The Tic is still on TV!?!?!  A super-hero blue insect with the manly
physique?  Wow, I - I mean my ex's sons - LOVE The Tic!  When they were
kids, that is; a long time ago... I haven't - I mean THEY haven't - seen
him in years.  What station, what time?  I'd love - I mean THEY'D love
to know!  Now that they're in college and have girlfriends and all that,
the one thing missing in their lives has gotta be watching The Tic!  So
I have to tell them - let me know, please, please!
