"They suck at it" was a great line, but I don't get another remark he made: "the Jacques Cousteau of the Keystone Cops". I get the Keystone Cops reference, but why compare him to a famous ocean explorer? :shrug:

6. I think I figured it out.
He probably meant Inspector Clouseau from the "Pink Panther" movies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inspector_Clouseau

7. you may be right.
although I don't see it 100%, bit it would make more sense. Regardless, I loved the way he talked to these tools! Very awesome. The rest of his thrashing was quite clear to me and was a thing of beauty.
