    Why is Burl listening in to someone whispering, anyhow? He deserves to get sick! And Jerry’s ‘romantic poetry’ doubles as saying grace in his household.

    The sap has hopes. Burl’s hopes died long ago. (As did his memory.) And except for Verla’s exceptionally low standards, so should Jerry’s.

    Now, now. Don’t be snippy. Jerry’s very romantic. How else do you think he keeps a hottie like Verla? He’s considerate. He would never, for instance, allow her to be embarrassed by forgetting his birthday. He always boosts her self-esteem by allowing her to pay for meals, and he never orders anything that’s more than ten dollars more than her meal. There’s more to his poem, too:

    Rub-a-dub-dub;Thanks for the grub.Grub-a-dub-dub;Let’s hit the hot tub.Blub-a-blub-blub;I’ll pretend to be a sub.Hub-a-hub-hub;And you can give it a rub.

    Joy’s so jealous. Burl’s not a poet. But he is a philosopher. He asks the age-old questions, like, “What smells?” “How many HoHo’s must a man wolf down?” and “Why is this chair sticky?” He’s a good provider, though. She’ll never want for sticky notes and numbered key rings..

    Young Ovid is about to be on the receiving end of a Tony Soprano take-off-your-hat type visit from Burl.
