Me: Tyler, what would you like for Christmas?
Ty: I don't know...I haven't even thought about it. Why don't you ask me again in about three weeks?
Me: Well, I just had an idea...but Dad would never go for it, but it would be funny. Well, maybe not funny.... (I'm chuckling).
Ty: Tell me what it is!
Me: Start guessing.
Ty: Is it something I want?
Me: Yes.
Ty: A new car?
Me: Don't be ridiculous. Here's a hint. You have one already, but it would be different than the one you have.
Ty: So...it's something I want, and I have one already - only different, and Dad won't go for it, but it would be funny...or some other adjective.
Me: That's right.
Ty: Is the one I have in my room?
Me: No.
Ty: Is it out here? (He begins looking around the living room.)
Me: Yes.
Ty: Well, it must be a DVD...maybe a sequel to one I already own?
Me: Wrong.
Ty: Humph...Is it on my person?
Me: Yes.
Ty: (Big grin emerges.) Something I have already, but I want another one, and it would be funny...or some other adjective, but Dad won't go for it. I know what it is...another tattoo! Am I right?
Me: Uh-huh.
Joel: Over my dead body!!!
