Some syrup may get on your chicken but that's okay.
There is logic to your mischief theory.
"I like the "right under our noses" type return." So Andy will come back... as a moustache! And... I think the live kitty would be more fun than the dead kitty.
Would AK "get along with Lawler" if he came back? Or would they still pretend to hate each other? I would like to see him come back on Letterman or any late night show; with his "attitude" Andy: You fools thought I was dead! God**** you!
