A converstaion with James, my two year old...Okay. Really, he just babbles and I translate it into English...
James: ...Okay, carry the 7...and divide by...
Me: What are you working on?

James: Oh, here's a fun one! 26.29% of the people that meet you think that you smell like rice pudding.

Me: Well, here's a statistic for you, Baby Einstein. 50% of the people in this room have poop in their pants.
James: ...That's just mean
