Young Entrepreneurs; Monday, Period 6 [ 04/20 ].

"Okay, guys," Turtle jumped right into business once everyone was collected and had their hands on some coffee and-or baked goods. "Today's our very last meeting. I know. Things really flew by, what with zombies and kids and everything, but, luckily, I've got our kits all put together. So it's up to you, this week and next, to try to sell some of them, and the money will go toward the club next semester. Go ahead and take some before you leave. Other than that, stick around, hang out, or go ahead and take off to go work on exams or whatever. And good luck on those, too! It's been great having everyone in club. It's been a good group!"

"Amen!" declared Turtle, reaching for a fork. "Seriously, the day you ever stop making pies is going to be a truly sad day indeed, Ned."

"Let's hope I never lose my hands." Ned winced. "That was morbid of me to say, wasn't it?"

"Just a little," Turtle admitted with a shrug. "But, if anything, maybe, somehow, you could learn how to make pies with your mind."

"With my mind?" Ned repeated. "Like telepathic pies?"

"Do you think telepathic pies might not taste as good as handmade pies?"

Hey, when you were onto an entirely feasible (for here) new business venture, you asked the silly questions like that.

"I think...you know, I don't know," he answered honestly. "I'd assume you'd have all the ingredients and you'd just mix them together with your mind rather than your hands. I can't see it being too different."

"True," mused Turtle, "on one hand. On the other hand, homemade pies usually taste better than machine made pies, but it's all still generally the same prcess."

"There might be more satisfaction with homemade, handmade pies?" Ned tried.

Turtle nodded. "Plus, making them with your mind might take some work, unless there's something you're not telling us, Ned."

"Yeah, I can't bake anything with my mind," he said, snickering. "If I could, I'm sure I'd be a lot more interesting."

"I think you're plenty interesting, Ned," Turtle assured him.

"But I'd have stories to tell if I could make things with my mind." Never mind the things he could do with his finger.

"But, instead, you have stories of things you make with your hands," Turtle proved it by taking a big bite of pie.

"Someone without hands would be very impressed by that," she added, mouth still full of pie.

"Would someone without hands really wanna hear about how awesome my hands are?" Ned wondered.

"I considered that," Turtle admitted. "They'd either be impressed, or they'd want to stab your face. Lucky for you, it's hard to hold a knife if you don't have hands."

"Hopefully they wouldn't have compensated and been able to use their feet to stab me," Ned said, wincing.

"Ooooh," said Turtle. "I didn't think about that. I'll bet they probably could; they would learn to use their feet better to make up for the lack of hands, the same way blind people can hear better than people who can see."

"So, I'd be getting stabbed any which way," he said and laughed. "Ow."

"I think," noted Turtle, "this is the strangest conversation I've ever had that was inspired by pie, Ned."

And she dated Jeff. That was impressive.

"Sorry," he said and laughed again. "I mean, it seemed like a natural tangent when it started."

"Oh, don't apologize," Turtle chuckled a little. "You've still got a long way to go before reaching weirdest conversation ever. But pie...I mean, Jeff and I did talk about the potential dangers of that one you made me for my birthday, but I think handless stabbings trumps that."

"Yeah, that was a big pie," he recalled, nodding. "I thought it was going to fall over or sink or something when I was getting it to your party."

"I think Jeff was actually afraid of it."
