But Honestly, Why Would You Want To?

My original plan, son, was, since it’s been a while that we’ve really “talked” here, to bring up one of the many topics I’ve been waiting for the right time to broach . . . but then those topics got upstaged.  A quick errand out with you today prompted the following exchange between me and your mother:

Her:  “Everybody loves babies.”

Me:  “Now we both know that’s not true.  Everybody does not love babies.”

Her:  – disdainful sniff –  “You know what I meant.  Everybody of consequence does!”

It’s hard to argue against logic like that, son.  My advice is to not even try.
