I agree with him. I believe that's our ring. I know his llama. I believe you're right. No, see. Hello, John, I'm downstoring. This is love and after. Let's see what's going on down in Pine Ridge.
Pine Ridge seems to be facing a crisis. No one has dared to go outdoors since Irvin, the lion, escaped and started besieging the town. He got loose while Lom was installing a glass partition in Irvin's cage.
The object of all this was to fool people into thinking that alum was brave enough to climb into the lion's cage at a school sociable. As we're looking on the little community today, we find alum and davener worn and weary from several days of imprisonment in the jot-and-down store.
So we're doing all we can to capture him is, Blavin. Mom? Well, we didn't let the lion loose on a purpose. Of course not. Yes, ma'am, but we... You know what we... You... Woman, talk to man's arm off.
All right. Jow, jow, jow. Good-bye, Mrs. Blevin. Granny. If one more person calls us up, this moon's gonna be wore out. What means Blevin' say along, same as the rest of them? Oh, yeah. Said if we didn't get that lion off the streets of Pine Ridge by sundown, she's gonna get the sheriff after us.
The sheriff. Well, we've been trying to get him ourselves. He's a fear to go outdoors. I'm no worried about him. What I'm worried about is how we're going to capture that line. Yeah. For any, we can't spend the rest of our lives setting in the store here while urban paces up and down the street.
