Pons and Ned at a New Years Eve party Ned: Ain't it great to see a nuther day end, Pons? Pons: You mean a year, Ned. It's almost January. Ned: Oh, then it's the end of the month. Pons: Well, yes, but also the entire year. Ned: No kiddin'? So I can end a day, a month, and a year at the same time? Pons: Sure, Ned. It wasn't long ago that we ended a day, month, year, decade, century, and millennium all on the same day. Ned: And on the same mell-M and M? Pons: No. It would have been the next mell - um - millenium. Ned: Then we're talkin' about the NEXT day, not the same day. Pons: It's the same thing. Ned: Like a Next Sex marriage is the same as a Same-Sex one? Pons: What? Ned: If I'm next in line at the store, it's like being same in line, but there's some lady with a ton a groc'ries who thinks she's next when, in the re-al-eddy of time, we's really the same. Pons: That is... I don't know what that is, Ned. It is not right. Ned: So I ought to be ahead a her by a day or week -- Right? Pons: Ah -- Hey! Look, Ned! The clock is about to strike midnight! Ned: Then it will be a next mell-M&M? Pons: Not quite, Ned. Ned: Same mell-M&M? Pons: Well, yes. Ned: Same year? Pons: No, Ned. Ned: Next year? Pons: Right! Right, right, right! Ned: So where am I in that groc'ry line?   Write A Review Pays one point and 2 member cents. You need to login or register to write reviews. It's quick! We only ask four questions to new members.
