Settling It Like Real Men
James and his 3 friends were getting ready to play a game and were deciding on teams. They were repeatedly at odds over who should be partners, their voices escalating to a shout to be heard over the others. James shouted, "Wait! We are going to settle this like real men!" There was an immediate quiet when James began rolling up his sleeves. After a short pause, all 4 boys shouted simultaneously, "ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS, SHOOT!" (10/21/12)

The Water Dispenser
