Dear Auntie Roger,

Dear Auntie Roger,

My friend has a problem. She always points out the obvious. Can you help? Please?

-- Jim … called Jim

Dear … Jim,

What you should do is smack her, hire Edward to annoyingly touch her face, or have Mimi bestow your friend with many candles to light and then promptly blow them out. This could sidetrack your friend and they could forget to be Chairman Obvious.

BACK AT THE DOTDOTDOT…

Angel and Collins had boisterously entered out house. Angel was carrying a gift basket filled with assorted shower stuff.

"Zee oh em ef gee be be que!" Mark squealed, rummaging through the basket, "I HAZ FOUND RUBBER DUCKEH!"

"Good, Mark!" Angel patted the overwhelmed Jew-Boy atop his noggin.

"Um… this is mine," Mark hugged the ducky o' rubber to his torso.

"'kay," Angel smiled at Mark as if the latter were a two-year-old opening gifts on Hanukkah.

"Oh em gee. Ihavearubberduckieeee. Iamsoexcited. OH EM GEE!" Mark pranced about the apartment. Collins threw a stray rock at him.

"OOOOWWW!" Mark screeched, picking up the rock and examining it, "Whadda frick, Collins?!"

"Really, Mark, getta hold of yourself!" Collins reasoned. Philosophy teachers tend to do that a lot.

"Didja name it?!" Mark asked.

"Um… no… I dunno, call it Heinz."

"HEINZ! He and Roger can be besties!" Mark grinned.

"What?!" I put down my guitar and looked at my roommate in surprise.

"Roger is meh duckeh. I named him after you!" Mark smiled like Edward Cullen touching Bella' face or "charming" her collarbone.

"Eh… how about Doctor Ducksworth, Mark?" Angel suggested.

Mark's face lit up. He hugged the rubber bird and the object composed of 2+ minerals again.

"I HAZ A ROCK NAMED HEINZ AND A DUCKEH O' RUBBER CALLED DR. DUCKSWORTH!!" Mark trotted about the room, then disappeared into the hallway.

"You'd think he'd get by now that we don't care," Collins sighed, putting his head on his hand.

"S'kay, Pookie, Mark likes to state the obvious," Angel said.

"Did you just… Pookie?" Collins asked, confused.

Angel laughed it was good.

BACK TO THE LETTER…

So, I hoped that helped you, Mr so-called Jim. Mark does like his duckies rubber and his rocks German.
