They Say What They Say

1. All of Casey's towels are green. When he and Lisa were first married they had green towels because it was the only colour that went with the ugly tiles in their bathroom. Lisa, however, hates green and when they got divorced Casey inherited the green towels. Now he always buys green towels just because he knows it will annoy Lisa whenever she has to use his bathroom.

2. When he goes out for dinner Casey always orders beer or spirits because he feels uncomfortable ordering wine. Not because he doesn't enjoy drinking wine, because he does, it's just that he doesn't get things like grape varieties and vintages and the difference between a shiraz and a cabernet. Dan, on the other hand, seems to know more than is necessary about wine so whenever they dine out together Casey always makes him order the drinks.

3. When he was three, Casey's favourite colour was pink because that was his big sister's favourite colour and at three, his big sister was also his best friend. His mom, however, drew the line at letting him paint his room pink because that was really taking the whole thing a bit too far.

Hope the rest of the day speeds by for you. God know's mine went at a snail's pace :~\

1. Tucked away in a box hidden at the bottom of a closet is a photo of Duck taken in Toronto when he was twenty one. His mohawk is purple, he's wearing the tightest black jeans known to man and a safety pin serves as an earring in his left ear. The punk scene had been alive and kicking back then and he loved every minute of it.

2. Duck had wanted to go to art school, but a) his parents couldn't afford to send him to college, and b) he was afraid his work wasn't good enough to get him a scholarship so he never applied for any. He often regrets that he didn't now.

3. He likes Brussels sprouts, but beets make him want to throw up.

1. Josh has a collection of notes that Donna has given to him over the years hidden away in a shoe box in his study. They mostly say things like 'Call your mom before she disowns you' and 'Sam wants to know what you think about section 43b of the thing' in barely legible handwriting, but to Josh they're more precious that love letters.

2. Because he spent so much time studying when he was young, Josh was nearly thirty before he went to his first rock concert and even then it was a political fund raiser for the senator he was working for at the time.

3. Even though he sometimes questions what he does, he can think of nothing in the world that he'd rather do.

Toby:

1. He thought nothing could phase him, but Toby had no idea how overwhelming it would be to watch his children being born.

2. Toby likes to cook. He learned from his mother who learned from her mother, and he gets a great deal of pleasure out of turning a pile of random ingredients into something people ask for seconds of.

3. He's learned the hard way that it's not always a good thing to be the smartest man in the room.

Natalie:

1. Natalie likes that she's short because people tend to underestimate her and she gets perverse pleasure out of proving them wrong.

2. If anyone had told her that the love of her life would be a weather-obsessed maths nerd she would have kicked them in the shins.

3. Some days working with Dan and Casey (and Dana when it comes right down to it) really is like trying to herd cats.
