JULIUS: Whatcha doing, Grammy?
GRAMMY: Just looking for something.
JULIUS: Looking for what?
GRAMMY: Oh, never mind. What are you doing?
JULIUS: Looking at my belly button.
GRAMMY: Your belly button?
JULIUS: Uh, huh. Typhus has an outie. I have an innie. What do you have?
GRAMMY: Ha! I haven’t seen my belly button in years, boy. I’m afraid to look.
JULIUS: What’s it for?
GRAMMY: What’s it for? It’s for people to stick their fingers in. You know, like you do with your ears and your nose.
JULIUS: But what if you have an outie?
GRAMMY: Well, then you get to push it in and out like a button.
JULIUS: Why?
GRAMMY: Why? Well, why are you poking around at it now?
JULIUS: I don’t know. Something to do.
GRAMMY: Well, there you go. Sometimes, you just have nothing to do and your belly button is always handy.
JULIUS: You’re so smart, Grammy. You know everything.
GRAMMY: Yeah, except for what the hell I came out here looking for.

The real reason for belly buttons is to collect lint--if you clean your b.b. out regularly, after about half a million years you'll have enough lint to stuff a pillow. You never know when you'll need an extra pillow, so it's better to start collecting when you're young.
