Buddy: We were walking and suddenly Marcus screamed - screamed, mind you - Hey, Minnie, hey, Mo! You brought your family this time.
Rusty:: Who was he screaming at?
Merci: Geese. He thinks all geese are named Minnie and Mo.
Percy: So what did the geese say?
Buddy: Nothing. They just stared at us like we were weird. Mo is a honker so I guess Minnie and Mo weren't present.
Merci: Since the geese wouldn't talk to us, Marcus wanted Jan to run home to get his sign. She refused.
Percy: If I remember correctly, Marcus speaks goose with a Southern accent and Minnie and Mo spoke Canadian. What dialect you suppose these geese spoke?
Buddy: Is silence a dialect? They never made a sound.
Percy: Oh, that's why Marcus came home all upset. He came in muttering, Those stuck up out of towners!
Marcus: *enters room* Hey, guys, I just figured out why those geese wouldn't honk at me the other day.
Buddy: Why?
Marcus: It was a honkless holiday. I think I hear the treat bag rustling in the kitchen.
Percy: What's a honkless holiday?
Buddy: I have no idea. But this is Thankful Thursday.and I'm sure thankful you and Merci didn't ask him.
