“I thought I had ten eggs,” she says. “But now there are only nine. Did you take one?” “No,” I say. I really didn’t. I’m innocent this time.

“Oh, thank you, Dr. McGill,” Thomas Jefferson says. Then he writes the Declaration of Independence. (No, not really.)

“It sounds like she’s in real capable hands,” Thomas Jefferson says. Then he makes the Louisiana Purchase. (No, not really.)

“No, I just appreciate you calling, sugar,” Thomas Jefferson says. Then he funds the Lewis and Clark expedition. Okay, I need to stop this.

Thomas Jefferson is a true American hero. First he helped found the country and now he’s getting me out of a conversation with Alyssa.
