During the course of the evening, we meet an East Indian man. He complains to us about his eating disorder. Later, we converse with a young man sporting the largest Mohawk haircut we have ever seen. One can only encounter such people when going about town with Oscar.
We return to The Sack at about 10 p.m. and recline on my porch with refreshments. Although it is Oscar's birthday, this will be a low key affair. Oscar has several high key affairs coming up, so he claims he is "conserving himself".

Next weekend, Oscar will travel to Moncton to attend the Rolling Stones concert. Outside of owning a "helper monkey", seeing The Stones is one of Oscar's greatest aspirations.
The following weekend, Oscar will depart for France. It is a work-related gig. Going to France was previously a great aspiration. But, this will be his second visit.
Very soon, owning a "helper monkey" will become Oscar's main focal point.

I have not attended a Rolling Stones concert, nor do I plan to. I have not been to France, either and, quite frankly, do not plan to go.
But, if someone paid for me to go to France, I would go.
My position on The Stones, however, is steadfast.

Back on the porch, we are soon joined by Little Doug. He is our first guest of the evening. Because of this, he is directed to the Muskoka chair. Some people would also call it an Adirondack chair. This is where guests on the show typically sit.
***
We ask him if he has brought 'clips' from any new movies he might be starring in. He has no idea what we are talking about.
Oscar can make Little Doug laugh to the brink of urination. Ultimately, this is what leads Little Doug to conclude his appearance on the show.

Soon, Computer Doug makes a rare guest appearance. It is just past eleven o'clock. He tells us that intensive negotiations with his children have enjoyed a breakthrough. They have agreed to go to bed.
Computer Doug's appearance on the show lasts for two beers. For him, this is an indepth interview length of time to be on the show. We surmise that Computer Doug is under a lot of stress right now. He does not bring any 'clips' with him, either.
***
Our final guests are Daisy, Little Doug's daughter and her prospective husband, Weed. Though it is approaching the midnight hour, they are preparing to venture out of The Sack in search of fast food. They review possible destinations with us.
We forget to ask if they brought any 'clips' with them.
***
The talk of food sends us to our homes. We say good night to the silent Sack and begin to inspect the contents of our respective refrigerators. For tonight, the show is over.
