In an attempt to keep Perry's character real, I've started a list of phrases he says which are uniquely Perry. (My problem is that I get sucked into the show when I'm watching and often forget to write them down).

I'm looking for phrases only used on LnC and not in any other Superman canon.

I've selfishly decided to share them with you, in the hopes others will add to this list because I know there are more out there:

1. Judas Priest!
2. Great shades of Elvis!
3. What in Sam Hill is going on here?
4. Did you ever try to milk a steer?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

5. What are you all standing around for? This is a newsroom not ... (happy hour at the Holiday Inn/Buckingham Palace/etc)

6. I'm not the editor of a major newspaper because I can yodel.

7. Honey, there'll always be another headless corpse. Love comes maybe once.

These obviously aren't catch phrases, but they are definitely uniquely (L&C;s version of) Perry.

Joy,
Lynn

8. This is the Daily Planet, not the Wehauken Gazette.

9. Son, if you want to know about women, you better listen to the Cornel.

10. Hell of a way to run a railroad.

"By the by..."

Like horns on a June bug.(Individual Responsibility)

You been sniffin' lanotype? This is a newspaper - it's catastrophe or atrophy. (We Have a Lot to Talk About)

Hey, what is this, a rock garden? (Through a Glass, Darkly)

Faster than you can say 'trout almondine'. (Through a Glass, Darkly)

What is this, a wax museum?! (Super Mann)

I've been around long enough to tell snakeoil from Shinola (Oedipus Wrecks)

This cockamamie calamity train has gotta _stop_! (Oedipus Wrecks)

Your job isn't going to be worth the sweat off an Elvis imitator if you're dead. (Witness)

Phony as a lock of Elvis's hair from a Memphis souvenir shop. (Strange Visitor)

I'd say that anything with Elvis, Priscilla and/or the Colonel will do. Just make them up as you go.

It's raining AND pouring.

"If it talks like a duck, quacks like a duck, tastes good with plum sauce" (Lois uses the duck analogy, but not the plum sauce bit. Interestingly they are both wrong. Lois saying SM is human, Perry saying that the child in "Chip Off the Old Clark" is SM's).

I remember Perry saying this, I just didn't recall the context. Interesting.

When Lois uses the "duck" analogy in Strange Visitor, she's not saying SM is human, but that he's clearly *not* from Earth. It's during her conversation with Trask and in response to her inquiry of whether SM was from outer space.
