Sheldonista Geoff D. sent in this Mind of a Ninja: Body of a Manatee sighting from Manchester, England. Santa, I guess, is a fan of real ale? I always pictured him more of a milk-n-cookies kinda guy...but I love the shot, Geoff! Please make sure to thank "Santa" for me. :)
GRAMP: Why did you leave your spinach for last? Eat it first, and be done with it. ARTHUR: What?? You crazy. …Does a condemned man save his last meal for after the execution? No!! You save the worst for last. FLACO

GRAMP: Oh, good lord. You act like spinach is the worst thing in the world. ARTHUR (off-panel): It is! I hate it!
THE HOUSE (at the table)

GRAMP (off-panel): Hey! In this house we don't hate things. We dislike things. ARTHUR: Look, we may be family, but we ain't blood. ..and I hates me some spinach. FLACO

GRAMP: Heh-heh. That's pretty witty actually. ARTHUR (off-panel): Witty enough to get me out of eating the spinach?
THE HOUSE (at the table)

GRAMP: Not that witty, no. ARTHUR: Wait... so that is an option? Um...um... "A priest, a rabbi and some spinach walk into a bar..." ...and...um... Oh man. This is not a joke that writes itself.
