You don't need to diet, She-Body. You are a just-right female. McNab? Eve said. Yes, sir. Shut up. It's all right, Dallas. We're a couple. A couple of what? No, don't tell me. Don't talk to me. Don't talk to each other. Let there be silence across the land.

Nora Roberts
Okay. Look, why don't you take care of the half a million things you've been letting dangle in Roarke's Empire of Everything? Catchy title. I may use it one day.
