The stench from Jeffrey's magnificent tonsil stone collection had gotten out of hand. His house now smelled worse than that crazy cat lady's down the street. His mother, who loved him dearly and always supported him, had to do something about this. She tried to get him interested in other hobbies like football, chess, stamp collecting, or even catching lizards. Nothing worked. Little Jeffery's passion was tonsil stones and there was nothing that his parents could do about it. He took great care in his collection, even naming each individual stone. But this was too much.

So the family went on one of those week-long trips to Disney. The plan was going perfectly and even Jeffery seemed to be having fun. Then the phone call came. Their house was in ashes. Everything was gone…just like they planned. Weeks later, however, while temporarily living in a Holiday Inn Express, Jeffery's mom caught a whiff of that familiar, yet repulsive smell. Down at the bottom of Jeffery's Ninja Turtles lunchbox, a Ziploc bag full of fermenting stones exploded. That's when his mom realized that the vacation, the burning of the house, their complete sacrifice…was for nothing.
