SO PAT AND MIKE WERE GOING ALONG ONE DAY AND FOUND A
LITTLE WATCH. A PRETTY LITTLE GOLD WATCH AND THEY
DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS. ONE HANDED IT TO THE OTHER
AND SAID THAT IT WAS PRETTY. FINALLY, MIKE HELD IT
TO HIS EAR AND HEARD IT TICK-TICK. SO HE SHOVED
IT OVER TO PAT AND SAID, "LISTEN AT IT TICK-TICK-TICK.
THAT IS A TIC." THEY PUT IT ON A BIG STONE AND TOOK
A LITTLE STONE AND SMASHED IT ALL TO PIECES. MIKE
SAYS, "THAT TIC WILL NEVER BITE ANYONE."
