<p class=MsoNormal>I been going to the beach on da weekends and that is so much
fun. We run and run and then lay in the sand. One time I was so
tired I peed laying down in the sand. Mama thought it was funny but what
a guy that too tired supposed to do? Dis past weekend I cleaned all the
birds that land on my beach off from it. It was a tiring job. I
even chased sumthin mama called shadows of da birds. But it be MY beach
and I no like the birds land on it. Sometimes I gots to go in da water to
get rid of them pesky things.<o:p></o:p></p>
