scrooge'!"
8. "I've got something you can hang a wreath on"
7. "One hour with me honey and you'll see flyin' reindeer"
6. "Buy you a Zima?"
5. "That is a candy cane in my pocket, and I'm glad to see you"
4. "Uh-yeah, that's right, I'm Kenny Rogers"
3. "I got your stocking stuffer right here, Shirley!"
2. "Giddy-up over here and say 'Howdy' to your fat, bearded cowboy of love!"
1. "I've got an elf in my pants!"
And now for the grand finale. (drum roll, please.)
