Emmieism's

A frustrated Eric and Mom were pleading with Emmie to finish her dinner, 
Mom:  Emmie, please eat.  There are starving children in this World.

Emmie:  Ok.  Why don't we just send them this?  (motioning to her plate)

Mom was out of town; leaving Eric in charge:

Eric:  You need to take a shower or bath this evening.

Emmie:  OK.  I choose bath.

Eric:  Do you know how to do that on your own?

Emmie:  Yeah, I do.  Don't tell Mom though.  When she does it for me, it's paradise.
