Lotti's contribution to the squalor debate:

I agree much more with Elaine than Newton on that issue -- Theresa the crazy Slovakian has improved my quality of life (and sanity) greatly. But given your financial restraints, I have a third option: Make cleaning a hoot by acting out your favorite scenes from Mommy Dearest! "I'm not mad at you, I'm
mad at the dirt." "You call this clean?" "Scrub, Christina, SCRUB!" ...Hours of fun.

Ummmm..... No.

And now, a note to Sunsweet: You're not fooling anyone, you know. I don't care what your PR people told you -- the whole world knows that "dried plums" are, in fact, prunes.
