I can barely think of that episode, the only whole one I have ever seen, without nearly laughing out loud.

Those guys have done some funny work...never in a million years would I have ever thought I would say that, but there you are!

Goodness, this may explain why people were not blabber mouths and attention whores back then. Keep your head down and shut the heck up!

I understand it was easy for men to have their wives institutionalized. What an oppressive life.

“I once got licked in the butt (by a racehorse)...”

That had better be a typo... FReepers don’t cotton to that kind of thing much, especially not with animals :)

LOL! Can't imagine a worse one!

Actually, I can think of a few. As someone mentioned earlier, involving the word "duck", the letters D and F are right next to each other on the keyboard, as are I and U. ("Duck Hunters" could make for a very embarrassing typo if one were to hit the "i" instead of the "u" in the first word!). Bottom line, must be very careful typing without reading glasses on. :)

K-icked, L-icked.

Mea culpa. 1001 apologies. I knew that you had already explained that it was a most unfortunate and innoportune “typo”. I just couldn’t stop myself. Another pitfall of using a keyboard is hitting “send”.

No need. Would have jumped on it myself. :)
