- Joe McDoakes: Sure; we can - we can be as ridiculous as anyone else! Even more so.
- 'Double Up or Drop Dead' Host: Now, for your next question: If half of the married people who get divorced are men, what are the other half?

- Joe McDoakes: I've never been a soldier. I was a senior air raid warden, though.

- Joe McDoakes: I, uh... I think I'd better quit.

- Joe McDoakes: ...Shoot the works.
