I walked into my sister's kitchen and found my nephew, Dewey, having a snack.
"Where's your mother?" I asked.

The other one says: "HOLD on there, cowboy. Are those values CERTIFIED??

Her hair glistened in the rain like nose hair after a sneeze.
The hailstones leaped from the pavement, just like maggots when you
fry them in hot grease.
She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes
just before it throws up.
The ballerina rose gracefully en pointe and extended one slender leg
behind her, like a dog at a lamppost.
