Did anybody watch the president's budget talk last night?

OTHERS
No.

MANDY
This country is unbelievable, as if the Clinton administration wasn't enough of a joke, it's followed up by a fiasco of an election and now the new leader of the free world is quoting cartoon characters? In England our leaders quote intellectuals and scholars and this clown quotes Yogi Bear!

CHRIS
He quoted Yogi Bear?

MANDY
Yes, can you believe that?

OTHERS
(General sniggering about George W. Bush and the state of the nation)

JEFF
Wait a minute. What was the quote anyway?

MANDY
I don't know, something like "when you come to the fork in the road, eat it".

(Short silence)

JEFF
Are you sure it wasn't Yogi Berra, "When you come to a fork in the road, take it"?

(Uncomfortable silence)

MANDY
Could be. Who is Yogi Berra?
