The shrubbery one is classic "It has ceased to exist! This is an ex-parrot!" and "If I let you in, you're going to try to sell me encyclopaedias" "No ma'am, I swear, I just want to come in and steal a few things!" The whole encyclopedia salesman thing is my fave. Also... "The Larch" (with picture of tree). Ever since that, for some reason, my parents call me "The Larch" I don't get it.
