He was fat and bunchy, as a rabbit should be.
His coat was spotted brown and white and his ears were lined with pink sateen.
On Christmas morning, when he sat wedged in the top of the boy's stocking with a sprig of holly between his paws - the effect was charming.
" - I saw a rabbit once.
Yeah, me too.
I like rabbits.
"There were other things in the stocking, nuts and oranges and a toy engine and chocolate almonds" Okay, Damester Stentorian! Yelling won't help.

Here, have an oyster.
They're an aphrodisiac.
Ray! Ray Drecker! - Coming.
- Ray! - Hey, there he is.
- Hi.
Hello.
Gosh, I just flew in from the oyster bar and, boy, my arms are tired.
I guess I'm supposed to tell you what a great guy Mike is.
- He is.
- He looks handsome tonight.
- How long has it been going on? - What? The selling of my ex-husband.
I don't know what you mean.
You're a pimp, Tanya.
I run a wellness center.
You're a pimp and Ray works for you.
Well, yeah I figured out the pimp part after a while but Ray That was certainly a surprise.
- Jessica - It's okay.
I'm not mad.
A year ago I'm sure he never would have imagined that he'd be sitting here.
He's not my husband anymore.
He hasn't been my husband for a very long time.
And I beta year ago, if I said to Frances: "You're going to marry an earth science teacher who collects baseball cards" Ha, ha, ha.
Didn't know that, did you? She probably wouldn't have believed me either.
Mike and Frances don't exactly travel in the same circles but one day they met.
Ahem.
In a park.
In a public park.
But it doesn't really matter where or how.
What matters is that they That they found each other.
They found happiness.
This one day they met and they were put together.
And they're still together today.
To saying and doing the right things.
And to listening to what's being said even when it's not spoken.
To being brave enough to be who you are.
To being honest telling the truth.
To Mike and Frances.
Hear, hear.
Congratulations.
That toast - Congratulations, buddy.
Ray, stop.
Ray, stop walking.
- Not now.
- God, she knows! - I gotta tell her.
- She knows.
She already knows.
She just told me.
She's not stupid.
She figured it out.
She knows? Ray, I'm sorry.
All right? I'm sorry.
I don't know what happened between you or how you were or used to be or why she left you for Ronnie.
For a guy like Ronnie? I don't know.
But she did, Ray.
She left.
And you let her.
And maybe you thought you wanted to give her an orgasm or get her back or whatever, but it's not good, Ray, for either one of you.
You're a good man, Ray.
You're better than you think.
She must fucking hate me.
No, Ray.
Yeah, she probably fucking hates me.
No, she doesn't hate you.
Nobody hates you.
What am I gonna say now? You don't have to say anything.
Just go to her.
You it's gonna be okay.
Jess, listen He's so good.
- Well, he's in love.
- You didn't sing at our wedding.
