%%--> Josh’s mom always said Josh was the kind of kid who “would rather eat his dessert first.” But what was the dessert here? Stealing a bunch of gold, or beating up a couple of nimbuses? They were both dessert! And you know what, Josh’s mom was wrong. He wouldn’t rather eat his dessert first. He’d rather eat his dessert first and last. Otherwise you’re just eating something gross like carrots at the end of the night, when you should be eating dessert. In fact, why eat carrots at all? Why not just eat all dessert? And that was the great thing about the options that lay before him: They were all dessert!
