Drabble by Kevin Fagan for May 01, 2023

scratch my comment from yesterday, now THAT was something i did NOT expect.

The manipulative sex

I knew it was a set up!

Ahhhhhhh! Well that answers that!

Good for Echo!

See my comment from April 26.

Norm is lucky. Echo is cunning.

Women have a thousand resources, as always.

Ok, I can’t remember who called it in the beginning, but boy did they call it! Didn’t see that coming. Well played, you two! I salute you!

I’m trying to figure out how they know each other…

So Echo’s ambition is to be a babysitter?

Shoot! Now his competition’s gone, Norm can go back to his old behavior. (What, Echo? I don’t remember saying THAT!)

now wait a minute here!?

I hope Echo has him on retainer.

Nicely played.

and we boys used to wonder what the girls were whispering and giggling about…until it was too late.

nicely played

will the next time we “see” Neil be when Norman gets “cold feet” at his and Echo’s wedding? – only the grains of sand falling through the hourglass will tell.

When Echo and Norm met, I thought they were attracted because she was (almost) as dumb as he is. She’s not that way any more.

When Echo thought she had lost her appeal,She turned to Norm’s good friend Neil. Neil played the role of a creep,Now Norm is really in deep.SFANID

Many readers guessed it was a set up. Makes sense.

Ruse confirmed.

a-Ha.

Wow, she’s smarter than I thought!

Another devious woman getting what she wanted in the first place.

THAT’S NOT FAIR!
