I'd always thought that the transformation of kid-to-adult was akin to that
of the worm becoming a butterfly: you start off life wriggling where you please,
wind up in a three-piece-suit coccoon, then emerge as a boring corporate butterfly.
It's obvious from the examples of Ed and Peej that I don't have to worry about that
for at least the next four/five years.

Yeah, a sentiment echoed by many of the X-Mart type stores I'd called in search
of the items:

"We had a bunch of that stuff awhile ago, but now we're sold out".

Still, I got my "Flash Gun", so I'd say my life is complete.

(Wonder if the Tedster marketing-minds noticed stuff like this? Oh wait...
   "Tedster marketing-minds" is an oxymoron, isn't it?)
