          "Dang Darren. What's that wobblin' up there on top of your bald head?"

         "Oh this? Ya know that ditch on over by Wilson's Woods? I found this discarded brain just alyin' there. I picked it up, gave it a spit and polish, and plunked it atop ma melon."

         "A brain? Cool beans! Whatcha gonna do with it? Do ya think it's worth somethin'?"

         "I dunno, it's the first brain I ever seen. It looks hardly used. Who woulda tossed out a perfectly good brain? Remember the two batteries we threw in your truck? Mebbe I can have extra spark."

         "Oooo,it's kinda squishy. Did ya feel that poke? Are ya mind meldin' like them Star Trek freaks?"

         "Noooo, I felt nothin'. Wait, wait, that aint right."

         "Darnit Darren, you're rubbin' up agin that tree pretty dang hard. Your back man, it's scratched up real good. Now whatcha doin'? Where'd ya learn to skedaddle up a trunk like that? I dunno, man. I wouldn't swat at that bee hive if'n I was you. Them bees sound pissed."

         "Eeeyaaa!! Whooee, now that's a thumpin'. Who said somethin' about bein' out on a limb? I aint never had a hunkerin' fer honey before. Hey, ouch!"

         "Drop an' roll Darren! No, don't flap. Them bees are buzzin' mad. Roll buddy, roll. That's it, git in that water. Bees can't swim, right?"
