I had not set out to have Tempus dominate the list -- He just exercised his natural propensity for taking over. And, why shouldn't he? After all, he is a darn nice guy! ;-)

Well, I like these eights:

Quote
8a) Teenaged Clark, on learning to travel Super-style: If at first you don’t succeed, fly, fly again.

8b) Martha, on cooking: If at first you don’t succeed, fry, fry again.

8c) Cat, on flirting: If at first you don’t succeed, ply, ply again.

8d) Tempus: If at first you don’t succeed, go back in time, stupid!
laugh

(Although, seeing that your list went from 10 to 1, maybe your eights should also have gone from d to a...)

My thanks to all who have posted feedback!

Evelyn, I, too, have fun imagining young Clark having to stop himself mid-taunt. (Admittedly, not very realistic -- he'd keep going to keep his secret -- but still fun to imagine.)

Ann, An interesting point about the lettering. I hadn't thought about that.

DW, Tempus does rather have a way of stealing the stage, doesn't he?

Elisabeth, Glad you liked them all. :-)

As is the case with any of my "top ten" lists, if anyone is inspired to add to the list, I would love to see what other people come up with.

Joy,
Lynn

I think I laughed the most with the Tempus and Jimmy ones laugh

So the show's most-bashed-on regular character is good for something, if only a laugh. ;-)

Thanks, Michael.

Hahahaha. Gotta say, I love the Tempus ones best! But they were all great for a chuckle!

And he really is a darn nice guy!
