(Buddy, Spike and Butch enter)

Buddy: Hi Spike, hi Butch. How was your summer vacation?

Spike: Good, and how about you Buddy Barrel?

Buddy: Good Spike. What about you, Butch?

Butch: Well, I guess most of the summer has been pretty good except a new family just moved into the neighborhood and I haven't been able to sleep very well.

Buddy: Hmmm. What seems to be the problem, Butch?

Butch: Well the mother just had a set of twin babies!

Spike: Oh boy! Probably screamin' and cryin' all through the night, huh?

Butch: Yeah!

Spike: Boy I hate that!

Buddy: Are they twin boys or twin girls?

Butch: One's a boy and one's a girl!

Spike: How do you know?

Butch: I've seen them carrying them in and out of the house. One is all in blue and the other is dressed in pink!

Spike: Hey Buddy, Why do people dress baby boys in blue and girls in pink?

Buddy: Well, I ...uh. Hmmm, I...

Spike: …Because they're too young to dress themselves! Ha ha....

Butch: (laughs too)

Buddy: That's a good one, Spike!

Spike: Hey Butch, now that the nights are getting cooler, maybe you'll be able to sleep better by closing your window at night.

Butch: Good idea!

Buddy: Remember boys and girls to bring in your buddy barrels next week to help the missionaries.

Butch: And close your windows when it's cool.

Spike: Or when it's noisy too!

Buddy: See you all next time!
