it'."

Red" Light: "False ones of course."

dinner today."
Norman Bossuot: "Fish is my special

Neuzil: "Gosh! If that's so you ought
to eat a whale."

McDonald talking about this morning?"

"Jew": "You sure made 'Much Ado
About Nothing'."

On the paper right opposite me
There's an answer that I'd like to see,
It would help me along,
For I know I am wrong.
And am doomed to a nice little "E."
