Wow. It looks like someone broke out their dictionary/ thesaurus.
On a side note, this reminds me - a few years back, there was some songwriting contest that was being held through the schools here (I'm assuming it was national). Anyway, long story short, my daughter who was in 5th grade at the time was one of the top winners, and got to have a phone conversation with Britney Spears.
The reason my details are so vague is because I didn't even know about the contest, I didn't know about her winning, and I certainly didn't know abou the Britney conversation. I heard about it from her teacher. Britney called my daughter at school.
I asked my daughter "You talked to Britney Spears!?"
daughter: yeah
me: what did you talk about?
daughter: not much.
me: did she ask you anything?
daughter: she wanted to know what it was like to live in Alaska.
me: what did you say?
daughter: it sucks.
me: oh - so what else?
daughter: she wanted to know if I had any brothers or sisters. I told her I had a brother and a sister.
me: what did she say?
daughter: she wanted to know if I got along with them. I told her my sister sucks.
me: oh. So why didn't you tell me about this whole thing?
daughter: Mom... it's Britney Spears. She sucks! It's not like it was someone good.
My daughter is now in 10th grade, and she still gets a laugh out of this.
