I always thought Kenny Roger's Roasters would be a great name for a tanning salon

Don't you agree? Kenny could give a great testimonial.

Anyway, last night I as I was telling Ellie the latest installment in the SuperEllie series, I whispered and raised my eyebrows for full effect. Really, it was a very exciting part that involved flying and the ability to jump on top of our neighbor's two-story house.

Her eyes as big as silver dollars she interrupted me, holding my face in her hands, Why are you talking a speak-ret?

It's very difficult to tell SuperEllie stories when you can't stop laughing.

Then she said she wanted to tell me a SuperCorrie story. Only I wasn't exactly very super in it - all my super powers were broken. I did get to wear a blanket wiff wings on it (even though it couldn't make me fly) and eventually I did get to grow into a giant so tall that the real giant was only to 'here' (my shoulder) and he couldn't eat me.

Because he broke his teeth on me when he tried. My skin must be as tough and leathery as Kenny Rogers'.
