A Rose by any other name wouldn't smell as sweet.

I agree that probably Clappy would have a whole lot more to add on this matter given his propensity to verbal, might I say, in a most kindly way, diarrhea.

I'll see what I can come up with.
Check back this evening.
I have a busy day today.
A lot of work to do before I attend the wedding of my good friend Ophelia Forken.

She told me she plans to combine her last name instead of dropping it.
By some crazy coincidence, the groom must be related to your friend Jack.

Her new name will be:
<Drum roll please>

O. Forken-Schitt!

<Sound of crickets chirping...>

<Clappy blows into the microphone.>

Hello? Is this thing on?

<Voltaire reaches for the Lonworks remote control and presses the number 86.>

<Wallboards begin to shift. A long hook reaches across the Porch and removes the silly stooge from the stage...>

<Polvo giggles and points at the noncomedian being dragged off. He sees it as an opportunity to jump up there and tell afew jokes of his own.>

<As Polvie nimbly attempts to hop up on the stage his toe catches the front edge and he stumbles forward unable to catch his balance. His feet continue to try to catch up with the rest of his body as bobbles his way across the entire length of it.>

<The Porchers stare in amazement as Twinkle-Toes-Polvie continues off the opposite end of the stage, over the railing into Voltaire's azalea bushes.>

<From the bottom of the dense shrubbery you can hear Polvie mumble, "O. Forken Schitt!" and a few other choice grumblings...>
