That Sucker Nearly Hit Me

 

Norm takes a champagne cork to the forehead on his birthday in "Diane Meets Mom." I had a sparkling wine cork that would not come out and my thumb was bleeding when I got it open. No other casualties.

I had been watching later season Cheers on Pluto from 10 pm to midnight and now they've changed it up.

Since That Time, Norm, I've Never Feared Death

 

Cheers season 3, ep. 15, "King of the Hill." We hear this one snippet of conversation between Cliff and Norm at the bar as Sam and Diane have a ping pong marathon in the back room. We never do find out why Cliff never feared death.

Shrimp Remoulade

 

One of the last Louisiana dishes in the Kinja archive. In the Cheers episode I am watching now (Fools and Their Money) Diane makes fun of Frasier for mispronouncing the word remoulade. "Diane, I am fed up with the remoulade incident!" A cold Creole appetizer and remoulade itself is a mayo based sauce.

Gladiator Film Festival at the Majestic

 

Cheers "Abnormal Psychology" cold open. Woody wants to go fishing. I never noticed the Latin phrase Norm uses. I've used it myself here. I got it from Philip K. Dick. De gustibus non est disputandum. Although Norm left out the "est." In matters of taste there can be no dispute. IMDb has it in the trivia section below.

Does Anyone Know Anything About Plumbing?

 

Well, the Romans had an elaborate system of aqueducts, there, Sammy. They were sort of the forerunners of...

Cliff, Cliff, I need someone to help me fix the plumbing.

Oh, hey, sorry, Sammy. Strictly theory.

What I Can't Fathom is How One Can Drink Ice-Cold Beer in Freezing Weather?

 

Five bucks says he does, ten says it's a doozy. Cheers season one, ep. 9. Coach Returns to Action. There used to be a Gif of Sam sliding the beer down the bar as Norm takes a seat but I can't find it.
