My mother, father, brother & I tend to enjoy exchanging smart a$$ comments when we get together. Sometimes it's like a game to see which of us can get the others to laugh, sometimes it's more like trying to see how long we can keep the ball rolling.
Well - it seems that Charles has inherited this "talent" - he had me laughing till I almost cried last night!
Cole and I had watched a movie and afterward we got into a discussion of time travel and it's confounding contradictions. As my brain slowly twisted into a pretzel Cole quipped "All roads lead to Rome!" So I responded "But, you can't get there from here!"
Later, as I tucked the kids in, I asked Charles:
"Is there anywhere in the world you can't get to from here?"
Charles thought for a bit.... "Antarctica?"
"But people have been to Antarctica."
"Not from here!"
"Alright, Charles. Can you think of anywhere, anywhere, that you can't get to from here?"
Again he thought silently for a moment. Then he grinned and replied...
"Uranus?"
I Cracked completely up!
