I'll be off and on this week, but I'm following the FOOBs anyway. Elly carries an 8 x 10 model-style photo of Liz around with her? And tries to hook her up with men at all times? Because she is 24 and NOT MARRIED, gasp!
I am also not sure if Liz (and her village) should be that thrilled that Elly is all but dismissing Liz as "liking simple things." Whereas Mike, with the incompetent pharmacist wife and crowded apartment and questionable journalistic ethics, apparently lives on a more complex plane. (Does he ever!)
How far away does this cop live from Mtigwhatever, anyway ... it's far enough away that Elly couldn't just drive back and sleep at Liz's, but close enough that he's planning to start sniffing around Liz? Time and space expand and contract at will in the comic universe, I guess.

Oh, Gael, your observations on this plotline are high-larious and TRUE! I cannot stop laughing! I was thinking pretty much all of those exact things but you have worded them so much better than I ever could. Thank god for your blog.
I just wanted to say that I love your posts about FBOFW. I'm dying to see what you have to say about today's (9/21) absurdity. Please keep it up!
When the heck did Liz become utterly irresistable to all the men in Canada? What is that all about?
Constable Paul Wright. Unbelievable.
Gee. This foreshadowing (Cst. Wright) is so subtle. I wonder where it's going. I also wonder why Liz was allowed to live and work as a single woman for so long? Everyone knows women should get married at 19, stay home and have baby after baby.

...At least he's not Anthony?
Liz is assaulted by a stalker (who for all we know is still at large — why isn't Greta on the case?), propositioned by a married ex-boyfriend, and her mother is trying to sell her off to Barney Fife North?
Turn lesbian, Liz. It will be easier.
As long as it's not Anthony I don't care who it is. At least LJ managed to draw this guy like he's fairly cute. But, uh... who asks "Is your daughter engaged" right off the bat? Couldn't he have just asked for her phone number or something? Then presumably her mom/pimp would have said if she was seeing anyone.
I like how he specified "engaged" -- if she's just dating someone, no trouble breaking them up! And if she's married -- well, it's easy enough to steal a slice of bread if the loaf's already cut, eh?
Poor Liz is reminding me of me here, for I myself have this proble that every creepy guy in a 100 mile radius has his heart thoroughly set on dating me. The only advice I can give her there is -- never leave the house.
