If all were to go swimmingly…

Sometimes it is interesting, and quite fun, to think about things you say (or hear), out of context.

Take the following quote from Matt:

…funky spunk was a signature event for me…

…why a duck?  Do they lay eggs?

…Mario is magic…

And this one… just explains itself- in or out of context.
