They tend to take it in turns to do something outlandish while the other's distracted, don't they? <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Ozy's "outlandish" actions usually result in just an empty bowl of popcorn and a water balloon once. What i'm wondering is where Millie found shoes to fit Ozy.

It's funny, but I'm always bothered when I don't immediately realize that the last frame has nothing to do with what was said for the first three. It makes me feel like I'm getting only part of the joke, and when I wise up, I'm disappointed. Even when the actual joke is good.

Well, Ozy mentioned that you can tell alot about people by what they keep around. What can we gleam from the fact that Ozy must keep fitting shows around?

I nearly fell off my chair laughing when I saw that while at work (and that would have been quite a feat, since I was standing over a puter reading it.)<br><br>But, I still loved it, and bookmarked it.

I think it was Millie that kept the shoes around. She has a knack for bringing stuff, such as her world domination notes or mattress tag-cutting scissors, at the first opportunity.
