Zitat des Tages über Alligator:
Don't taunt the alligator until after you've crossed the creek.
Every day I'd come home after school, pop the hood of my mom's car, put alligator clips on the battery, and wire into the house and go play on my computer. If I used it for too long, I'd wear down the car battery, and my mom would be all mad at me the next day.
See you later, alligator. After a while, crocodile.
I done wrestled with an alligator, I done tussled with a whale; handcuffed lightning, thrown thunder in jail; only last week, I murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalised a brick; I'm so mean I make medicine sick.

If I was good each week, my father would take me to a different pet store each Saturday. I had a snake, horny toads, turtles, lizards, rabbits, guinea pigs... I kept my alligator in the bathtub until it got too big.
Never insult an alligator until after you have crossed the river.
'Alligator' was the first record that anyone paid attention to, and it seemed like it was the screamy songs that got us that attention.
Old is when people compliment your alligator shoes, and you're not wearing any.
I have tested my nerve by reaching a little too closely toward a lengthy alligator on the Gulf Coast and a saucer-sized tarantula in a Houston car park.
