Theodor: Of course I will capture her live. Isn’t it a foregone conclusion? Theodor: Perhaps I need to reevaluate my conclusions.

Tina (on phone): No, Honey, everything here is perfectly fine. Yes, I’ve had some problems with the roommate. He makes me quite frazzled, but frankly, he’s head over heals for me. So, when are you coming home?

Theodor (talking to his lab partner via phone): I know it’s taking a long time. She’s more cunning than I anticipated. Every time I think I have her cornered, she managed to elude me. Lab Partner: Does it have to be this particular sample? Surely we can find other simian of the same caliber. Theodor: No, no. It has to be her. She has could be the missing link. Perfect for our genome experiments. I believe this because she has […]
Theodore: Come to the lab with me, my sweet. I’ll treat you with great respect. I’ll provide all necessary accommodations, twenty-four hour security, the most cutting edge equipment…. Tina: Equipment?! Theodore: Yes, of course. Autoclave, DNA sequencer, hematology analyzer, P CR extraction system; I have only the best. Tina: I’ll never let you take me. I’m warning you, I know jujitsu and a bunch of other stuff. You can’t touch me. Theodore: Yes, yes. I know I can’t hold a […]
Theodor (talking on his cell phone): Yes, I have found the perfect specimen! She has lovely red hair, and a perfect figure. She’s a bit old, but that doesn’t really bother me. I must have her before some other scientist gets a hold of her. Caller: Blah, blah, blah (Like the adults in Peanuts.) Theodor: What will I do? Put a ring on it, of course.

Tina: Now that my glob trotting daughter and her good for nothing husband are away, I can do as I please. I think I’ll call in the painters first, and get some color on these walls. Then I’ll remodel the kitchen. I’ll change the shape. After that I’ll have gardeners come and turn that back yard into a big, giant…
Tina: So nice to be back where I belong. Things are going to be different this time, I tell you. I think we should start by re-arranging the dishes in your cupboards. I find them inconvenient. Then we’ll tackle the room mate issues. Hey, where are you going? Jill: Outer Mongolia. We’ll be back in a month. Good luck with the room mate.

Tina: So you see, this meteor is a sign from heaven. It came right as I was saying I would only move in with you again if one fell, and no one can move it, and you can see it makes a terrible coffee table. Whether I like it or not, I must move in with you again. Jack, why don’t you have some more tea? I’m sure it’ll settle your never. Gertrude: Jack? What do you think? Jill: I […]
Jill: So Mom says if we can’t get rid of this rock then she’ll move back in with us. It looks heavy. Jack: It is heavy. I think it’ll take a crane to move it. Jill: I have just the thing.
Tina: So you see, I’m going to disown my daughter completely. No more visiting, and I certainly won’t try to live with her again. I much prefer to be with you, my dear, beloved sister. Gertrude: You sure you aren’t going to change your mind and move out again? Tina: It would take a meteor through the roof to make me move out. From overhead: CRASH!!!! BOOM!!!

Jill: I can never remember if it goes forward or backward. Jack: It’s the solstice, not daylight savings time. Jill: No, no. I mean the new official time for posting Jack and Jill. It’s supposed to be NOON, Mountain Standard Time on Saturdays. Jack: Ah, right. So Alice can catch the morning Light. Jill: Exactly.

Jack: What’s wrong? Isn’t our new computer working? Jill: The sales guy said it should boot right up, but I can’t turn it on at all.
Gertrude: I understand your feelings, Tina. I mean, that guy really is kind of creepy, but what can you do? Tina: Don’t worry about it. I’ve got it covered. Gertrude: What do you mean? And what are you doing? Tina: Isn’t it obvious? It’s voodoo.
