Grandpa

We can't bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere - like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time.

Dang it. That would have been awesome if it really was your grandpa. I always threatened my step daughters that if they married an idiot, I would act just like Grandpa Simpson.

I'm filled with piss and vinegar! At first, I was just filled with vinegar.

You're ignorant! That's the Wright Brothers' plane! In Kitty Hawk in 1903, Charles Lindbergh flew it 15 miles on a thimble full of corn oil. Single-handedly won us the Civil War, it did
