John: Hey Mikey, can you feel all these little bubbles?
Big Mike: Cut it out John, we have to get serious.
John: They tickle *giggle* if you hold your hands in the water like this, you can feel the bubbles, they tickle *giggle*.
Big Mike: John, man, come ON - we have to do this, the whole world is watching.
John: I can't help it, Mikey, these bubbles feel like fizz - bubbles rock - *starts laughing gleefully*.
Big Mike: John, listen - we have to focus, quit playing with the bubbles -
now - concentrate -
on the count of 3, we each do a handstand and keeping our feet together, point our toes, then scissor split, then twirl. Got it?

John: bub..erm..got it, handstand, scissor split, twirl...*giggle*.

Big Mike: And don't forget - point your toes, they mark off if we don't. And stop giggling please. *sigh* Synchronized water ballet is not for weenies.
