Barbara: Okay Grandpa, just tell me as much as you can remember.
Grandpa: About what in partickler
Barbara: You know, your life. Family history. I want to get it all on record.
Grandpa: What is the aim of this record
Barbara: For... for history. For future generations. So I can share it with my grandkids someday.
Grandpa: You fixin to mark this in history for all time forever?
Barbara: Hopefully!
Grandpa: All right, then set this down: I live with a woman name of Mabel Herschfeld who is a type of creature to eat the last piece of carrot stick and put the empty bag back in the icebox. This speaks of some manner of *deficit*.

Mabel Herschfeld: Barbara dear, am I going to have a chance to contribute to your record as well?
Grandpa: It's too late! The account that comes first is *trusted*.
