Paige: Shoot. I forgot to check my calendar! Jason: What for? Paige: I told Nicole I'd meet her for ice cream, but I'm already doing afternoon ice cream with Eliza. Curse these busy summer days! Jason: What you need is a personal secretary. And what I need is a mouth that stays shut. Paige: Now remember, if a boy calls, you write the message in triplicate and page me.

LOL Brilliant! Even coming from this male (seeing as I have only an older brother, I never did that for him… when a girl calls for him that is).

I don’t get why he’s at least not trying to make it a paid position (hey, if you’re going to stick your foot in your mouth, Jason, you might as well make the best of it!)

I remember getting a little PDA from a Honeycomb box when I was 12. Alarm clock, notepad, calendar-years before I got my first smartphone. I have no need to simply schedule for a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Strawberry Cheesecake, I’ll just go and get one.

And how much will you pay him to get it RIGHT? You know how much he screws you for free. ;-)
