Help me remember this Hitchens line

This will probably answer your question: Who and what is that?

Quinn actually is my name. Any similarity or reference to anyone or anything else, living or dead, real or fictitious, is purely coincidental.

It's on Cartoon Network late at night (if you get cable, you have got to check it out; very funny show)

"Doctor Quentin Q. Quinn (voiced by Brett Butler) is the brains of the outfit. As the only member of the crew with any formal education and any sort of common sense left, he's the one that ends up running the station (and, in some cases, trying to keep it from exploding)."

As far as the 'plummy' accent, a friend of mine has lived here in the states for 20 years and still has a bit of Birmingham in his accent...

Since American chicks dig foreign accents, every foreign guy knows it's imperative to hang on to that little linguistic advantage. I would tell you more but then they'd kick me off the secret foreign-guy message board.

Since American chicks dig foreign accents.

Not just American chicks.

When I was in Europe, I heard from more than one woman what a wonderful accent I have. I kept thinking "No, you're the one with the accent!"

And personally, I'm a sucker for women with British accents. Probably stems from my childhood crush on Emma Peel... <sigh>
