"I've made a big clay T-Rex for my school science project, and Mother says it's very nice..."

                              "But my live model makes her nervous..."

 

"My parents are always warning me to stay away from the edge but my toys tend to creep over...  If I'm real careful though, I can get around this heap to the door of my room.  Just watch!  Here goes--"


                                              "YIKES!!!"

                    "That's nice...  Mother is going to comfort me..."

                                                       "Oh."

 

"I'm trying to look like Johnny Depp so the cute little girl from next door will find me sexy..."

           "Maybe I should find some other way to spend my time.  You think?"

 

"Homework assignment: 'Have you been a good citizen lately?  Write a description for the class.' "

                                                 "What did I say...?"

                        "GM, does Mother still kiss you goodnight too?"

                "That's funny...  He doesn't seem to know what I'm talking about!"

 

"I've asked if I can hold a sleepover with my friends but Father says there are logistical problems..."

                                  "I wonder what he means by that."
