T-Rex: Once upon a time there was this really great cereal. It was oats in the shape of an "o", sweetened, and inside the "o"s there were clusters of tasty nuts!
T-Rex: It was SO good!
T-Rex: And then they took the cereal off the market and this little kid could never find it again. Okay, it was me. I was the kid. I looked and looked and was convinced all the grocery stores were hiding it somewhere. But it was gone, and that one box of the cereal was all I ever had. I never stopped looking, however, and yesterday I found it - under a different name, but with all the same ingredients!
Utahraptor: And? How was it?
T-Rex: WAY too sweet, Utahraptor.
T-Rex: It wasn't to my taste at ALL. And the kicker is I remembered it as being even sweeter! I realized that my tastes had changed long ago - that I'd never again be able to enjoy that cereal I remembered so vividly. I'd been chasing a dream that had somehow become impossible when I wasn't looking.
T-Rex: And for who? For a child I knew decades ago, a child who had long since faded into adulthood - into me.
T-Rex: Anyway bottom line I hate to see food go to waste so I poured the rest through your mail slot
