Light Points

"Ramsey, what have you been doing?"

"WELL, EVERYONE KEEPS SAYING i LOOK FUNNY BECAUSE i HAVE A BROWN NOSE AND i DON'T HAVE ANY LIGHT POINTS LIKE MOM AND MOST OTHER DONKEYS...

THERE'S ALL THIS WHITE STUFF EVERYWHERE SO i THOUGHT i'D FIX IT....

SEE, i HAVE LIGHT POINTS NOW!"

"WHAT DO YOU THINK MA, DID i DO A GOOD JOB?"

"Oh yeah, you certainly did a good job.  You look, um, very light."

"GOODY, HOW ABOUT A BIG HUG AND A KISS THEN?"

"Um, yeah,well, I wouldn't want to mess up your new look.  Why don't we wait till later."  When you've dried off a bit.

 "Say Ramsey, aside from your make-over, what do you think about all this snow now?"

"THER'S ONLY ONE WORD FOR IT MA....

BLEEEECH"

Snow Day

"C'mon guys, aren't you going to come out at all today?"

"Are you out of your mind??  We're not coming out there!"

"Aw, c'mon, you have to at least stretch your legs."

"Hmmmm, nope, don't think so.  You go right on and have fun playing with the snow blower thingy without us.  I'll keep an eye on things from here."

"Sheesh Em, you know I hate snow blowing.  Don't you think you ought to at least come out and supervise, make sure I do it right?" 

"Don't worry Ma, I'll be watching.  You know you can count on me!  Gotta make sure you get it right after all."  no way, no how am I going out there though...

Two and a half hours of snow blowing later...

"YUCK!  ALL THAT TIME SPENT MOVING THIS NASTY STUFF AROUND AND THIS IS THE BEST YOU CAN COME UP WITH?"

"Aw jeez Ramsey, you too?  I thought you at least would want to come out and play."

"PLAY WITH THIS?! ICK."

"Say Ma, why don't you just let us know when you get all this mess cleaned up.  We'll talk then, OK?  And HEY, we could use a bit more HAY in here!"

"Yeah, sure Em, I'll get right on that......" 

An Unpleasant Discovery

"YO, MA!"

"Yes Ramsey?"

"WHAT IS THIS NASTY STUFF???

"That, my dear Summer Baby, is snow."

"IT'S COLD, AWFUL, ICKY, GROSS AND IT'S MESSING WITH MY LUNCH!!  HOW DO WE GET RID OF IT?"

"Ohhhh if only I knew the answer to that question.  I hate to tell you this baby, but this is just the beginning.  It's gonna get worse.  Much, much worse."

"WORSE THAN THIS?!  WHAT WILL WE DO???"

"Do like I told you kid, keep your tail tucked tight and your ears down.  When that fails, stay in the barn and demand room service."

"AH JEEZ.  THIS DOESN'T SOUND GOOD AT ALL.  YA KNOW, i THINK i REALLY NEED TO  JUST GO BITE SOMETHING."  WHEW, AT LEAST THE TREES ARE STILL EDIBLE....
