Yes, we’re all soooo impressed that you own _Ernest Goes To Camp_, _Madea Goes To Jail_, and _Slutty Sorority Girls II: Getting The ASS-ociates Degree_. Running with a fun group tonight. ---

Yeah sure. Keep telling yourself that, after visiting them in that dump you call a nursing home. “We’re fine son,” sitting in diapers in bed 24/7, “Just… fine.” My wife went to visit our sister-in-law, who is recovering after a stroke, to give her care and encouragement. ---
