Sillies

Me to Albert, over dinner last night:  "I'm not entirely convinced our kids know that dinosaurs aren't real living animals."

Alex: "What do you mean "not real"?  What are they?"

Me, to Alex: "Well, they're extinct.  That means they used to live on Earth and now they don't."

Albert (oh so helpfully): "So where do they live then?"

Josh, with a mouthful of pancake,: "At the zoo!"

Alex, definitively: "No they don't Josh!  They live in the jungle with the cowboys!"

Yikes! Maybe Albert is going to have to reconsider his plan for Mathletes. At least they're cute...

Wait, what do you mean they're not real? I thought they lived in the North Pole with Santa Claus!
