WhistlingBadger:
They do keep me from taking myself too seriously.   ;D

TimBo:
My wife was playing The Stars and Stripes Forever for her 4th graders yesterday.  She said it was the national march and was by John Philip Sousa.  One girl asked, "Is that why they named the tuba after him?"  (Yes, this is probably only funny for musicians...)

Strelets:
When my son was four years old he asked "Daddy, why does it rain?" He listened very attentively to my explanation of the cycle of evaporation, nucleation, condensation and precipitation, in terms that I hoped he would understand. When I had finished he said "No Daddy, it rains because plants need a drink."

WhistlingBadger:
One evening, when my daughter was about 4 or 5, we were following a fairly complicated set of directions through a farming area.  Mrs. Badger said to turn west, so I did.  I asked my daughter if she knew how to tell we were going west.  She said, "'Cause if we weren't going west, we'd be going somewhere else."  (words to live by, right there)  I had to agree, but then I told her about sunset, and how, in the evening, the sun will be in the west.  She listened very politely, then said, "Yeah, plus, West is probably gonna look more cowboy-like."

Will Tell:
My 4 year old Granddaughter was arguing with my son. She looked at him very seriously and said, "your going to have to learn to get along with me."
