Alice: What's all that stuff in front of your house? Dill: My brothers opened a lemonade stand. Alice: I love lemonade! Dill: Then they expanded into chips, hot dogs, candy and power drinks. Dill: Then bait and tackle, beer and wine, fireworks, souvenirs and automotive supplies. Dill: Then finally car detailing and a large animal clinic and taxidermy studio. Dill: That's when my dad put his foot down. Alice: Darn! I wanted some lemonade!
