PAT AND MIKE CAME TO A PERSIMMON TREE (A WILD FRUIT
TREE). PAT SAYS, "LET'S CLIMB UP IN THE PERSIMMON
TREE AND EAT PERSIMMONS." MIKE SAYS, "PAT, YOU
KNOW I CAN'T CLIMB TREES." SO PAT CLIMBS UP THE TREE
AND WAS EATING PERSIMMONS. MIKE SAYS, "HEY, PAT, THROW
ME DOWN ONE, THROW ME DOWN ONE." PAT WOULD TOSS HIM
DOWN ONE AND KEEP EATING. MIKE WAS BEGGING HIM TO
THROW DOWN MORE. WHEN PAT DID, MIKE WOULD BACK OFF
AND CATCH IT IN HIS MOUTH. PAT SAW A LITTLE TREE
FROG UP THERE. HE SAYS, "HEY, MIKE, HERE'S ONE
BUT IT'S A LITTLE CROOKED." "COME-ON, PITCH IT
DOWN," SAYS MIKE, AS HE OPENS HIS MOUTH. "IT'S
A LITTLE CROOKED," SAYS PAT. "CHOMP, CHOMP,
CHOMP, CROOKED OR STRAIGHT," MIKE SAID
"(ILLEGIBLE WORDS) DOWN."
