Transcript:
There's that stupid Mary Beth Connoaly. She didn't call me once all summer. Did you call her? Whose side are you on? New boyfriend? Here. I have the handbook for you.
When you’ve got to randomly assign names to off-panel characters, where do you get them? In this case, you take the name of a local TV morning personality, use a variant of first and last names… boom. You don’t have to make one up. Ain’t that right, Tondalaya Dellaventemiglia?
So Greg, I like this arc. In a way it brings back some old memories?… and yes, I could have used this in high school, … college…and probably could still use it.

I’m starting to think the name of the next Buckets book should be ’Don’t be Stupid."
