Hold on a minute, Brian. Would you believe the stupidity of it, someone smoking right next to the barn with all this hay lying around. Where is Health and Safety when you need them?
I'm just going out there to tell him ... doesn't he know there's a mother and two small children in here, one of them the Son of God at that! We don't want an accident now, do we?
