I thought Wilbur's "rock bottom" was standing on the Cliffs of Despair with a bottle in his hand preparing to jump. But I was wrong. It was spilling noodles on his shirt on an awkward double date with his ex and her boyfriend.

"Wilbur, I really appreciate your commitment to sobriety, and your desire to apologize for your drunkenness on our last date. And what better place to make that apology than the Star Lounge."

That can't be a real wreath. It must be some sort of applique. How vulgar. Also a palm tree so near your window? That's a messy mistake. But, if your comfortable with vulgar and messy mistakes, by all means, date Wilbur.

Mary: Wilbur is charmingly quirky

Mary: Wilbur will get over Iris

Mary: Estelle, don't give up on the alcoholic you sang songs with a couple of times.

I'm sorry Mary, that's three strikes. You're advice is meaningless at best, and potentially dangerous, so I'm afraid you're going to have to give the advice column back to ... Wilbur. Oh, dear. We are doomed.

Could Mary be wrong on both counts? I mean she thinks Iris and Wilbur are still together. In Moy-logic, ipso facto, Wilbur and Iris must be destined for one another. My feelings about our characters fluctuate frequently. Today, I like Estelle more than Mary. And I like that brick of fruitcake more than Estelle.

"I've got just the thing to cheer you up. How about a big steamy bowl of manure? Because seriously, you've earned it."

No, Estelle, not even the lonely can figure you out. 

Since the Charterstone Jukebox has been taken out of the clubhouse for Christmas, I’ve added Roy Orbison’s only Christmas song to the Charterstone Christmas Jukebox: “Pretty Papers” - it’s a guilt-trip-and-a-half, and isn’t that what Christmas is all about?

But, Wilbur, your alcoholism is comedy gold! Don't sober up now.

Zak, why do you think you can possibly succeed when a much more manly man like Wilbur has already failed?
