Today I am a man
Finally, I've entered adulthood: Today I saw some of the neighbors' kids lighting books on fire in the back yard. Doing my best impression of an authority figure, I asked the kids what they thought they were doing, whether their parents knew, etc. Then I told them not to burn books, and not to start fires in the back yard lest they burn down half the neighborhood. What happened to me? I used to be the guy starting fires, and now I'm putting them out.

Indeed, but we were never implicated in the investigation. "Cheese it, it's the cops!"

Good ol' David. It's nice to have a fire-safety-conscious fall guy when you need one.
