Dear Evil ER Powers That Be:

Please allow me to present you with this freebie that's guaranteed to
boost your pathetic show's sagging ratings: rip off a classic bit from
the Brits, and change the spelling of Jeannie's last name to "Bullet".
Then, in every episode, make up some hackneyed excuse for Jeannie to
make a phone call to someone, and only show her half of the
conversation, which will always go something like this:

JB: "Hello, local doughnut shoppe? Yes I would like to order a dozen of
your finest doughnuts, delivered! ... Yes, send them to County General
Hospital, attention Jeannie Boulet ... How's that spelled? Yes dear, my
last name is spelled B-U-L-L-E-T ... Noooooo, it's pronounced
'Boulet'..." [QUEUE CANNED LAUGHTER]

Seriously guys, you could milk that one bit for *years*.

You're welcome,
--
DTH

For those who do: Yeah, it was funnier before I typed it up.

Actually, I could too. :-(. Still, it couldn't make the show any
worse. So we have that going for us. Which is nice.
