ANDY'S COLLEAGUE: So what did you get up to over the weekend, Andy?

ANDY: Umm... [racking his brain] I saved some broccoli from being eaten?

His colleagues stare blankly at him.

ANDY: By snails.

ANDY'S COLLEAGUES: Oh.

ANDY: They’re like Napoleon at battle, they’ve got military finesse, honestly! They've got a one-track mind and all they want is my broccoli…

dry spell

CASSY: *gasp* Andy, the last post is dated July 26!
ANDY: [gravely] I know.
CASSY: That's three solid months without a word, without a peep--
ANDY: [indignant] Hey, I've been peeping, oright? You just haven't been posting!

what's for lunch?

"Serendipity" a la Andy
