“Are you sure this is the way we’re supposed to be picked for our new cabinet positions?”
“Am I sure Rona? Oh my, of course I’m sure. I think musical chairs is the fairest and might I add, a really fun way to pick a cabinet.”
“Well how come everyone else doesn’t have to run around these chairs?”
“That’s a good question. You see, we started before you got here. Yeah, yeah that’s it. We started before you got here and they got to uh, keep their old positions because you were late. Yeah, yeah, that’s it, you were late.”
“I’m twenty minutes early!”
“Are you sure about that?”
“Of course I’m sure!”
“Just like when you were sure that the Liberals spent 100 million on Kyoto when in fact they hadn’t spent a single penny?”
“Oh so you’re going to bring that up again? Why aren’t you punishing Peter for his dog remark?”
“This isn’t about Peter. It’s about the election, but don’t admit that to anyone. Besides, there’s no proof he ever said it. Unlike your comment that we were on track for meeting our Kyoto obligations but weren’t going to meet our target... what the hell was that?”
“I was pretty sure.”
“Pretty sure?”
“Tell you what. If you can grab a chair after this song is finished, you get a cabinet position. Are you game?”
“Of course, I’ve got the Knack now.”
“You’re sure?”
“Yes.”
“My sure Rona. For a bonus can you name it?”
“Uh...no.”
