Damn, if he was calling into my radio show I could just hang up on him. Maybe if I keep ignoring him, he will go away.

Burch, confidentially: "My plan is to stand here by the side of the road until a real estate developer comes up with a plan that we can take credit for solving the housing crisis. Preferably in Paget west so we can crack the Grant Gibbon's voting block."

Acting quickly, the Colonel diverts attention away from the "re-distribution of Berkeley materials" effort.

Burch: what I really think you should recommend, is that traffic lights would be great here...
if not don't worry I am a fair man, in fact to show no hard feelings, some friends of mine are buyinga cement company and want to take me and some friends fishing next week to celebrate, I think you should come along.

The two surveyors had a hard time understanding Minister Burch as he kept breaking into Spanish during the site review. When asked why he said he was just practising for a trip he won recently to Mexico.

Ok, now this is how its going to go down, this Philip Wells character..we'll call him limey for the sake of the job is going to cross the street. You, "white hitman" are going to call his name, he'll trust you, you look like him. When you have his attention and he's looking your way 'BAM' W&E truck, wrong time, wrong place...
Ding dong limey's dead, traffic lights on a surge of public outcry, and Paula will owe me bigtime.

“So, the new traffic lights will automatically change to green if you approach them with a ‘vote PLP’ bumper sticker... excellent”

"Well I've always been fond of The Birdcage", Burch responded somewhat confused as to what the movie had to do with traffic control.

Col Burch shakes hands and converses with
his imaginary friend again. Much to the
dismay of the engineer and council member.

Agent Burch: "I hate that rag... that thing that comes out on a Friday... whatever you want to call it. I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste its stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it."

With the Ministerial salary being so low, Minister Burch was forced into street performance to help make ends meet.
Posted by Tong on 03.03.06 at 12:57
Burch: "Ok....keep the eyes peeled...we are looking for an escaped LiB. They're about this big...and come from England. Irritating things...so don't touch it if you see one".

The push to have a Madame Tousseau's museum in Bermuda quickly failed.
High rents were a factor, leading to a poor location, but the real reason was the fact that the Government stopped them from putting Burch in the "Hall of Villains".
(BTW, LostInFlatts, you beat me to it, y'bastard!)
