Not a problem, TAPS ... sometimes things are best left unsaid.

That wouldn't be my first choice of word, though, Le divorce.

You sure talk a lot about Stella, Offy.

Not sure, Dolls ...

However, I do recall the exterminators arriving at his house to fumigate while he was recuperating in the hospital.

A "set-up" for what, Corbin?

That's pretty much the gist of it, anyways, Pat B.

Just perhaps not in this case, FineYoungSinger.

Mademoiselle
I read both posts, but I must be slipping.  I can't think of anything to say.

You must live in a very "interesting" neighborhood...

I think Stella is a walking venus fly trap.....her mouth is always open!

Uhhhhh......
That was all a setup....wasn't it???

I woke up feeling mentally clear and alert.
But now that I've read the Lupescu post and the comments, I'm so confused!  You say a gay elephant seal sleeps on your neighbor's porch and devours insects. Now you need a goat to mow the lawn, and you're in business.

I had a boss like that!
only it was his head, not his stomach, full of termites.    I also think dialogue can be as compelling as straight text.

Actually, Dave, I'm pretty sure he's gay.

Don't know whether Mrs Lupescu is around, but you could call her Anty.

Al Molinaro/Mr. Lupescu, on the other hand, looks like an elephant seal.

posted by Mademoiselle on September 11, 2007 at 9:50 PM | link to this | reply

Don't make things worse, bandana!

Actually, you'll be pleased to know she pretty much looks like a taller, shorter-haired version of my mother.

posted by Mademoiselle on September 11, 2007 at 9:49 PM | link to this | reply

Wait! But Al Molinaro is not an attrative woman!
If I were there, your aunt would probably kill me, too.

posted by bandanafish on September 11, 2007 at 9:39 PM | link to this | reply

She's going to kill me for this, bandana.

Of course, my aunt looks absolutely nothing like Al Molinaro.

She's a very attractive woman.

Thanks for stopping by, 7stars.

Oh, how cute. So he is a bug collector!
p.s. So what are you saying? Mr. Lupescu reminds you of your aunt? I, too, apologize for my confusion.

Editor's note (part 2):

Of course, I didn't mean to suggest that my aunt reminded me of Al Molinaro. Obviously. Simply that she mentioned his resemblance to Mr. Lupescu.

Once again, I apologize for any confusion.

Well then, I suppose I did achieve what I set out to do, food4thought.

At least to some small extent.

posted by Mademoiselle on September 11, 2007 at 9:18 PM | link to this | reply

Editor's note:

My aunt just reminded me of a different character actor who bears an even greater likeness to Mr. Lupescu.

I apologize for any confusion.

You know...
It sounds like a written conversation, just before the writer reveals the odd fellow has a family of termites in his stomach!  Point well taken.
