"Will you get me a bowl of ice cream ?" "Sure ." "Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it. " She asks "No , I can remember it .
" "Well , I'd like some strawberries on top , too .Maybe you should write it down , so 's not to forget it ?" He says , I can remember that .You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries." "I'd also like whipped cream .
I'm certain you'll forget that , write it down ?" she asks.
