- "Thanks Frank, but I think we'll go with Kate's proposal this time." Frank screamed & pounded on the table. "No, mine! mine mine mine!" He tore up his meeting minutes, dropped

- Kate held an emergency board meeting while Frank yelped at the door. They considered Frank's offer of a chewed slipper in return for absolute control of her sausage company. Kate
