The Abbreviated Adventures of Mogey & Smush Volume CXLII

"What, in your esteemed opinion, is the best topping to put on a dish of ice cream?" Mogey asked Smush one hot summer day as he mopped his brow with his hat. The two of them were lying beneath an old hickory tree taking a brief respite from tilling the cabbage patch.

"Hundreds and thousands," Smush replied. "No doubt about it."

"I see," Mogey said thoughtfully. "Would that be rainbow hundreds and thousands or chocolate hundreds and thousands?"

"Chocolate, of course," Smush answered.

"You really get my angry sometimes, you know that Smush?" Mogey growled, donning his cap and walking back to the field muttering to himself. "Chocolate hundreds and thousands! That's tommyrot!"
