Nu? You falling down on the job?

Sugarmama, Lonnie Bumpus Jones is a voice character of local radio talkshow guy Kurt Kilpatrick, along with The Senator, Red Wood,and Uncle Mac. Lonnie is a rather large man with a Luther Vandross voice and a Ruben Studdard physique. He dearly love his Kripsy Kreme donuts.

Now, Skinnydan, I'm doing the best I can with the free doughnuts--the ponies and ice cream might have to wait a bit.

I'm beginning to wonder if we'll EVER see any free ice cream. And ponies.

You wouldn't be pulling a fast one here, now, wouldja? (And yes, I know there is no Santa Clause - he doesn't stop by the Hebrew neighborhoods that often anyway)

You wound me, sir! Was I not the one who made sure everyone on the team got brand new shoelaces for their softball cleats!? Did I not give everyone a brand new pencil for Arbor Day?! I give and GIVE, and all you people want is MORE! MORE!

Just more ponies and ice cream.

::sigh:: Fine. When the ice cream truck comes around today, I'll get everyone something. And I have a whole package of My Little Pony stickers I got from the Dollar Tree for each one of you.
