Thursday, March 9

tonight: at the dinner table

SOMEWHERE IN PARIS. EVENING.

the four year old, suddenly: "so! did you hear about this avian flu?"

the seven year old, "yeah."

the four year old: "yeah. it's chickens right? chickens got it? the avian flu? it's chickens. it's chickens, right?"

the seven year old, "yeah, chickens got it."

the four year old: "chickents got it. the avian flu."

the seven year old, very seriously: "yeah. someone died."

the four year old, "so, do you know who built the first submarine?"
