“Shh, quiet on stage! We’re starting. Marcley,turn off your iPod. Teeny-Tiny Millie, come down from up there. We need all mice right here-- right now. Take your positions.
"Welcome to the Mice on Main website. I’m Marvin Mouse."
“HOORAY! – oops, sorry, Dad, that’s for later, isn’t it?”
“That’s OK, Mitch. I’ll start again. Welcome to the Mice on Main website. I’m Marvin Mou’---WHAT is going on back there?”
“Yum. Ah, nothing, Marvin. We’re just having a little cheese pizza.”
“Just having a little cheese pizza? Uncle Miles, you mice can’t be eating pizza while we’re trying to welcome everyone to our website. What will people think?”
“Right, Marvin. I’ll put the pizza back in the box. We’ll wait until after the welcome.”
“Good. Is every mouse ready? Is the music off? Is the pizza back in the box? Do you think we can do our welcome sometime today? It’s just a welcome. I’m not asking for a miracle here.”
“Now, Marvin, don’t get too upset. You know how difficult it is getting nine mice all in one place at the same time. Calm down, dear.”
“Yes, Maggie, I’m trying, really I am. We’ll begin again.
"Welcome to the Mice on Main website. I’m Marvin Mouse. To show you how happy we are to have you here, we’ve prepared an enthusiastic greeting. Aunt Mifflin, I’m turning it over to you.”
“Thanks, Marvin. Attention, mice. Let's make it sparkle! All together on three: One-Two-Three!"
