Well that is pretty fast considering it's still over the speed limit in a lot of places. And this is that was the '30s.

[tomswift2002]

60-70 miles an hour, that's about 110-120 Kilometers per hour, right?

[SDLagent]

That's 100-110 I think. Could be wrong, though.

this is from Casefiles #13 "The Borgia Dagger" when Tessa ran out of the house when Joe is supposed to be gaurding her and he is trying to explain to Frank what happened while Tessa's bf Harley fumes in the background :

" 'You lost her!' Frank said. 'Well, it's a little more complicated than that' Joe said. 'You know, a guy tries to be on his best behavior, tries to be the ideal body gaurd, right? He keeps quiet, does his job, and then decides to make conversation-asks a dumb, innocent, friendly question-'
Frank crossed his arms. 'What did you ask her Joe?'
'Well, I was reading Personality magazine and I got to thinking about the actors in the movies- you know, the ones who have to do those kisses in close-up? Well I realized those people probably don't even know eachother-'
'I don't believe this,' Frank said rolling his eyes. 'get to the point Joe!'
Joe lowered his head. 'All I did was ask how she would feel kissing a perfect stranger-'
'What?' Harley bellowed. Joe protested, 'She didn't even give me a chance to-'
'Cool it you guys' Frank said. 'Go on Joe, what did she do after this 'innocent, friendly' question?' 'Well, she gave me a look, ran outside, and drove away.'"

this was the best part in the whole book

[Olivia]

I changed the bad guys? names so it doesn?t spoil anyone.

This is from Casefile #17: The Number File.

The Hardys used a sheet torn into strips to tie their prisoner?s hands behind his back, and when Smith regained consciousness, they began questioning him.

?How many more of you are there?? Frank asked the stocky man.

?There?s just me. My mother didn?t want no more children,? he answered.

?I can see why,? Joe told him. ?But I want to know about your gang. Are there are more of you on the ship besides you and Jones??

?Will I get a shorter sentence if I tell you??

?Yeah,? Joe said sarcastically. ?We promise we won?t use sentences with more than six words.?

This is from Web Of Horror, page 27:

"Oh, yeah?" Paula sounded unconvinced.  "So your being in the film has nothing to do with Andrew Warmouth's murder?"

"No," Joe said.  "Katz just needed some extra bodies.  Besides, we leave murder investigations to the police."

[Ashiru]

ok i got some

from Club Dread:
from Joes point of view
"I woke up from the strangest dream. In it , I was a little kid, and my dad was carrying me to bed. But my bed was one of those carts you use to move food in a restauran, and my dad was Matthias Dunstock. Nightmare!"

"Okay!" I said. "I'll tell you everything. Just stop! Your breath is killing me."

from Franks point of view
"I think the ball is laughing at us," Nancy said.
"It's just intimidated by my natural athletic ability," Joe said, winking at Bess.
George came up behind him and easily dunked him underwater.
"Your natural what?" she said.

I got one from Danger Overseas:
 
Joe: "Slaves. We're slaves in our own house!"
Frank: "Joe?"
Joe: "What?"
Frank: "Shut up."

-and-

Frank: "I guess Joe is right."
Joe: "A first! Frank Hardy admits Joe is correct!"

hpe that helps!       

[Kerin]

Lol!  Those are good ones!

Up above, the cellar door suddenly slammed open. Joe jumped and lost his precarious hold on the file. It tinkled as it hit the floor, but the noise was lost as Fellawi skipped down the stairs.

"I forgot to turn off the soldering iron," he said, shaking his head. "Very bad habit. Dangerous."

He unplugged the tool, brought it back into the private office, then started up the stairs again.

"I don't believe this guy," Frank said. "He sets things up to fry us with an atom bomb, then worries about the dangers of electrical fires. Unbelievable!"

Ha ha that part cracked me up when I read it.

Here's one from Double Deception:
Emily: "It will take all my best acting skills to act like I'm in love with Justin."
"You'll do great," I said. "You always do."
I watched her walk away. Frank punched my arm. "What?" I asked.
"So out of your league," he teased.
"Hey, a guy can dream, can't he?"
(Ha ha, Joe)
