"AWH, CHRIS! DO I HAVE TO?"
"Your ma says yes... It's your first day. I bet you're gonna have fun...I liked school!"
"You went to school?"
Chris laughed. "Sure...most of the time...except when I took off to go swimming."
"You took off?"
"Sometimes... on nice, sunny days."
"You liked school?"
"Most of it."
"What didn't you like?"
"Gettin' caught! That sure wasn't fun."
"For skipping?"
"For skippin', smokin', pullin' girls hair, fightin', not doin' my work...for..."
"This is going to be fun!"
"Ah...now wait..."
"You must a had a real good time. Wait until I tell ma..."
"Billy...don't you go tellin' your ma."
"Bet she doesn't know half the fun you had."
"Ah, hell."
"Chris! Is that where you learned to cuss, too?"
