The dread Captain Howdy is captain of the S.S. Exorcist. He thinks love is icky and he thinks you're icky. Love robs you of the time that could be spent doing more productive things. While your 'oooh-ing' and 'ahh-ing' and groping and pawing, you could be: pickling assorted root vegetables, alphabetizing the things in your garage, visiting Colonial Williamsburg and heaping scorn on those around you.

While not particularly fond of traditional marriage or dating rituals, Belly is a devoted follower of sparks who believes that even the grumpiest curmudgeon's life can be improved with the addition of a little romance. She hopes to spend her twilight years winking inappropriately at young'ns and making delivery boys very uncomfortable. And trying to pinch Howdy's buns.
