"well minamin, what did we do the other day?"
-we went in mommy's twuck and got a bak tanoo.
"we did, didn't we?"
-yes AnderZander we did.  and we told daddy we yiked it.
"well we hummed and hawed a bit first."
-well of course!

"we inspected the yoke"
-and the ribbing
"and the ribbing, yes."

-I think daddy you're going to need some varnish here
"that's just dirt Minamin dear, give it a rub"
-by George AnderXander I do believe you're right.
"how does it feel on your bum Minamin?  My diaper's skewing my judgment"
-oh it's awful cozy.
"good to hear, good to hear."

"well daddy, we think we have a winner."
-it's a keeper daddy
"it's stable"
-it's unique
"it responds well"
-what is it responding too AnderXander?
"hmmm.  isnt' that what people say when they sit in a canoe?"
-well yes, but they are usually in water.
"right you are Minamin. Daddy it responds well as far as Gravenhurst grass goes."

   -Norman Bethune grass.

                                                                                    "oooh, that's right!"
