Classic Fibber McGee

Don Quinn, who wrote the Fibber McGee and Molly radio show, came up with some lines that have become classics.  "Don't open the hall closet,"  as everything tumbles out of it. And "Hello? Oh is that your Myrt " as Fibber asks the operator how's every little thing.  "Tain't funny, McGee" from Molly when fibber does a dumb joke.  "That an't the way I heeerd it" from the "Old timer" character, played by Bill Thompson.  He was also Wallace Wimple who spoke of "My big old wife, Sweety Face."
