“Hi Mr. Walrus, just came down from research and there wasn’t any Classic Funny to pick up. Is something wrong?”
“No Miss Munro, nothing wrong. We are ending the Friday Classic Funny.”
“Oh dear, won’t the natives get restless?”
“Probably, but let the Emu take care of that. What we are announcing today is a new Friday feature.”
“Oh Goody!”
“Yes. Next Friday we will begin our Movie Throwdown where we will force our people to choose between 2 movies until there is only One!”
“The Highlander?”
“Maybe, maybe not but we are going to find out!”
“I can’t wait!”
“Neither can I.”
Ima go ahead and put in for Debbie Does Dallas.
