lady said, “we understand that Mr. Tony will be writing a book about his life story that will be made into a movie. So I guess he will be famous when this is all over.”
Well, that’s pretty much what happened. Maybe I’ll start liking asparagus. Maybe me and the guys will count some chickens before they hatch. Maybe my mom will get a new job as a brain surgeon. Maybe somebody will invent a homework machine. Maybe Mr. Klutz will grow some hair on his head. Maybe we’ll tunnel out of the school. Maybe pogo-juggling, egg-jogging, and pizza-wrestling will become Olympic sports. Maybe Mr. Tony will stop smoking chains. Maybe we’ll figure out why army guys say “Ten-hut.” Maybe Mr. Tony will take us boating. Maybe the sequel to Halloween will become a real holiday. Maybe Mr. Tony will break some other record to get into The Guinness Book of World Records .
But it won’t be easy!
