Description Another one for the Focus. ^^ This is a play-on for the Shel Silverstein poem "Smart."



Smart

My dad gave me one dollar bill
'Cause I'm his smartest son,
And I swapped it for two shiny quarters
'Cause two is more than one!
And then I took the quarters
And traded them to Lou
For three times -- I guess he don't know
That three is more than two!

Just then, along came old blind Bates
And just 'cause he can't see
He gave me four nickles for my three dimes,
And four is more than three!

And I took the nickels to Hiram Coombs
Down at the seed-feed store,
And the fool gave me five pennies for them,
And five is more than four!

And then I went and showed my dad,
And he got red in the cheeks
And closed his eyes and shook his head--
Too proud of me to speak!

- Shel Silverstein

I feel Minnie values things for how they look, and not how much they're worth...

It was also based off of a Shel Silverstein poem, so there's that too.

You know, now that I think of it, why was an old blind man hanging out with a six year old girl?

Miny: He had candy!...and something called Hepatitis C.

D: .....

Miny: Is that like orange juice? With vitamin C?


Theo: Yeaaaaaah, it's like orange juice...sexually diseased orange juice.

Miny: Is it a problem I sucked on his head?


Theo: ..........which head?


Miny: *GAAAASP* He has more than one head?! He's an iguana?!

Theo: ........*has no idea how two heads and iguanas match up*....nooooo....but if you're talking like that, than you must have meant the regular head.....wait, why were you....sucking on his....ego?


Miny: I thought it would taste like chocolate!

Theo: He's not black.

Miny: White chocolate!
