[edit] Selected quotes

  • Narrator - "once upon a time, or maybe it should be twice upon a time, because this story begins where most stories end, there was a bit of excitement up on cloud seven, on this particular morning, the head angel had called a conference to talk about Jeff and Mary and their guardian angel Wilbur was late"
  • Mary - "I wish my living room was all redone, new drapes, new rugs, oh this is fun, it's nice to have a telephone to blend with my new drapes and rugs, a living room that’s all are own"
