tbontob notices Taz sneaking out, and decides to vacate the room for the same reason.

Angels dancing on the head of a pin? Before I answer, would you tell me what type of PIN?

*Taz and tbontob are sneaking away from the thread, looking over their shoulders to see if anyone spotted them when they bump into a pair of legs. They look up to see Dogscoff standing in the way with a Big Gun, a very serious conuntenance and some expressive but utterly inappropriate Capital Letters."

Thank you D. Now listen up students. If you wish to calculate the number of angels that can dance on the head of a pin, you must first come up with some observable, quantifiable, scientific evidence that conclusivly proves the exsistance of pins.

oleg sneaks from behind and prick Geo with a pin thus conclusively proving its existence.

No, that only proves the existence of a prickly matter that has punctured Geo's back using pressure. It could be a nail, for all we know.

Edit: Don't know why I wrote tension.

Lemme out of here!

(tbontob covertly looks at dogscoff to see if he can outpace a speeding bullet to the door!)
