Jack Sprat could eat no fat
I WISH MATHEW WOULD STOP TELLING people we are like Jack Sprat and his wife. You know the saying, Jack Sprat could eat no fat and his wife could eat no lean?
Well, it’s the reverse in our case. Mathew lives on beer, cigarettes, fatty hamburgers, and brandy but he never misses out on an opportunity to tell anybody who’ll listen how skinny he is. As if they can’t see for themselves.
Jack Sprat could eat no fat and his wife could eat no lean. He says that all the time to people. I ask him to stop saying it but he just laughs at me.
