Everybody Loves Raymond Quote

[Ray is interviewing Barry Bonds.]
Barry Bonds: Excuse me, do you have change for the phone?
Ray Barone: Yeah, sure. What do you need me to break a million?
Barry Bonds: C'mon, what is it with you reporters always getting on me about my salary?
Ray Barone: It's funny, calling $7 million a salary.
Barry Bonds: What do you make?
Ray Barone: That's kind of personal.
Barry Bonds: Exactly.
Ray Barone: But what you make is news, because it's so gigantic.
Barry Bonds: What do you make, really? About, say $50,000 a year?
Ray Barone: Yeah, about that.
Barry Bonds: Okay, that's two columns a week, about eight columns a month. About $500 for every column.
Ray Barone: It is?
Barry Bonds: Yeah, it's $1 a word. For every little word like "the" and "a", if you hit the letter "a", it's $1.
Ray Barone: Heh, I guess I'm doing all right then.
Barry Bonds: You see?
Ray Barone: Yeah.
Barry Bonds: So, can I borrow a quarter for the phone?
Ray Barone: Here, take two.
