  Professor : That is correct! The medulla oblongata...

  Bobby Boucher : But Mama said...

  Professor : The medulla oblongata... is where anger, jealousy and aggression come from. Now, is there anybody here can tell me where happiness comes from? Anyone? All right, let's hear what Mama has to say on the subject.

  Bobby Boucher : Mama say that happiness is from magic rays of sunshine that come down when you feelin' blue.
