Lieberman Katz Agency Merger...

Dolores,
I'm interested in a potential merger, but I have a few concerns. I was looking at your roster of talent and you have a number of Hefty Children. All you really need are 2 Hefty boys and girls who can play 7 - 11 and 13 - 18. Pick out your best 2 fat kids and let the rest go.
On a completely different note, I think I saw Murray selling cheeses at Murray's Cheese shop in the Village! He's put on a lot of weight, so you're really better off without him. All that brie.... I have a great man for you! He's the lead producer on the Pull-Ups campaign! Twice divorced, but handsome as hell! He looks like John Malkovich with more hair! He's looking for a Member of the Tribe! I've scoped out the scene and is always at the Carnegie Deli for pastrami on Monday nights! Let's bump into him - wear the pantsuit - it's slimming.
