The wondrous mind of the five-year-old

L: Who's taking me to school?
Pygment: Nobody, if you keep whining.
L: Then how will I get there?
Pygment: You'll have to walk.
L: But I can't cross the street.
Pygment: Hmm, that'd be a problem. How about if you ride a camel?
L: Noooo!
Pygment: OK, then, an elephant! You could ride an elephant to school.
L: No! Remember, they're endangered!

Me (sotto voce): I'm totally blogging this.

L (looking over at my screen): Why are you doing that?
Me: Because I want to.
L: Can we go now?
