Becky: "Bonnie, what's your favorite band?"

Me: "Eh, probably Pink Floyd."

Becky: "Why? What do they sing about?"

Me: (making sure my answer is carefully chosen because my mother is within earshot) "Sad stuff...but it didn't always have to be that way! They used to sing about happy stuff! Like cats! And gnomes! And bikes!"

Becky: "GNOMES?"

Mum: "Bikes?"

Me: "Yeah, bikes."

Mum: "D'you mean motor-bikes, or the kind of bikes you pedal?"

Me: "Normal bikes. The kind you ride on the sidewalk. The kind I have."

Mum: (looks at me with a strange look that suggests I knew more than she thought) "Oh..."

(Taken from an interesting conversation with my sister and later my mum regarding the nature of Pink Floyd.)

"I hate my stinkin'-ferret school work! I hate this stinkin'-ferret work! Oh, stinkin'-ferret. It's my new explative. D'you like it?"

"If you like something more than hamburger buns...that says a lot about the thing you like."

"Hey! I just made up the greatest song lyric ever! 'Harvey, Harvey, Harvey the Wonder Hamster!'"

"Hey, you could kill yourself with my lightsabre!"

~ Me to two friends who were performing part of a Shakespeare play for me (in which someone kills herself)

"Oy vey, what do I say? Stick it in me hat an' call it a day!"
