Favorite quote:

Samantha Spinner’s uncle Paul disappeared and here’s what he left: 

• Samantha’s sister got a check for $2,400,000,000. 

• Samantha’s brother got the New York Yankees. 

• Samantha got a rusty red umbrella with a tag hanging off its worn handle.  The tag says “Watch out for the RAIN.” 

Thanks a lot, Uncle Paul.
