Actually, Offy, this conversation, though small in word count, lasted nearly half-an-hour.
Those "..."s were really long.

A conversation like that happens with a neighbor when you call them Mr. or Mrs. or Miss whatever their last name is. Maybe you all would have more to say if you were on a first name basis?

Well, I thought a little voice was necessary here.
No big deal, really. I mean, I guess you can say I'm a humorous person. So what say you? I'm free tomorrow night.

Btw, that was very un-PC of you, bandana.
The appropriate term is "loony bin".

Actually, I was thinking maybe he was in some mental
hospital close to your house.
So how you like 911? Have I ever told you any mental hospital jokes before?

Maybe I meant barbed wire around my neighbor's house, bandana?
And maybe by "away" I meant "in prison"?
...
But I didn't.

Are these clues to solving the post?
Because it reads rather mysterious to me.
Barbed wire around your uncle's house? Do you guys bark when people walk by? That'd be pretty funny.

Several reasons, bandana:
1) The houses are rather far apart. (And note I said "neighbor", not "next-door neighbor".)
2) He was away for a while (during which the package was presumably sent).
3) The barbed wire.

I don't understand. Why did your NEIGHBOR send you
guys a package? Why couldn't he just bring it over?

Editor's note:
"No one will understand this one at all," warned my best friend, Manon.
"Oh, sure they will." I replied.

The strange thing, Dolls, is that he always asks how do I "like" the weather ...
When the weather is obviously horrible.
