“He gives me a low smile. "You know, sometimes I wish I had your life. But I'm sure I wouldn't be much good at it."
"I'm not that goos at it myself."

“We were playing our favourite game: Avoid Death.
"So a poisonous snake has just bitten your left arm -- what do you do?" Joni asked.
"I try to suck the poison out."
"But that doesn't work. It's spreading up your arm..."
"So I take my axe and chop off my arm."
"But once you chop off your arm, you're bleeding to death."
"So I pull of my shirt and tie it around the stump to stop the blood."
"But a vulture smells the blood and comes swooping down at you."
"So I use my right arm to pick up the left arm that I cut off, and I use it ti beat the vulture away!"
[...]
"But the vulture pulls your arm out of your hand and begins to hit you with it...”

“It's like my grandma used to say: Just when you think life's got you in a gutter, a tornado will come along and destroy your house."
"And then you rebuild?" I ask.
"Well, she never mentioned that part, but I suppose it could happen.”
