Excuse Bruce

There was a fellow named Bruce
Who  always had an excuse
When his wife caught him cheating
She gave him a beating
And threw him out on his caboose

So he went to his mistress
in desperation and distress
But he got under her skin
as his excuses grew thin
So she threw him out, she wasn't impressed

joseph , about that movie , Perfect Sense, it was showing either on Sundance or IFC, one of those international type movie channels. Do you get those? Also, it was several months ago and I'd been saving it a long time on my DVR. if you get Netflix or something, it would be neat if you could see it.
