Jeff

(Evil Monkey: "Hey." Jeff: "Hey! Where've you been?" Evil Monkey: "Down Under. Kicking Ben Peek's ass." Jeff: "Why the cough?" Evil Monkey: "Bastard took me out with a foot to the throat. Been recuperating." Jeff: "Sorry to hear that." Evil Monkey: "Glad I got back in time to see you turn your blog into a non-stop links celebration, btw." Jeff: "I gotta, until the blog redesign goes into effect." Evil Monkey: "If you say so." Jeff: "How was Australia otherwise?" Evil Monkey: "Australia? I didn't go to Australia. I stole a page from Constantine. I fought Ben Peek under the Gates of Hell." Jeff: "You don't say." Evil Monkey: "It's hot down there, but I made a lot of friends." Jeff: "Great!" Evil Monkey: "...and they're all coming over for a poker game on Thursday. Hope you don't mind.")
