    What is with the communication in that family? Can’t you just say “Nothing’s wrong! I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you!”?

    Has Abby ever learned what Len paid for the woodchuck?

    Maybe he learned about women and marriage from watching old sitcom reruns, where wives tried to get out of trouble or get something from husbands by uncharacteristic amounts of sweet-talk or flattery (said husbands — sometimes not the sharpest crayons in the box — usually didn’t fall for it, thus generating the laughs). I recall Alice Kramden trying to soften up Ralph in an effort to get him to shell out for a TV set. And Ricky was immediately suspicious of Lucy when she got all lovey-dovey with him; turned out all she wanted to tell him was that they were having a baby. Etc., etc.
