GEORGE: Ahh. B. Nero 37981. My arch nemesis. My Diablo.
My personal Beelzebub. Do you have your own personal Beelzebub?
I have my own personal Beelzebub. He's a good one. He's a damn
good one. He got my toe last week. That is the only toe I plan
to let him have. We have a headsurfing rematch tonight. A rematch
with my arch nemesis. He gave a good game, I'll give it to him,
it was good. A good game, I love a good game, I'm not saying
that he cheated or got lucky or anything, he had a damn good
game. But I swear on Bill Gates himself, that I will have his
toe above my head while I sleep tonight. That will be fourteen
toes. Fourteen. Twenty three according to your thinking. What
do you wanna bet I win tonight? Huh? What you wanna bet? Anything.
I'll bet you anything I win tonight. I'll bet you a toe I get
his toe tonight. HA! That would be two toes tonight I could win.
That would be fifteen toes. Or twenty four. You wanna bet a toe
I get his toe? Nah, you don't wanna bet that. I'm tired of betting
pinkie toes. I need to up the stakes y'know. At first betting
toes was exciting. This is the last toe I bet. After I win B.
Nero 37981's toe. I gotta find something else to bet. Did B.
Jones 42132's toe arrive yet? Why is there not a little beggar
with his toe in my door? That's my thirteenth toe. Thirteen.
He was easy. No challenge. He's no B. Nero 37981.
