Summary: "Micky, you gotta be out of your gosh-darned mind!"
Mike spat out the strange and repulsive solution that he'd been asked to taste. "Oh, Mick, that's terrible," he groaned. "Who the heck ever taught ya how to make a milkshake?!"
"I didn't think it'd be that bad," Micky protested.
"You really thought you could make a salt water taffy milkshake outta salt and water, and it wouldn't taste awful? Micky, you gotta be out of your gosh-darned mind!"
Micky slumped at the table, dejected. "It made perfect sense to me. People love salt water taffy. People love milkshakes. What's so peculiar about a combination like that?"
"There's probably someone out there who had the same idea, and made it work," his bandmate replied. "In your hands, though...oh, brother!"
