"Mom can I play with the slingshot?"
"Sure as long as you don't put rocks or anything else in it and do NOT shoot it at anyone or anything."
"Thanks MOM!"
A little while later...
"Mom, guess what?"
"What?"
"I was playing army men and I almost hit a bird with the pinecone I put in the sling shot. I mean it was like an inch away!"
John pipes up, "VERN, why would you want to kill a bird?"
"Because it was the bad guys and I was the army guy and had to kill them."
All the time I am thinking...Did you miss the part about not putting anything IN the slingshot?
