0:01:18 > 0:01:21I'll take it. I save them all.
0:01:22 > 0:01:28"You'll go on a long trip someday." It's true! I did go on a long trip!
0:01:28 > 0:01:31But the one I got was just advice.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36They're the best! Do you know what some people do to get good advice?
0:01:36 > 0:01:40- They climb high mountains in Tibet. - WIND HOWLS
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Oh, wise teacher, what is the meaning of life?
0:01:45 > 0:01:48SPEAKS TIBETAN
0:01:48 > 0:01:53Oh, no, I've forgot my Tibetan-English dictionary!
0:01:53 > 0:01:56'Some people buy tons of books.'
0:01:56 > 0:02:01- I'm looking for a book on how to become a comedian.- Sure.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05Would you like "Comedy For Dopes", "Comedy For Imbeciles"
0:02:05 > 0:02:08or "Comedy For Complete Dodos"?
0:02:09 > 0:02:13'Some people go to psychiatrists for advice.'
0:02:13 > 0:02:17I dreamed I was chasing a jelly doughnut.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- I tried to grab it, but it kept rolling away.- Uh-hm.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24- How does that make you feel?- Hungry.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29I never thought of it like that. OK, I'll keep mine.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32I already put it in here. How about this one?
0:02:32 > 0:02:37- "You've give things away too easily." - HE GASPS
0:02:48 > 0:02:52Here - the latest issue of The Frensky Star!
0:02:52 > 0:02:56I thought you'd stopped writing gossip.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01- I did. I only publish REAL news now. - "Sugar Bowl replaces Arnie."
0:03:01 > 0:03:04- Tell them about the new column. - Oh, yeah.
0:03:04 > 0:03:09Muffy, who's paying for the copying, has an advice column.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12It's called Ask Muffy.
0:03:12 > 0:03:18- I'll tell you how to solve your problems. I'm listening!- Darn!
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Why do you have branches in your locker?
0:03:21 > 0:03:27Because... Because I like trees. You got a problem with that?!
0:03:27 > 0:03:30ALL: No!
0:03:31 > 0:03:38- ARTHUR LAUGHS - "My butler's birthday is coming up, and I have no idea what to get him.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42"What's an appropriate gift?" Signed anonymous.
0:03:42 > 0:03:47- What does she answer?- "You can't go wrong with expensive chocolates."
0:03:47 > 0:03:52- That's true!- What a dumb question! Who's "anonymous", anyway?
0:03:52 > 0:03:57- Is he that geek with red hair? - It could be anyone.
0:03:57 > 0:04:02- People call themselves that if they don't wanna be found out.- Really?!
0:04:02 > 0:04:07So, someone could ask for advice and no-one would know it's them?
0:04:07 > 0:04:12That's right. Not only do I listen, I'm also discreet.
0:04:12 > 0:04:17- Now, which one of you wants to be my assistant?- Why do you need one?
0:04:17 > 0:04:22- ONE person wrote in with a problem. You!- That was to encourage people.
0:04:22 > 0:04:28Once the column gets popular, I'll need lots of help. Who will it be?
0:04:30 > 0:04:36I'll just have to find someone else to help me eat these chocolates.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40- I never recommend something without trying it.- Wait up!
0:04:40 > 0:04:45I type 10 words a minute, and can start right away!
0:04:47 > 0:04:52Still no questions! Why aren't people writing in?
0:04:52 > 0:04:58You should come up with a topic - some common problem every kid has.
0:04:58 > 0:05:04What if I came up with a topic? A common problem every kid has!
0:05:04 > 0:05:09- That's what I just said.- Got it! "What to do about split ends."
0:05:09 > 0:05:13- They can ruin a perm. - COMPUTER: 'You have mail.'

0:07:21 > 0:07:27I'll invite one friend to the show, and then invite more the next time.
0:07:27 > 0:07:32- Who told you to do that?!- Someone better at giving advice than you!
0:07:32 > 0:07:34When they write "anonymous",
0:07:34 > 0:07:37you should keep their identity a secret.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40We've got competition!

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Is it "badminton" or "badmitton"?
0:08:05 > 0:08:11People use both. Use the version you're comfortable with. OK! Thanks!
0:08:11 > 0:08:16- Why do we have to sit here? Can't we join the crowd?- Are you crazy?

0:08:35 > 0:08:39- Where is he?!- Hey, a guitar case!
0:08:39 > 0:08:43Maybe there's an advice-giving guitar inside.
0:08:44 > 0:08:49- Step away from the case!- YOU?! You're the good advice giver?!
0:08:49 > 0:08:53Someone asked me a question. I told them what I thought.
0:08:53 > 0:08:58These kids started coming here. It's kind of a drag.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02This is where I come to practise my skate tricks. Umph!
