Lorelai: So, we are holding a knitathon the day after tomorrow to raise money to rebuild the old muddy river bridge.
Christopher: What's wrong with the bridge?
Lorelai: Well, we rebuilt it a couple years ago, but now it's started to rot.
Christopher: Oh, yeah?
Lorelai: Yeah. It's too bad, too, 'cause it was gorgeous. We all loved, loved, loved it. It was sturdy and strong, made out of these beautiful Japanese maple - which it turns out is exactly the kind of wood that attracts beetles. And I'm not talking British-invasion kind of Beatles. I'm talking the kind of beetles that like to eat wood. So now we're gonna make it out of a less-delicious wood.
