Meanwhile, the world's greatest five year old went to the zoo Sunday afternoon. The sky threatened rain, so I carried an umbrella. One of the pandas was stretched out on a log. I asked if The Kid saw it. She looked intently.

A moment's silence. Then, "I see it! Give me the umbrella!!"

Me: "Ok, why?"

"I need to shoot it."

Careful aim; "kershoo."

I don't even know where that game came from, but when in need, an umbrella makes a perfectly serviceable gun. We proceeded to annihilate most of the big game at the zoo. I suppose I am lucky not to be in jail today.
