**The one Steve** : “Never mind, Fritz, we have other seagoing vertebrates to fricassee!” \*\*The other Steve \*\*(while watching a Frankenstein movie): "How do you know they’re _townspeople_?! They might be _ **village folk!** _ \*\*Alexander \*\*(to a cop, who was urging him to rat on somebody named Sandy, and who had Not Figured It Out): “Wherever I go, Sandy will find me.” **Jeff:** “It’s a thin line, between pole and bait.” That is all. ---

So how many exes have you had? Did any of them say normal things? Glad you didn’t stick with the one that was withholding information from the cops (Sandy probably found him by now… glad you weren’t caught in the crossfire) (or kidnapped for revenge… by the infamous Sandy!) ---

Did you date anyone with an interesting _name_? ---

No, no --think about it-- Alexander _ **WAS** _ “Sandy.” They were trying to get him to inform on the infamous Sandy, not realizing that Sandy was sitting right there in front of them. “Oh no, Officer, I just couldn’t do that … _wherever I go, Sandy will find me_!” I can’t recall too many normal conversations with any of them, now that you ask. I don’t date that kind of guy. 🙂 As for interesting names, hmmmm … I dated a guy for a minute called “Buckets.” (he was not a walrus.) One called “Oz.” One called “Blue.” A Lance; a Bryce; a guy called “Rex Probe.” How’s that? ---

Bruce: You can pick your friends, you can pick your nose - but you can’t wipe your friends off on the couch. Torvald (at 2 a.m.): Want to come over and see my stereo? (It wasn’t funny to him, but it was hilarious to me.) ---
