Jim: It's snowing again! Iris: Jim....it's winter. Jim: Darned weather. I can't do anything. I feel so cooped up. Iris: I'll call Elly. Maybe we can do something together. Jim: She'll take us somewhere for dinner and then on a tour of Christmas lights. Elly: Hiya, pop! How'd you like to go out for dinner - and then on a tour of the Christmas lights? Jim: See?! I knew that's where we'd be going! I said to Iris, "Elly's going to take us out to dinner and then on a tour of the Christmas lights!!" Elly: Well - we could do something else. You could come to our place, or we could go to a movie, or... Jim: What? Elly: I don't want to take you out to dinner and a tour of the lights if you don't want to go! Jim: Of course I want to go!!! Just when you start looking forward to something...they try and change the routine!
