You ever try flossing, Catherine?

“Michael, hold still so I can see myself in your fancy sunglasses. Do I have something between my teeth? I can feel it…”
“Ewwwww, Catherine! I told you not to have that spinach quiche for breakfast! Cripes! There’s a huge chunk of green stuff hanging out of your mouth!”
“Shut up! Is this it? Did I get it all?”
“Yeah, you got most of it. Looks like there’s also some gristle wedged in there from that steak you had last night.”
“You got a lot of room to talk, Michael. Get a load of that dandruff all over your sweater. You ever think about using shampoo?”
“Say, are you as turned on as I am right now, Catherine?”

Talking? Is that what they are calling it nowadays? Looks like a smooch about to happen to me. I’ve told Michael repeatedly about running around with my woman. This means war! Donut war, that is. Can someone please pass the sprinkles?
@Dave: you think you need a doughnut now? When you find out he removed the spinach with his tongue, you’ll need a plate full!
Dave – you sound like Rufus T. Firefly! Did Michael call you an upstart?
If this were any other blog I’d ask you to tell the people who Rufus T. Firefly is, but you know…
Don’t be such a Grouch, O Blog Guy!
if we are living in time when people don’t know about Rufus T. Firefly…well that’s a sure sign of the apocalypse.
Or at least a total lack of appreciation of pure comic genius.
Google to the rescue! Wait, we don’t get tased for using Google do we?
@Dave, in times of war drastic measures must sometimes be taken. If Michael won’t stop fraternizing with your woman you must teach him a lesson he won’t soon forget. You know what you must do. It won’t be pretty but war never is. Dave, let loose your goat on him!
Jeez, I hope you guys haven’t canceled any important weekend plans to make yourselves available to her…
Well, okay, just as long as it doesn’t seem like we’re pathetic…
You know, CrowGirl lives in Wales. Maybe she can teach us a few lines.
Re Rufus T. Firefly: In this film does Groucho say, “Men, let’s fight for this woman’s honour! (tap cigar, flex eyebrows) It’s more than she ever did”?
I’m keen to know because if I’m right, I’m still successfully staving off dementia.
Oh right. Like you’d be coming to this blog if you had really staved off dementia….
A most disheartening response, Mr B, but I await more merciful feedback from my blogger-buds. See, I’m so sure, but I gotta know. Otherwise, what the family’s been saying for years is true and I shouldn’t adopt my cat and make him sole beneficiary.
Rufus T firefly does indeed say it in ‘Duck Soup’ (1933)…as well as
“This is a gala day for you.”
“Well, a gal a day is enough for me. I don’t think I could handle any more.”
and
“I’ve got a good mind to join a club and beat you over the head with it.”
Standing by to be zapped….
Absolutely you should make your cat sole beneficiary Lady!
Mr B, I have a t-shirt that says
“Carwm i aros a sgwrsio, ond yn anffodus celwyddgi cymhellol dw i”. Whenever anyone asks me what it means I tell them something different. Which isn’t a bad joke, if you know what it actually means. Though sadly, Shra’s taser prevents me from telling you.
“Duck Soup” also featured one of my favorite Groucho lines: Say, you haven’t stopped talking since I got here. You must have been vaccinated wtih a phongraph needle.
@Geezer, Crowgirl, and Georgia: Thanks. Tabby sends her love.
I don’t get a vote, but I will offer up this blog item from a couple of years ago…

God I am so jealous of Douglas…
I am gonna download some Groucho Marx now… thanks for the suggestions….
AZGeezer, welcome to the club (the real one, not the primitive one)… Zapp!
I love how people accept the Zapper… brings tears to my eyes… or maybe its the smoke from the zapper… Never mind…
Just wait, Shra. One day the batteries will run out on your zapper and then, this whole blog will turn into another search engine! BWAAAHHAAAAA!!! (Just ask my friend, Watson.)
That is not going to happen CAM… MWAAHHHHHAAAAAHHHHHHAAAAHHHHHAAAAHHHHAAA A!!
Bigger and better laugh… proves my point..
Prosecutor: Something must be done! War would mean a prohibitive increase in our taxes.
Chicolini: Hey, I got an uncle lives in Taxes.
Prosecutor: No, I’m talking about taxes – money, dollars!
Chicolini: Dollars! There’s-a where my uncle lives! Dollars, Taxes!
@Spin69: I believe your question has been answered. Groucho beats Cathy by a long droopy sleeve and a cigar-length.
