Grandpa, can we go somewhere fun today? Like where? Six Flags. For something like that, son, you don't ask the monkey, you ask the organ grinder. I already asked the organ grinder. She said no. |

Nelson, do you think you're strong enough to carry a gallon of milk from the car for Gramma? No. No? What if I told you it was chocolate milk? Zoom! Don't worry if it looks like white chocolate milk. |

Gramma told me that when a flower wilts in a bouquet you have to take it out. Is that so? Yep. She said it's because it puts out a poisonous gas that will kill all the other flowers. Are you sure she wasn't really talking about me? No. |

How come you're cutting off those flowers, Gramma? I'm just cutting off the wilted ones, Nelson. When a flower in a bouquet dies you have to take it out because it emits a gas that will kill the other flowers. Wow. Flowers are a lot meaner than they look! |

Go ahead and ask me some math questions, Gramma. Okay, Nelson, what is . . . Umm . . . Four times sixteen? That's easy. It's not seventy. Well, technically, that is correct, so good job, I guess. |

How are you doing in school these days, Nelson? I've got straight A's. Really? That's wonderful! But I'm really not at all surprised. After all you are my grandson. My B's are wobbly though. |

Are there any other things you wish you could've done during your life, Dad? Yeah. I kind of wish I could've been someone's mentor. BRAAAAP! I think you can cross that one off your list. |

Grampa, why is a building called a building when it's already built? You don't call a house a housing or a school a schooling or a nest a nesting. Shouldn't it just be called a build? Hmm . . . Well, I . . . Uhh . . . Never mind. I'll go ask Google. Oh, yeah? Well, Good luck getting Google to take you to the ice cream parlor! |

Do you have any dental floss, Gramma? Dental floss? I think I have some here in my purse. Here it is. Do you have something stuck in your teeth? Thanks! Nope. It's for my snowman. OOPS! I was trying to floss his teeth and I slipped. |

Gramma, if you could have one super power, what would it be? No need to ask her that, Nelson. Your Gramma actually has a super power. Really? She has a super power? What is it? She has the ability to stop time. You can stop time? That's so cool! Your grampa is crazy. It's the truth. Whenever she drags me to the fabric store time stands still. I spent a week there one afternoon. |

I hate it when I get a cold sore. It's so embarrassing! I don't even want to leave the house! Oh, it's not that bad. It's hardly even noticeable at all. Gramma, do you have a piece of pepperoni stuck on your lip? |

A wise man once said there are two types of people. There's the type that does the work, and the type that takes credit for the work. Which type are you, Grampa? Me? I'm the type that doesn't like typecasting different types of people into types. |

You're coloring outside the lines, Grampa. I am? Yeah, Way outside! Well, coloring inside the lines is all very well and good, Nelson. But really creative people can't be restricted by lines. They color wherever they feel like it. That's what real artists do. Are you a real artist? Not exactly. I just have bad bifocals. But it's similar. |

I'm not sure you should be dressing up as God for Halloween, son. Why not? I don't think the almighty likes it when we pretend to be him. It's usually politicians and doctors who are guilty of it. But I think it goes for everyone. |

I like your computer, Gramma. You do? Uh huh. It has a big screen and it's really fast. I hope I can get one like this someday. Tell you what … you can have this one when I die. Really? When will that be? |

Nelson, you've watched enough TV. Go outside and play now. Okay. Your grandson spends a lot of time at your place. Does he live here? No. It seems like it sometimes, but he lives next door with his mom and her husband. It must be nice having your daughter and her family living so close. Yes, it is. Whenever I get lonely for them all I have to do is look out the window. I don't know why they have to keep their blinds closed all the time, though. |

In order to be happy, Nelson, you need three things … something to do, something to love, and something to hope for. I baked brownies. Does anybody want one? I do! I do too!! I love brownies! So do I! I hope we can get a glass of milk, too. Coming right up! How about that? A triple play!! |
