C: I have a theater in my head, with little people.
Mom: Oh?
C: Yes, it plays Gunsmoke all the time. Wait, what is today?
Mom: Uh, Thursday.
C: Well, on Tuesdays it plays Looney Tunes. All Bugs Bunny, ’cause he’s the funniest.
Mom: Really.
C: Yes. Wait, what month is it?
Mom: It is July.
C: Yep, July is Gunsmoke.
