What's New?

"Um, hey, Dad?  Is there anything new for breakfast?" Logan asked.

"Not today," I said, shaking my head.

"We could buy some Fruity Pebbles," he suggested.

"Fruity Pebbles?"

I wondered where this was coming from as he had never had so much as a Pebble before in his life.

"Yes, they have my favorite colors, pink, green and blue."

"Well sure," I said, "but how do you know they'll taste any good?"

"Um, because," he said, with disgust at my apparent stupidity, "they have my favorite colors, pink, green and blue."

Oh, right, 'cause that's how it works.
