Tomorrow I'll drink the joy juice.
That'll shake things up, inside and outside this skull.

A lot of people are all right until they get success poisoning.
The first time I saw Mr. Natural blast a big fat cottonmouth moccasin out of the pond with his goose gun, I thought he was just playing Davy Crockett— then I tried it myself.
