Fred Flintstone : What?
Barney Rubble : I just walked through your back yard, Fred, and it's snowing.
Fred Flintstone : Barney, don't be so dumb. Look at this beautiful, sunny day. Now, how can it be snowing in my back yard?
Barney Rubble : I don't know, but I wouldn't go back there without a shovel.
Fred Flintstone : Oh, no!
Barney Rubble : You see, Fred, I told you so.
[Fred finds a flood of rice coming from the kitchen]
Fred Flintstone : Yeah, I see, I see, Barney, I see. It's the rice. I left it cooking too long.
