Loved this first time I read it and still loving it! The dialogue was excellent but I am not surprised since everything I've read of you're always has fantastic dialogue. Loved Steve's cheeky comment on being a lover and not a fighter.
Of course how could Steve turn down fishing when Jeannie will be coming along?

Wonderful! Fishing sounds harmless enough, but I am convinced that Steve somehow manage to get into trouble!

Ah, Jeannie... gets Steve every time. Glad that Mike knows it and is okay with it (encouraged it?). Thanks!

Wonderfully done! These are very much in character!

...and of course the girl, too!
Love your style. Write on!

Steve chuckled. "You got kicked out of Candlestick Park? Mr. Straight N. Narrow Stone was forcibly removed from a Giants game? Ha!"

Loved that line! I don't know how you do it but you've got a gift with coming up with some of the most memorable lines in your stories.

Oh that was a laugh and a half! Thanks for posting this here. I remembered how amusing it was the first time I read it so I made sure I wasn't drinking my coffee reading it a second time!

Oh, this was hilarious! I was in stitches reading this! "The Wicked Kitty" Ha! I could just imagine the look on Mike's face and Steve in drag OMG! It's also typical of Steve to be pulling Mike's leg like that with such a mischievous joke.

Mike's reaction was pure Gold:

"Stop. Stop. Stop. I don't want to hear anymore," Mike protested.

One of my favorite lines, among many:

"Buddy boy, you are cruising for a bruising." Mike interrupted.

And LOL on Olsen's appearance and comment at the end!

You have a real talent for getting inside the characters' heads and knowing exactly how they would react in all sorts of situations that your great imagination conjures! I was ecstatic when you accepted the challenge - it had your name stamped all over it!

Thanks for giving this a run for my money :-)

Awwww that was great! Loved how Olsen plotted with Steve to get back at the guys for the baby jokes. Have you ever thought about writing a story revolving around Steve's first day as Mike's partner? I think you'd do a wonderful job if your muse ever decides to give it a shot.

Oh this was so much fun to read! Read it three times and still laughing. On a more serious note, you captured the characters caring for one another nicely. You have one wickedly superb sense of humor that really shines through your stories.

Love this one!
Should perhaps try something like this when my pupils are too cocky...

Here in the Swiss mountains the rule for men is very simple: What is green is not edible.
One exception: It is possible to feed the green stuff to a cow or pig and then eat the animal.

That is a great idea! So funny!
