"e.s.p.., i'm becoming a dentist, my young inventist"           that's neat. --or so i  mused  and  we shared ourselves and ourslefs with laughs of  shhh... ch..ch...       and sha... cha... cha..  huh uh huh ... yeh yeh... hee. silly giggulous altitude i'll never see you again merrimentatious eeeerr  turbulence badumbadum..
