Does kissing cats give you trench mouth?

I don’t watch television much, according to this week’s column.

But one program I make time for between reading dictionaries and textbooks is “Masterpiece Theatre.”

During commercial breaks of that program, I often find myself enjoying the Sonic advertisements where two men sit in a car and talk about offerings from the restaurant. From what I understand, the two actors “improvise” those commercials, meaning they don’t act off a script or have any type of pre-planning. They just “wing it,” as they say in France.
