Mathematical!

Katherine:  I know 2+2 is 4, and 4+4 is 8, and 8+8 is 16.  But what's 16+16?

Adrienne:  32

Katherine:  But why!

Adrienne:  I don't know love.  Daddy says that numbers might be just concepts that we made up that may or may not accurately represent reality.

Katherine:  Okay. (promptly falls asleep)

Thanks Wookiefoot!

Dredged up by chance from the memory hole:

These spiritual window-shoppers,
who idly ask ‘How much is that?’ Oh, I’m just looking 

. . . 

Even if you don’t know what you want
buy something 

. . . 

Start a huge, foolish project,
like Noah

It makes absolutely no difference
what people think of you

My only regret

Seems to me you're playing hard to get.
I played a cool kid once myself,
And it's my only regret.

O'Shaughnessy's Cube

Based on careful observation of a large sample of the Purple Banshee clientele, O'Shaughnessy concluded that he could use three sets of two mutually exclusive attributes to create a universal classification system for the human content of any economic enterprise. 

Using the Herrick Exponential Rule of Sets, O'Shaughnessy found that for three sets of two mutually exclusive attributes the total number of combinations was 23. With this information he was able to construct the three- dimensional O'Shaughnessy Diagram of Economic Organization (O'Shaughnessy's Cube for short), as follows: 

Representing the total human content of the economic structure by a cube, O'Shaughnessy used his first pair of attributes to divide the structure into two parts - in front, NEAT; at the back, SLOPPY. 

The second pair of attributes divides the structure horizontally - the top LAZY; the lower BUSY. 

And the third pair divides vertically - BRIGHT to the right; STUPID to the left.

Mediator:  Could you describe his physique?
Grandfather:  Ordinary.
Grandfather:  I believe that he's fairly well-built,
Grandfather:  as all young men should be.
Grandfather:  Yes, in terms of legendary heroes, I would compare him to Hercules.
Grandfather:  In terms of gods, he's like Ares.
Grandfather:  Basically, he's built like your average person.
Mediator:  On what planet would that be considered average?
Grandfather:  Young men are meant to be buff.
Mediator:  (Grandpa must live in a world of bodybuilders.)

Mediator:  Oh, my watch is broken.
Grandfather:  You need a watch?
Grandfather:  (offers item) That should work.
Mediator:  Thank you very. . .
Mediator:  not much.
Mediator:  What is this?
Grandfather:  A wrist sundial.
Grandfather:  With a compass, you can accurately calculate the time.
Grandfather:  But it only works on sunny days.
