I reported it for you. A good Randy Episode, I love the changing scenes of him in all different garb and the boombox playing. The girl friend was the star of Strangers with Candy I think. It was kind of a goofy episode, but many funny parts. The Punk rock garb, reminded me of one of his role in Butterfly Effect. Jim ---

Cat excersising… I love it. Especially the giant Pillow with Randy’s name stitched on it. “Your Mustache is too big for your face!” ---

Okay, last week was the helium-sucking and then singing “We represent the Lollipop Guild,” this week it was singing along with Cyndi Lauper’s _Time After Time_. That’s two weeks in a row I thought I was going to pee my pants. ---

Tee hee, when they kicked Randy off the bed and then you heard him whisper from the floor _“time after time”_, I went hysterical! That, and Darnell making Earl look into the kitty’s eyes. Awww. ---

Joy didn’t kick Randy off any old bed, it was a waterbed! ---

At the cat show: “The cat is supposed to go through the cones.” When Randy’s girl says she’s just like the Cat Lady and Randy says, “No you’re not. You don’t go to sleep and let cats pee on you.” ---

Can anyone remember exactly what Randy said when the cat was purring…something like it was making that “I like you” or “I’m happy” noise? I remember it was ultra cute but I can’t remember the wording. ---
