Cory was making Charlene many cups of coffee in the sand box. He wanted to do it just right… what color cup, what shape of cup, but most of the discussion was about whether or not she wanted caffeine. Then up at the horsey swings, he told her a story about his horse, Brownie. You could feed Brownie either carrots or apples, but nothing else that might make her sick. Soon he started riding Brownie very fast and told her that someone had fed Brownie the wrong food, and they had to get her to the doctor right away. A girl named Caffeine had fed her the wrong food and now Brownie had the chicken pox!

“Mommy, I wished I hadded light-up underwear.” - James

In the movie Toy Story II there's a line where someone says, "You can't rush art." One day Sabrina was going to the bathroom and Sheri told her to hurry because they were running late. She looked up at her and said, (like she knew exactly what she was implying), "You can't rush art!"

While brushing his hair for school, Reed, a motorcycle enthusiast, remarked, “Look, I made a berm on my head.” Debbie looked, and sure enough his cowlick was sticking up.
