Musical duet .... a one and a two ...

Ranger: I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay.
I sleep all night. I work all day.

Barry: He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

Ranger: I cut down trees. I eat my lunch.
I go to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays I go shoppin'
And have buttered scones for tea.

Barry: He cuts down trees. He eats his lunch.
He goes to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays he goes shopping
And has buttered scones for tea.

Chorus: I'm (He's) a lumberjack, and I'm (he's) okay. I (He) sleep(s) all night and I (he) work(s) all day.

As Sen. Obama viewed the Arizona, he repeatedly remarked what a tragedy the memorial represented. When asked to clarify his remarks, Barrack pointed to the continuing drops of oil coming out of the ship and wept for the US despoiling the planet.

Come on Martinez, you're losing his interests. Make it more dramatic. Don't just point to where the planes came in, make the airplane and machine gun noises.

Body language says it all.

Obama became quite upset while listening to the park ranger explain about Pearl Harbor. He immediately blamed his staff for not informing him about the Japanese attacks.

... Senator Dorothy awakens in his bedroom, in Chicago. Excitedly telling his family and friends gathered round, of his fantastic journey.

Laughing loudly, they tell him it was just a dream. Except his uncle ... Ranger Henry, who while motioning towards the flying monkey filled sky says: "Of course we believe you, Senator".

Toto hops up on the bed, and still quite convinced that his journey was real. Senator Dorothy gives Toto a teary hug, while exhaling: "There's no place like home".

[mmmhgh ... (clears throat)]

To dream the impossible dream,
To fight the unbeatable foe,
To bear with unbearable sorrow,
To run where the brave dare not go.

To right the unrightable wrong,
To love pure and chaste from afar,
To try when your arms are too weary,
To reach the unreachable star.

This is my quest,
To follow that star --
No matter how hopeless,
No matter how far.
