I'm bitterly disappointed in Reginald, my personal assistant.

Today, I sent him to the store with a small request...Reginald, please purchase for me 3 pairs of colorful Under-Pantaloons.

He arrived back at the palace with 3 pairs of solid black Under-Pantaloons.

He claims that there has been a "run" on the colorful pairs, and the nearest substitutions were the solid black pairs.

I have a date tomorrow with a wonderful young lady. I was hoping to impress her with my fashion choices.

I had no choice but the terminate Reginald's employment immediately.

It was quite the unexpected stroke of luck that I was able to hire Niles to be my new personal assistant. He will be starting first thing in the morning, and he has forcefully assured me that he would never make such a dire shopping mistake.

Welcome aboard, Niles!

I prefer the black ones, but if someone says get the colorful ones, dammit, get the colorful ones.

And wish it to be known that they have just been sacked.

The credits have been completed in an entirely different style at great expense and at the last minute.

A Moose once bit my sister ...

That is all.
