Dan's Dry Sack line killed me.

I'm not saying Falstaff doesn't have his moments. My favorite line of his (so far): "There's no more faith in thee than in a stewed prune..."

The one line of Falstaff's I've always loved is, "If I had a thousand sons, the first humane principle I should teach them would be to forswear thin potations and addict themselves to sack."

Bring on the Dry Sack, Jack!
