Oh, yeah. Err, Jennifer, this is Eugene. Eugene, Jennifer.

Enchanted, my dear....

Yeah, right!

Jennifer, may I be brutally frank?

Sure.

You've just touched my soul.

Yuck!

Oh, I have two absolutely superlative seats to "Madame Butterfly" on Sunday - it's my favorite opera. Would you be so gracious as to accompany me?

Is he putting me on?

'fraid not.

No thanks. Okay?

Eugene? Eugene, do you mind, I'm paying you by the hour.

What is time? I've just met the mother of my children!

Eugene! I am not "your better half" and I am not "the woman in your life" so please introduce me in a normal way.

Certainly.

Oh! Ronald, Eunice, this is err, Jennifer - the old ball and chain.

So, err Eugene. Have you read Testriks' paper on "The Meaning of Man's Existence in the Universe"?

Ah, yes. That's heavy stuff! Don't you agree, Dumpling?

Oh, I don't know, Muffin-Head. The last book I read was, was "Nancy Drew a Mountain Nurse."

"Mountain Nurse" - isn't she priceless?!? Such a fresh sense of humor!

Jennifer, you're acting like a child.

Eugene, I am a child!

And you're embarrassing me in front of my peers!

Eugene listen, I'm sorry. I'm doing the best I can - this is my first Tenure Party!
