Petey sure has a thing with shoebox dioramas.

Actually, a soil erosion diorama could be kinda cool.

They could do both.

Petey wants to make a shoebox diorama? Quelle surprise!

Alice’s response; enthusiasm or sarcasm.,.

That’s right, Alice! In Petey’s grade Show & Tell is called a “Dioraminization”! This would be pouring water on a box o’ dirt!

20 years later… “Gentlemen, I have taken the numbers from our last quarter and compiled them for this presentation into a shoebox diorama…”

Petey’s sure to win. He’ll just overwhelm Andre with inaction… ☺

Actually, a box of dirt is more valuable than a higher education. Except for the fact that a higher education will set you back about a quarter of a million dollars. Not counting grad school.

Oh how I miss Richard! That man had such a humorous insight into young minds. Every once in a while, as I reread his artwork, it suddenly makes me smile….usually just when i most need a little joy to start the day.

Petey’s got to get the dirt on André.

One’s got a knack for dioramas; one’s got a knack for diarrhea (of the mouth). Don’t get any ideas Petey, that would not make a good diorama.

Try to see it from Andre’s point of view, Petey. He was right and you were wrong. Alice nails it: a box of dirt!
