During a good manners and etiquette class, the teacher says to her 
students: [play "Alert"]"\pit=400\If you were courting a well educated young girl from a prominent family and during a dinner for two you needed to go to the toilet, what would you say to her?"
[play "Blink"]
Mike replies:[play "Explain"] "\pit=300\Wait a minute, I'm going for a pee."
[play "Blink"]
The teacher says : [play "Decline"]"\pit=400\That would be very rude and improper on your part."
[play "Blink"]
Charlie replies: [play "Think"]"\pit=150\I'm sorry I need to go to the toilet, I'll be back in a minute."
[play "Blink"]
The teacher says: [play "Acknowledge"]"\pit=400\That's much better but to mention the word ''toilet'' during a meal, is unpleasant."
[play "Blink"]
And Billy says: [play "Pleased"]"\pit=60\My dear, please excuse me for a moment. I have to go shake hands with a personal friend, whom, I hope, to be able to introduce to you after \EMP\dinner."
[play "Think"]
The teacher passed out..
