JOHNNY: How are the partygoers taking to the off-planet scene?
FRATMAN: Well, let's ask one...
JOHNNY: How do you like Mars?

#302. Greekist

October 29, 1998

BEN: Fratman, I've heard rumors you're "Greekist".

FRATMAN: That's RIDICULOUS! Some of my best FRIENDS are independents!
JOHNNY: YEAH!
FRATMAN: And I treat them as though they're completely NORMAL!
JOHNNY: YEAH! .... hey....

#303. How’d the date go?

October 30, 1998

BEN: How'd the date go?
JOHNNY: OK, but she said I talk with my hands too much.
BEN: There's nothing WRONG with talking with your hands, Johnny. It shows you're EXPRESSIVE, that you're INTO the conversation!
JOHNNY: MMM, well you COULD be right...
JOHNNY: ...but I think she was referring to my mid-meal sock puppet show...
BEN: Wow... you... WOW.
