38. That's Fashion p.249

 
    Andy and Jess are at a fashion designer's party.
A: My God, Jess. What's that on Betty's head?
J: Beats me. How weird! I think it's a new kind of hat.
A: Oh, really? If you ask me, it's more like a bird's nest. How stupid it looks!
J: you think so? Hey, wait a minute. You might be right. There's something moving in the nest... I mean, hat.
A: Gee whiz! It's a bird.
J: Holy cow! How does she keep it from flying away?
A: Don't you see! She's got it fastened to a gold chain around her neck.
J: If the bird were strong enough, it could fly her to the moon, so to speak.
A: That would really be funny.
J: Well, that's fashion!
