Bob Clark was also uncredited as "Swede."
Mr. Parker: It's a Major Award!
Swede: A Major Award? Shucks, I wouldn't know that. It looks like a lamp.
Mr. Parker: It is a lamp, you nincompoop, but it's a Major Award. I won it!
Swede: Damn, hell, you say won it?
Mr. Parker: Yeah, mind power, Swede; mind power.

The first time I ever cooked a turkey, I used Paul Prudhomme's "Slow-Roasted Turkey" recipe with Cajun spices and a ton (well, 36 cloves) of garlic. It was awesome! I told my roommate it was in the kitchen and to feel free to try it. I went into the kitchen not 5 minutes later and a whole breast had been torn off of it and eaten. It looked like he went after it "no hands!" I HAD to ask him, "Who the f let the Bumpus' dogs in here?"
