Marcie and Peppermint Patty are standing in a field. The latter holds a football and says,"I think we should practice something different this time..." Marcie says,"Not too different, sir..."<BR><BR> They kneel on the ground with the football nearby. Peppermint Patty traces on the ground and says,"This is the play, Marcie.....you go straight out, cut left, cut back, go straight, cut back, go right and then out..."<BR><BR> She looks up and asks,"Have you got that?" Marcie sits up holding the football and replies,"I think so, sir...I go out left, cut straight, cut right, cut back, go left, cut back, go straight, cut left and run right..."<BR><BR> Pepprmint Patty waves her fingers at her and exclaims,"No, Marcie, that's all wrong! You go straight out, cut left, cut back, go straight, cut back, go right and then out!" Marcie says,"Maybe I should throw the ball, sir, and you go out..."<BR><BR> They kneel on the ground again, with Peppermint Patty tracing the play in the ground. She says,"That's a good idea...I'll go out left, cut back, go right, cut left and then straight out...." Marcie says,"Go out right, cut left, cut back, go straight and cut right..."<BR><BR> Peppermint Patty looks up and exclaims,"No, Marcie! I'll go out left, cut back, go right, cut left and then straight out!" Marcie stoops and replies,"I have another idea, sir..."<BR><BR> She concludes as she walks off,"I'll go left, cut back, go straight, cut right, go back, cut left, and then go home for dinner!" Peppermint Patty sits on the ground saying,"I can't stand it..."<BR><BR>
Time for a Hail Marcie!
