Transcript

International Sterling from Hollywood, International Silver Company, creators of International Sterling, prevents the adventures of Aussie and Harriet, starring America's favorite gun couple, Aussie Nelson and Harriet Siveters. One of the immutable laws of nature is that opposites attract.

Perhaps this is why Aussie and Harriet were drawn to each other, because there never was anybody so opposite as Aussie. For instance, when Harriet says, No. Aussie says yes. And when Harriet says yes. Aussie says no.

And when Harriet says yes and no. Aussie says yes. Could be. Right now there's laws in full operation of the Nelson household concerning a chair and sofa that Harriet wants to have real poultry. The only reason I want to go to the home furnishing and decorating show is to see some new posturing materials.

Harriet, the chair and sofa do not need reappolstering. Let's talk this over calmly. Now sit down. Alright. Harriet. Hold still. I'll help you get the spring out of your back pocket. Probably wouldn't happen again in a thousand years.

Well, we can't wait that long. Look at the fabric on the sofa. The moor hares all worn off. Oh, it's not too bad. No. Moor has more hair than the sofa. Sorry, please. No jokes.

Well, I've gotten several estimates. We can have the whole job done for about $200. $200? What's it for? Fixing up the sofa in chair, Dave. Do I get your tick book, Plump? Dave, is this between your mother and me?

What's between your mother and me? We were discussing having the furniture here, folks. Well, you're finally gonna have it done, huh? Well, not necessarily. Not necessarily. What does that mean? It means that if you keep at them, Mom, and else you'll have it done.
