| abstract | - In the summer, the Gonkersons threw backyard barbecues every weekend. The whole neighborhood was invited. Rob was especially proud of his buffalo wings. Helen's potato salad was always a big hit. In the autumn Rob's coworkers stopped by to watch the big game, bringing beer and nachos. Helen often used this as an opportunity to go shopping for hats. The two Gonk droids had three wonderful children: Tom, Bridget, and Barb. Tom Gonkerson played on the local football team, the Fighting Gonks. Bridget and Barb hoped one day to work in a salon, powering hairstyling equipment. Bridget Gonkerson was the sensible one, whereas Barb Gonkerson was flighty and irresponsible, but also the class cut-up in her Gonk school.
