    No problem!

    Just call "Stretchy's rent-a-teenager"!

    They are each guaranteed to play ball, get all their clothes smelly (with unidentifiable substances smeared on them) and after the game they'll come to your house. They'll leave rank sneakers in the middle of the living room and their clothes scattered down the hall. They'll lay on your couch and take over the remote... flipping between Sportscenter, MTV and some show that has girls barely dressed. All the while scratching themselves. They'll empty your fridge and then ask "what's for dinner?" They'll make sure your car never has more than an eighth of a tank in it and they'll always be needing that $20. At least half of the times you speak to them they won't hear you, partly because they have some kind of electronic device plugged into their ears and or they just ain't listening to your old dumb self.

    Rental fee is just $10!.... return fee is $1000!

    All joking aside... I know where you're coming from Plate... I miss mine too.
