I've already been mean to Carrol, don't make me smite thee Ken, you old fart. I miss Niles who only went overboard when defending himself from pompous old fools. I regret now that I didn't get involved in that discussion. Can I work old in anywhere else here? Hmmmmmmm. And please don't hide behind the skirts of Maggie K., shes a big hero of mine who I feel sure would have swatted you down weeks ago.
You, and Carrol, have a lot to teach us, me anyway, but you can't do it while you're acting like my beloved cat Monster, hissing at the hot air, the summer before he died.
Paula, who's getting old, damn it.
