Whole heartedly in agreement. Marge is a pushy, nasty woman Imho. I can see 
her bullying an old man to do what she wanted... Especially if he is alone- 
widower, perhaps ( just speculating)

I have a vision of her knowing him and his wife and being the obnoxious 
neighbour. Then with the death of Fubster's wife swooping in and taking 
advantage of him for her own needs. I read a great deal of control "freak" in 
her character and much need to be "top dog"- pardon the pun.

Poor Fubster.
