All events occur in real time.
OK… Doug and I are hooked. (Apparently, we’re not the only ones!)
This fall, we caught a repeat episode of Fox’s hit show “24″ and made a pact to watch all 4 seasons before season 5 began in January. With 24 hour-long episodes per season, we had some catching up to do! Well, we’re almost done! We have just 4 more episodes of season 4 left to watch, then we can watch season 5 like everyone else. I told my mom about the show, and now my parents are hooked on 24, too! The first 10 minutes of season 5 will get anyone hooked!! This show is a cliffhanger at each commercial break, so it’s wise to record it and then skip the commercials!
Here’s our Top Ten list of the best Jack Bauer quotes:
10. “You’re a good liar, but I’ve seen better.”
9. “Do you trust me?”
8. “You have no idea how far I’m willing to go to acquire your cooperation.”
7. “Who are you working for?!!!!”
6. “I AM your lawyer, son.”
5. “It’s been an honor, Mr. President.”
4. “We’re gonna need a hacksaw.”
3. “All events occur in real time.”
2. “Dammmmmit!”
1. “I’m Federal Agent Jack Bauer, and today is the longest day of my life.”

I love, love, love this show. It’s addictive. I lose sleep trying to watch it. It’s so bad that I have to wait until it comes out on DVD so I can watch it all in one Bauer Binge.
Speaking of binging, that brings me to my favorite quote AND a 24 themed drinking game. The favorite quote is “Now.” He says it all the time in his gutteral growl. The game is to take a shot every time he says it. Most episodes, you’ll be drunk by the end.
Later.
As Doug knows, I’m majorly hooked on this show, too! A few other favorite Jack quotes:
“I can’t take that chance!”
“If you don’t tell me what I want to know, then it’ll just be a question of how much you want it to hurt.”
“The only reason that you’re conscious right now is because I don’t want to carry you.”
What about all these winners?
“For all your hatred of this country, you don’t understand it very well”
“You probably don’t think I can force this towel down your throat.. believe me, I can. Except I’d hold on to this little bit here. And when your stomach starts to digest it, I pull it out, taking your stomach lining with it. Most people take about a week to die. It’s very painful”
“Mr. President, it’s been an honor”
“WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR!?!?!?”
“You’re not under arrest.. you’re being taken for interrogation by an agent of a foreign government; your constitutional rights no longer apply!”
