Deep Thinker

Asked by a kid today during our discussion of American wartime production during WWII:

"What can we do to just convince the rest of the world to like us?"

This same kid made the following prophetic statement no fewer than two weeks ago:

"Why don't we just drop a nuclear bomb on the whole place?" (referring to Iraq and Afghanistan)

While Discussing the Great Depression

While discussing the SNL episode where Chris Farley warns Christina Applegate and the other guy whose name I don't recall about living in a van down by the river:

"I don't think we were alive when that was on."

While discussing pictures of children living in poverty during the Depression:

"That girl has the soul of a wolf."
