“But why can’t I?” I whined.

“Because I SAID SO!”

“But…I found it!”

 “I SAID NO!” he roared even louder.

“Son.   You can’t play with the Earth.  I know it’s hard to believe, but there are tiny little people living there and we need to respect them.”

Tiny little people?   I peered closely.

I think my Dad was teasing me again.
