I’m a bit like Les in that I love my simple routines. However in my younger days I was in the Navy for 20 years (still simple routines in my personal life), but I saved money, married a great guy, etc. So now I’m retired from the Navy since 1995, so is my husband, we live a simple life … but we’re very financially secure!! There’s no place like home. :)
I’m going to play devil’s advocate here. Maybe Bernice is simply SCARED. She relaxes in Luann’s company because she feels safe and accepted with her. When she has to venture into the real world she’s not quite sure how to deal with people – she’s probably been criticized and put down a lot – so she goes to her safe place – books.
For all the folks saying “let him find other accommodations”. The guy has already proven in the past that he’s irresponsible. I know lots of people who sadly “inherit” their grandchildren, nieces, nephews because the PARENTS are incompetent. I honestly think it’s going to end up someday with Jonah getting killed and Brad and Toni becoming THE PARENTS …
This has been around forever – branding. People have been asked about their interests, their hobbies, family, morning or night person, etc, etc — all the data is compiled and a list is generated about what types of work might be most suitable for them.
Is it possible that Les is gay?
