"We interrupt this program for an emergency

"We interrupt this program for an emergency broadcast. President Trump's burrito bombed, so he declared war on Mexico. Chef swears Lo Mein is ok, but stay tuned. Back to the game."

…I'm sorry, that's 15 KITTENS just born moments ago. We now return to the previous interruption already in progress...don't know at this time if the possible upcoming interruption

Will produce ginger kitties, torties or little tigers. We shall see. The magi knew what they were doing when they served the earl grey tea with scones. One or two kittens stay!

But really, they had to sell most of Will's purebred Maine Coons. One flame-mix tortie went for $2,000 to a breeder in Lithuania. The magi's tea was almost brewed.

But at the last moment it got concocted instead. Baltazar was the first to notice the change but kept silent about it as an example of just discernment. Next Gaspar also noticed

prepared for this and incense was the best gift I could find on short notice! And anyway it's the thought that counts". Balthazar and Gaspar snickered and sneered at Melchior,

and in bird voices taunted him: “Cheap! Cheap!” Melchior dug in his pockets, frantically looking for another gift. There was only lint, which further delighted Gaspar & Balthazar.
