She's Really Called Rosemary


Danny Butterman was in love. "Say 'Butterman.'"

The baby made a turtle face.

"Good!"

"That was never 'Butterman.'"

"You still don't understand the local dialect. Can we keep her?"

"No. Doris will want it back when she's out of the loo."

"We'll call her McClane Robocop Angel-hyphen-Butterman."

"That is a lovely, feminine name. Where would we keep it?"

"…cupboard?"

"Riiiiiight. Do you know what to feed it?"

"...chips?"

"Fine. I'll distract Doris, you take Robocop--"

"McClane Robocop."

"--McClane Robocop out the back, hide in the woods, and await instructions."

"Doris is standing behind me, isn't she?"

"Oh yes."

What does a "turtle face" look like?

It's more pointy than a Lambchop face.

You know how really teeny babies have those beaky lips? Turtle face is pretty much the only expression they have.
