“Daddy, can you get me a jackhammer? And a boxing glove, a small metal disk that will actually fit inside the boxing glove, a welding torch, a stand for the jackhammer, a shrink ray, and I also will need a box, wrapping paper, ribbon, and a sign, and some markers…. Wait, I already have the markers. And the sign, too.”

“And we shouldn’t ask any questions, right?”

“Oh, and I also need a light sensor.”
