David:       Oh, yeah. I guess I need a pair of gloves.

Susan:       Right. And how about a hat? You’ve got a great yellow and black ski hat. Take that.

David:       Oh, right. Okay. Where is my hat? Great. I found it. And here are my black gloves. Ahhh…here’s my blue sweater. I’ll take this too. Susan, where’s my yellow and green ski sweater?

Susan:       I thought you only needed one sweater.

David:       Well, yeah, but…It’s always good to have two. Let’s see. What else? Maybe I’ll take this…

Susan:       David, our hotel has a spa and a swimming pool. Take a swimming suit. Your blue one.

Susan:       I thought you only needed a ski jacket, a sweater, and a pair of ski boots…

David:       no, actually, what I need is a bigger suitcase. I think I’ll take an extra pair of jeans, and maybe a few more shirts…

Susan:       David!
