Summary

Today’s expression and dialog: a kerfuffle What’s all the kerfuffle about? The lady in 407 has an alligator! What? That’s crazy! I know, but she says it’s her pet. Did you hear about that HUGE SCANDAL in America about the "dating website" for "married people"? Personally--I think it is hilarious. The website is for "married people" who are "BORED" with their relationship and just want "a little extra fun". Well, there was a HUGE KERFUFFLE because we now know that almost EVERY "woman" on the website was actually a MAN!!!! Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! Everyone, if you are married...be good. YOU made the choice, make your choice the RIGHT choice. Being a responsible husband/wife means you are RESPONSE ABLE...YOU make your responses. Make them good ones!! Oh, be quiet, Coach Shane!!
