"Jennifer said what?"
 
"You heard me."
 
"Man, we aren't at all like those guys. . .are we?"
 
"Well, the more I look at you, the more you do kind of remind me of one of 'em."
 
"Roy! That's crazy. How could I look anything like a puppet?"
 
"They're muppets."
 
"Muppet. . .puppet. . .doesn't matter. How could I look like one of 'em?"
 
"Well, it's more about their personalities than anything else."
 
"Roy, I ask you . . . how can a puppet--"
 
"Muppet."
 
"Muppet. . .how can a Muppet have a personality?"
 
"Look, I don't know what you're complaining about. At least Jen pinpointed you as Ernie, the fun and easy going one that lets problems roll off his shoulders."
 
"Yeah, and the one that drives his partner nuts."
 
"Yep . . .that's true."
 
"Do I drive you nuts?"
 
"As a matter of fact, you're beginning to right now."
 
"I think I'm starting to see where she got this idea. Well, I guess there are things worse than being called the Bert and Ernie of the fire department."
 
"I'm sure there are, 'Ernie'."
 
"Cute, Roy. Real cute."
 
 
This was inspired by my daughter on the way home from school today. We were listening to a Sesame Street tape in the car and singing along when she mentioned about certain *pairs* being like Bert and Ernie. . .and you know the rest. lol
