Son went through an Alice’s Caterpillar stage in which he insisted that when HE used a word it meant what he INTENDED it to mean. It was quite a long stage… he’s over 40 now and still uses HIS (by golly) words that way… though not as much as when he was 14.
This kid will grow up to be like my wife, who uses the very same technique for her dynamic honeydew lists. 10 seconds on the lips = at least 30 minutes of errands, yard work, etc.

I kinda liked apertifs. Even spelled that way.
Think of it: an alcoholic drink as homework. I had the wrong teachers…

Young kids thought processes often resemble a really revved up butterfly in a field of flowers. No keep track of it.

This is why Frazz hasn’t settled down yet. He doesn’t want to spend his money on children.

Okay, how many third graders would use ‘aperitif’ as an example (besides Caulfield?) [and Jef, you misspelled it.]

I just tore out all the girls and baby stuff in the Sears Christmas catalogue and gave what was left to my parents.
