Moxy Suddenly Remembers What She Almost Forgot

“You guys, there’s no ‘Thank You’ written on the outside of these thank-you notes!” cried Moxy.

You really couldn’t hear her, though. Here’s why:

1. There was the vibration of the copier.

2. There was the sound of each thank-you note being launched into the room at the rate of one every 11 seconds (as Mark calculated it).

3. There was the fact that Moxy’s mouth was covered with an afghan.

“Would you like soup or would you like to starve?” asked Granny George. Granny George was always forgetting whether you were supposed to feed a cold and starve a fever or the other way around.
