Danae: Do you think the ice is thick enough for skating yet? Lucy: Gee, I dunno Danae: What do you mean you don't know, fuzz-butt? You're a horse! I thought you guys knew this sort of stuff by instinct... Lucy: Oh, really, hemlmet-head? When was the last time you saw a horse on ice skates? Kate: Well, we could try using the Yugoslavian ice testing method Danae: Uh...what test is that, Kate?
