- So what *have* you done for Adrienne lately? Nothing that I can see, except
- to make a complete ass of yourself -- but then, you're doing that for all of
- us, so I don't think Adrienne should be singled out for that honor. What
- you've tried to do *TO* her, on the other hand, is something she's best
- suited to answer -- and it provides a large part of the reason for why I
- hold you in about the same esteem as I would any bug I found in our
- apartment...
