Monkey: ...because Quicken Smart Loans will put thousands of dollars back in your pocket!
Me: Who do you suppose took it out of my pocket in the first place?

Me: Are you watching commercials again?
Monkey: Ooh! It's the Dino Thunder with two white rangers! I love that one!

...and *zoom!* he's off.

You know what happens if the TV breaks? Radio jingles. All day long. "Maaakin' beeeautiful mem'ries! Scrapboook Suuperstooorrrre - oooooh!" Maybe not that one - I don't think they advertise outside of, like, a mile from here.
