"Can we hear 'Dark of the Manatee' again?"
"'Dark of the Matinee'?"
"Yes, that one."
"No, no, no, no. No. Dad. No. Do 'We are Devo'!"
"Next."
[Plays song.]
"Dad, this part sounds like your band, the one Clem and Wilbo were in."
[Completely stunned silence.]
"You remember what we sounded like?"
"OK, not now, not now, with the 'white finger' part."
[Listening.]
"I can't hear it."
"It's loud enough."
"Dad, I like 'Dark...of...the...Matinee' more than Junior Senior and Devo COMBINED. But just the chorus, just that part. That's the part I like more than Junior Senior and Devo combined."
"Dad? Do you know that when I fart sometimes, it's like thunder?"
[Music drowned out by howling.]
