Thanks for coming by, friend, on Friday to 13th of all days.

You know, if there's one night you're going to get bit by a cotton mouth or feed your toe to a snapping turtle,

it's going to be tonight, and you still

trudge your ass out here to see me. I'm touched. Yes, Chester, worse things could happen. And if

they do, you can forget about pancakes in the morning. You hear? Now, he won't hurt you. Just being a smart ass, as usual. Come on in, friend.

Nothing but trouble out here. Hmm. Oh yes, that's better. And while we're at it.

Ooh, better pace myself. And while we're at it,

better pace myself.
