8th-grade boy: "Let me start over.  I was hustling it a bit."
Me: "Are you going to carve pumpkins this year for Halloween?" 
9th-grade boy: "Nah...." 
Me: "That's not a tradition for you?"
9th-grade boy: "No, my tradition is to hide in the bushes and throw hard candy at people." 
7th-grade boy: "I put on a new reed today, and it tasted like a chip!"
Senior Boy: "I lost my mouthpiece over break and found it yesterday.  I practiced my balls off...."
