Gracie Allen:
How long does it take for a birthday cake to fly to San Francisco?

George Burns:
Well, that's a normal, everyday question, so I'll give you a normal, everyday answer. What are you talking about?

Gracie Allen:
Well, tomorrow's my sister Hazel's birthday and I mailed her a cake this afternoon. I hope she gets it in time.

George Burns:
Hope you didn't light the candles.

Gracie Allen:
Oh George, please! There weren't even any candles on the cake. You know Hazel, how she's always trying to hide her age. With all those candles it would remind her of it.

George Burns:
So what did you do?

Gracie Allen:
Well, I helped her. I baked the candles inside the cake.
