"Smush?" Mogey asked one day as he was deboning a salmon. "Why does pepper make you sneeze?"
"What are you trying to say?" Smush fired back. "Last time I checked, it makes lots of people sneeze!"
"Indeed," Mogey said, "but why?"
"What do I look like - the pepper commissioner?" Smush demanded. "Am I some sort of pepper sorcerer? I can't help you with every little pepper question you dream up!"
It was just about this time that Mogey remembered an incident, years earlier, when a rogue peppercorn had found it's way into Smush's nostril and caused him to sneeze so hard that a nearby ptarmigan was bowled over and sprained its ankle quite badly.
