Eh, where’s the Jack Daniels, the whip cream, the Galapagos turtle with garters and the almost new honkey-tonk piano?

Stoopid drivers can’t even pack their truck right.

Hey, back off, or I’ll use my near-unconcious body to trip you!

Audrey: Yes, I think you win, now show him what happens to those who put a steady stream of water in between themselves and electric-woman.

Now then, once you’re done with the twerp, care for a drink?

Wow, now this was worth whatever money I paid to get in 🙂

Bartender! Pick yourself up off the floor this moment and fetch Audrey a Coke. Now; I don’t care if you’ve been assaulted by every third person in the room.

Audrey, dear, give em what for–there’s a chair and a cold drink waiting for you when you’re done. 😉

Of course it’s non-alcohol-imbued Coke. Even if you weren’t allergic, we couldn’t have you drunk and firing off bolts all over the room…

Now give em what for!
