A monsterous light snake
I've just procured ten tickets for the Niles Canyon Railway Train of Lights. I am bringing as many people as I am allowed to bring. not everyone knows each other, but it ought to be good none the less. Both my parents are coming. I don't have both of them in the same place at the same time very often. My youngest sister Julie and my stepmother Nancy are also coming. Rich, Jeremy (who is bringing someone with him), Michelle and her mother too will be there. I suppose I am coming too. I don't know that anyone else on the list has met Michelle yet. We'll fix that soon enough. I am just glad there were tickets left. There almost weren't.

Wait, there better not be snakes. ;-) Well, it's cool you arranged all this. I look forward to meeting everyone.
Whoa. I never said I'd ride your "light snake", buddy. I don't know exactly what sort of guy you think I am....
P.S. - If I have learned anything from my friend Bob it is that friends of his who I have not met are merely elaborate figments of his imagination until he can produce them.
Yeah, now that you mention it, I actually wonder if I exist. Am I just someone you made up, Bob?
You think I know? I haven't quite proved I exist yet.
Which brings up an interesting point... if a friend who can not prove he, himself, exists produces a friend who purportedly does not exist, isn't that like multiplying by zero? A friend of a non-existent friend by default does not exist also? Is this the transitive property of existence?
What if they eat your cookies?
Cookies have already been proven to disappear by themselves, so first you would have to prove that the cookies existed to begin with.
I've heard of this. It's a classic quantum-cookie problem. You have a cookie jar. Inside the jar either there are cookies or there are no cookies. But by opening the jar - the cookie will be destroyed (eaten by you), so you must work from the assumption that there is simultaneously a jar full of cookies and an empty jar of cookies loitering in your kitchen. Can you prove there was not a cookie? What about if you eat a cookie in a different jar made from the same batch as the cookie in your mystery jar? Are they so linked that the cookie in your mystery jar will change state?
I've also heard of this. However, nobody eats MY cookies. Proven factoid.
Also, I am hungry, therefore I am. Been postulating this for decades. I would've thought you bright boys remembered this as well.
Hi Michelle!! Try not to pick a fight with the laughing guy in the corner.
Do you think there will be cookies on the train?
Actually, there will be cookies. Also hot chocolate, coffee, tea, and who knows what else. Hmmm...hot chocolate...
