* Okay, the first sentence is done. Enough reading for the day. You can go play video games now.
* Well, the chairs weren’t playing the violins. The people were. If a chair played a violin, it would be weird.
* I didn’t even know animals did yoga.
* “Glub” is the universal language for speaking underwater.
* I mean, everybody has an arm up their sleeve. Except for that Stonewall Jackson guy. He has a sleeve with no arm up it.
* Except for Saturday and Sunday, of course.
