Barney, we hardly knew ye. Don' leave us Barn.
Good ol' affected Barney! And all the while he was telling us that he didn't know what was going on in his own home. I guess, he was just too busy protecting irresponsible banking practices and fixing parking tickets for the patrons visiting his house to know what was actually going on inside his house.
Let me just take this time to give a heart-felt "thanks" to the wonderful folks in Brookline and Newton, Massachusetts, for sharing Barney with the rest of the country. We hope we can repay you appropriately soon enough. Believe me, when I say, you have been generous to a fault. Truly!
