My friend came down with hepatitis — apparently ingested some hepatite.
Archaeologists have found some of the lost works of Diabetes Mellitus.
Zack’s mom (Jan) has been going on a series of dates with men from online services, in separate one-shot episodes that show their respective classic flaws. This one is a nice pun:
