(We're all shopping at Target. I'm lagging behind with Tink, who spies a hammer hanging on one of the sale racks)
Tink: Look daddy. (Indicates hammer. It's a kind of funky green and caught her attention)
Me: Yeah.... you know what, I would do if I had a hammer? I'd hammer in the morning. Why...I'd hammer in the evening - all over this land! I'd hammer out danger...I'd even hammer out a warning. I'd hammer out love between all of our brothers... All - yes all - over this land. (I end my dramatic monologue with my arms spread wide, encompassing the great and awe-inspiring world around us)
Tink: (pause). What in the world are you talking about?
