Unfortunately, the sloth revealed, "I'm afraid I never saw them;
it all happened so fast."

Leave room in your schedule for a good nap.
Always give people a friendly greeting. A cold nose in the crotch
is most effective.
When you do something wrong, always take responsibility (as soon
as you're dragged shamefully out from under the bed).
If it's not wet and sloppy, it's not a real kiss.
