It was the end of summer vacation. Straw had done everything he could think of. He was bored. So he went over to play with someone he had been warned to stay away from. "Let's play checkers, "said Straw. "Okay I'm the red ones I get to move first I get two moves and you get one, "said Matches. "Forget it," said Straw. "Let's play ping-pong instead." "Okay I get the good paddle you stand on that side I get to serve first and you have to close one eye," said Matches. "Nevermind," said Straw. "Maybe we should just watch TV." "Okay you sit over there on the floor I'll sit on the couch I get the remote and we have to watch my favorite video," said Matches. "I think I hear my mom calling," said Straw. "I'd better go." MORAL: Dont play with matches.
