“Oli nii külm, et isegi lumekakud läksid puuõõnde sooja. Maja taga lõdises kuuskümmend lumememme ja ootas sula, et ujuda lõunasse. Õue minnes jäätusid silmamunad. Jääkarud saatsid kaastundeavalduse ja konserve.”

“„See olen ainult mina, vabandust müra pärast,” ähkis koer. „Mul on täna lihtsalt ainus vaba hetk. Mirjamit pole kodus.”
„Mis sa seal teed?” uudistas Piia naabrit. Parun oli tavaliselt väga kuninglik, aga täna näis ta kuidagi räsitud olemisega. „Nad panid mu di-eedile, et ma kõhnemaks läheks,” kostis Parun mornilt. „Loomaarst ütles Mirjamile, et ma olen üle-kaaluline. Aga see di-eet on üks õudne hädaorg. Ma olen kogu aeg kuri ... ja kõht koriseb.” „Kas sa sellepärast teedki mürglit?” küsis Piia kaastundlikult. Tema meelest oli Parun täpselt parajas mõõdus – pehme ja vetruv, hea selga ronida ja kallistada. „Ma ei mürgelda, ma treenin!” solvus Parun. „Näiteks praegu tegin hüppeid – sada diivani peale ja sada maha. Telekas räägiti, et hüppamine on di-eedi vastu väga kasulik.” Parun naeris võidukalt ja ta hambad särasid.”

“When I was a child, adults would tell me not to make things up, warning me of what would happen if I did. As far as I can tell so far, it seems to involve lots of foreign travel and not having to get up too early in the morning.”
