BETTY AND EARL

Betty meets the Earl of Sandwich who explains his life

Earl: I did indeed kill a few people, but only a few thousand

Betty: So we talk about justified killing

Earl: Yes indeed. At the time I was young and somewhat explosive

Betty: Right, I believe you were about 8 years old when you first started exploding?

Earl: I was 8 years old when I exploded about every 5 minutes. After that it speeded up to every 5 seconds

Betty: And then, after more than a million explosions you got letters from people saying they wanted you to stop

Earl: Yes. And I did. I went into black mailing, corrupting and gambling to relax a little

Betty: And how do you feel now?

Earl: Well, I am quite nervous still. At the moment I feel something trembling in my pocket although that could be my mobile phone

Betty: Do you ever loose?

Earl: Good question...well, sometimes when I get tired of saying 'thank you for the money', I deliberately loose a game for not having to say anything

Betty: How amiable-

Earl: I am indeed of a very fine and noble character

Betty: Want a sandwich?

Earl: I'd love to, thank you

Betty: No thank you

Earl: What are you thanking me for?

Betty: I wasn't

Earl: Are you taking the mickey?

Betty: No no, we are just eating sandwiches now, please take one

Earl: Ah, a biggie, thank you

Betty: No, thank you

(silence)

Earl: I feel a little suspicious Betty

Betty: oops...all right then...cheerio!
