It's pretty sad when someone goes ahead and answers his own challenge, but I just couldn't resist.

Thanks to all who visited this little fic. Hope I caught a few of you.

I knew there might be a bit of 'conflict' with Lois' internal dialog during the 'set-up' of the final punchling, but I was going to dismiss it as Lois being method in her acting. After all I did need to try and fool not only Jimmy, but the gentle readers also. But Michael did point out one line that was specifically contrary so I removed it.

Thanks again for all the kind words.
