“Yah right. Pay ‘tention next time.”

“Dude, I got all the tension I need. What’s yer question already?”

“How d’ya pronounce tha ‘L’ in ‘salmon’?”

“Wit’ a lot a imagination.”

“Yeah? How’s that work?”

“Ya imagine like it ain’t there. So ya c’n ignore it.”

“Why Sam?

    I think there may be some green ham in our fridge. The dudes are welcome to it. They’d best leave Sam’s fish alone or I’ll beat the L out of them.
