Zonker: I'm not sure I want to see this. Rev. Sloan: It pains me to show it to you, little brother...but I don't want you to come across this unawares. Zonker: Gasp! Oh, my gosh...what happened?

Never mind that acid rain was first described scientifically as a phenomenon by 1952. Last week, I sent some pictures of Walden to Reagan.

Shall I order a study?
