Blackadder takes up a newspaper and begins to read aloud:

" Situations Vacant: Mr. and Mrs Pitt are looking for a baby-minder to take Pitt the Younger to Parliament. . ."

2. Blackadder continues

reading:

"Oh, here's a foreign opportunity: Treacherous, malicious unprincipled cad, preferably non-smoker, wanted to be King of Sardinia. No timewasters, please. Napoleon Bonaparte, P. O. Box 1, Paris."

7. Why is that the US has no toast racks?

I've never seen them anywhere here. I like toast racks and towel warmers and you can find towel warmers here now. Hmm, maybe Williams-Sonoma would have toast racks. . . Ta!

6. Not me. Just a relative.

"That's the spirit, George. If nothing else works, then a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through."
