Adam 's' Apple

 Adam :	Eve , what are you doing with that apple?
 Eve  : About to have breakfast, of course. What do you think I want 
	to do with it - make history?
 Adam : And I suppose it just fell on your head.
 Eve  : You'll never discover anything that way.
 Adam : You mean you picked it off a tree?
 Eve  : Of course! The one by the river.
 Adam : You mean the one surrounded by an electric fence?
 Eve  : Yes. But they're waiting for electrons to be discovered 		
	before they turn it on.
 Adam : Shocking! Don't you know that that apple is forbidden?
 Eve  : Is it hazardous to my health in any way?  An apple a day 		
	keeps the medical insurance away, you know.
 Adam : But not this one!  Surely you can find some other tree.
 Eve  : Alright, you find em, I'll buy em.
 Adam : Buy? Is that one of your inane neologisms, along with 'deer', 		
	'sky', 'pig', 'taxes' and all those other concoctions?
 Eve  : One day you may understand.  In the meantime, this colloquy 		
	isn't filling my stomach.  Look here, apple + Eve = yum.
 Adam : Do that and we'll be on the eve of appellating thorns and 		
	weeds.
 Eve  : Fiddlesticks!
 Adam : There you go again, naming everything you see.
 Eve  : I've had enough of your whining - now watch and weep.
 Adam : Weep?  What is that %@#*!& word?
 Eve  : How sinful!  You mustn't use swear words!
 Adam : What's sin?
 Eve  : Burp!
