"Hi, Quonset. Can I talk to you about something...?"
"Sure, Don! What is it?"
"I need to get away for the weekend... sort of a mini-vacation, I s'pose. Can you recommend a nice place?"
"Funny you should ask! I just got back from up down by Prunedale area, and had myself a HECK of a time! Don, if I know you- I think you'd like Prunedale just fine."
"I don't know... I'm a sensitive man and I think I would want something a little more friendly than Prunedale..."
"Don- say no more. I know just the place... just close those baby-blues of yours and picture... COPPEROPOLIS."
"Boy, that's a mouthful."
"That's what SHE said!"
"Who?"
"My mother-in-law."
"...your mother-in-law...?"
"Yeah, she was just asking about fancy towns to visit and so I told her about COPPEROPOLIS."
"Gee, Quonset... I don't mean to be such a cantankerous old huff, but I guess I was looking for something a little more... old-fashioned, if ya catch my drift."
"Don- consider your drift CAUGHT because I've got JUST the place. Close those cute little baby bunny-rabbit blues of yours and picture this little slice of heaven- PUMPKIN CENTER."
"Quonset, as much as I love PUMPKIN CENTER- and I do... I just want something more... well, more RURAL."
"Shoot, Don! Why didn't ya say so! Try Loomis- you'll thank me Monday morning!"
"Loomis, huh?.... Hmmm...."
Later that weekend...
"Boy, Quonset sure was right about Loomis! This is my kind of town! C'mon, guys- let's go see the sights!"
