CHRONOLOGY

Anything To Get Out Of Scrubbing The Back Porch


After rewiring the doorbell, Fibber keeps stalling to avoid doing housework.

MOLLY: Did you scrub the back porch like I told you?

FIBBER: Ahem, the back porch? Why, uh, ahem, you see, Molly, it kind of looked like rain so, uh, well, shucks after all...

MOLLY: McGee! Did you or did you not scrub the back porch?

FIBBER: I’m glad you asked me that, Molly. You see, the back porch...

MOLLY: Did you?

FIBBER: No.
FIBBER: Say, how do you think will win the Baer-Louis fight tomorrow night, Molly?

MOLLY: How should I know? Which one of them is Irish?

FIBBER: Why, neither one.

MOLLY: Well, then what difference does it make?
FIBBER: Say, you know what’s gonna happen over there in Ethiopia? Listen, Molly, it’s just like a card game. This here Selassie feller’s got a spade flush but the Italians has got the advantage.

MOLLY: Why have they?

FIBBER: On account of the duece is wild. You get it, Molly? I says the Italians...

MOLLY: Aw, ’tain’t funny, McGee.
