"Nah, I never read any of those. Like so many things back then, they offered to pay me money to say I liked the thing, Rex told me to say I liked the thing, I said on TV that I liked the thing, then Rex embezzled the money that I got from saying I liked the thing. Mostly to pay certain sordid individuals he owed money to that wanted very much for his legs to get broken - magically and through no fault of their own, of course."
Despite his words, he didn't sound at all upset about this arrangement. It was what it was and Rex, for all his faults, had on very rare occasion shown a soft side and come through in a pinch. He just kept flipping through his book.
"It was a weird little system but it worked - he never touched the portion that I agreed with Supes would go to charity, at any rate. Anyway, I never read a single one of 'em. Just like I didn't eat half the snack foods my face got stuck on and didn't wear half the clothes I said I wore." He added, "The only time I ever even touched all the free sneakers I got from the shoe companies I was endorsing was the time I made a sneaker fort out of them. Then I donated them all to charity."
