Me:  He looks like Drew Carey.

Scot:  Yes he kind of does.

Me:  I wonder if his name is Andrew or just Drew.

Scot: Andrew sounds like the name of a boy who would get beat up.

Me:  No one would dare beat up Andrew McCarthy.

Scot:  Andrew McCarthy is the one person your mom would dump me for.

Me:  In a heartbeat.

Katie:  Isn’t Andrew McCarthy that guy who made the list of communists?

Scot:  What?

Me:  She means that other McCarthy guy.

Scot:  Oh Senator Joseph McCarthy.

Katie:  I thought his name was Andrew.

Me:  Andrew McCarthy is so much better looking.

Katie and Scot are watching an interview with Jim Butcher.  Someone asked if Harry Dresden is a Red Sox  fan or a White Sox fan.

Katie: (paused the video) Do they have both kinds of socks?

Scot:  Yes the Red Sox and the White Sox are both baseball teams.  Actually now the Red Sox are just the Reds.

Katie:  If the Red Socks and the White Socks fight on the same field and it rains, would all their socks turn pink?  Do they actually wear red and white socks?

Scot: I think they do but it is spelled SOX.

Katie: What?  That is stupid.

Katie:  (setting a stack of CD’s next to Scot)  You could copy these CD’s onto your hard drive while you are working.

Scot:  I don’t know if I have software on this computer that will do that. (Work laptop)

Katie:  You should have Windows Media Player and that should do it.

Scot:  But doesn’t that only do WMA files?  I don’t like WMA files.  I like MP3’s and OGG’s.

Katie:  It used to – I – I think it used – It used – I think it – I – I think – I think it – I – I don’t know.

Scot:  Okay, thanks.   I think I feel a headache coming on.

Katie:  They had Sriracha to put on the hot dogs.

Me:  What is Sriracha exactly?

Katie:  It is like an Asian Texaco sauce.

Me:  (At this point I am thinking a mixture of barbecue and taco sauce or some type of Asian gasoline)  Texaco sauce?

Katie:  You know, that really hot sauce.

Me:  (Laughing) That would be Tabasco sauce.

Katie:  Oh, I knew it started with a T and ended with CO.

Are you making an opera-tizer?

Katie:  Sam, wasn’t that pirate letter pretty cool?  It is showing what pirates were really like.

Sam:  How old are the Olympics?

Katie: About 2000 years.  Do you like the pirate book?

Sam:  How come girls were not allowed to race in the Olympics.

Katie:  Because they did not treat women and men the same in those times.  Sam, this page shows you how to tie knots like pirates did.  Did you know that there are still pirates today but they are mostly in Somalia and places like that?

Sam:  What if an ancient Greek person traveled to the future and saw that girls were in the Olympics?

Katie:  Well Sam, women can compete in the Olympics today.

Me:  He said someone from ancient Greece and the future to them could be today.

Katie:  Do you want me to read more of this pirate book to you?

Sam:  Well I think they would be surprised to see girls in the Olympics.

Me:  I don’t think you two are operating on the same wavelength.

Follow the white rabbit.

Katie:  Hey look, we’re following the white stuff.  It looks like somebody tried to snort crack out the window. I probably shouldn’t have said that with Sam in the car.  Don’t do drugs, they are bad for you.

Cool!

We have central air and were standing next to the running air conditioner.

Katie:  What is that thing?

Me:  The air conditioner

Katie:  What does that do, condition the air?

Scot:  No Katie, that keeps the house cool.  Have you noticed that when it is hot outside, it is not hot in the house?

Katie:  The air must be piped in somehow then.

Scot and I (in unison):  Yes, through the vents.

Katie:  Oh, now I get it.  I only knew how window air conditioners worked.

Whose episode is it anyway?

Katie: Hey, I think this is the last episode I have seen–before the next one.  Oh wait, that made no sense.    (Watching Doctor Who)

Picked up Katie from rehearsal last night.  About 30 minutes into driving home from Vancouver and after stopping to grab dinner:

Katie:  Did you notice that the camel was wearing a hat?

Me:  What?

Katie:  The camel in the window.  It was wearing a hat.

Me:  What window?

Katie:  The window by the door.

Me:  The door to where?

Katie:  The church.

Me:  There is a camel in the church?

Katie:  It is not a real camel.

Me: And it is wearing a hat?

Katie: Yes.

Me:  Nope, I didn’t notice.
