   Plot Twist

   Ketchup was a medicine and your burger had friends. Seems like nonsense but will make perfect sense after another wonderfully strange conversation with my daughter. We tackled some odd "True or False" questions and ludicrous “Would You Rather” scenarios. The questions were certainly ridiculous but the answers were even more absurd. And the conversation? Exactly as Dysfunctional as you'd expect.

   Mess in Space

   Why don’t we make buildings out of bones? Would you eat dirt flavored food? Why would anyone ask questions like these? Well, because it’s fun! Come join my daughter, Melissa, and I as we have another conversation with very little meaning but a heck of a lot of laughs.

   Aliens

   If you can meet anyone, alive or passed, real or imagined, of this world or not - who or what would you choose? It’s another great time as my daughter Melissa is back and we go down some real strange and real funny detours in the attempt to navigate the impossible.
