**Now, L.D., honey. I'm gonna turn this T.V. off again, cause we're gonna finish our turkey day meals first, then we can watch the game.**

L. D. NEWSOME:
**Who you callin' "honey"? Them's fightin' words, Rodeo! Choose yer weapons! **
Meryl:
FAYETTE NEWSOME:
** Oh lordy, I'm not gonna last much longer.... **
Daniel:
JACK:
%% Did I really call him "honey"? Oh, guess I did. Oh well, no helpin' it now. %%
((Jack takes a deep breath as he looks up at L.D, with his razor sharp claws pointing straight at 'em. He doesn't have anything remotely dangerous nearby, and doubts that flickin' his belt buckle would impress anybody...... Still.....))
((Jack peers at L.D. for a moment, a combination of fear and anger crossing over his features. Then he jerks up from his chair with lightning speed and pointedly speaks to L.D, suddenly remembering many years ago the elocution lessons he had taken in High School as his required elective, afore he dropped out.))
**Sir, I do not see how you were offended by my recent title of endearment for you, but I will not fight you. Not here. Not ever. You are a guest in my house, and I do not tolerate rudeness. You have no command here over the rules of my household or of my children, and if you have any respect for either human decency or a man's responsibility towards his family and his household, you will desist this savage barbarism at once!**
((Jack wrinkles his nose in distaste.))
**It is apparent that you have a strong advantage in your selection of weaponry, but that is no excuse for intolerable behavior.**
Meryl:
((After listening stone-faced to JACK's astonishing outburst of elocution, L. D. begins to show signs of an inner struggle. He tries hard not to show it.))
Daniel:
JACK:
((Jack sits down uneasily, wary of L.D.'s prideful presence. He breathes a heavy sigh and thinks hard for a moment, trying to release all the mental energy he had to build up to do that.))
**Come on, L.D., we eatin' Turkey er what.... ya got the only carvin' knives in the house. If ya don't wanna carve anymore, 'll be glad to do it seein' as how I'm host and all, but ya gotta bring yer dern hands closer so I can use 'em.**
