When you were a little kid what things did you not understand or misunderstand.

I was about 5 years old and and went with my Grandfather to a Western Union office.

I couldn't understand how they could wire money thru a wire.

Here's why I thought this was worth bringing over:

12. I thought all dogs were boys and all cats were girls.

I thought human females peed out of their butts.

I thought my grandpa's chewing tobacco was like gum. Boy was I in for a surprise when I got a hold of some when I was 5.

I didn't understand that a glowing red stove burner was hot until I put my hand on one.

You can tell a DUmmy that the stove is hot, but they won't figure it out until they smell the burning flesh.

Teh smarts are strong with the Tobin.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

I'm not sure how one could think that at all - when I was growing up, virtually all cartoon cats were male -

You would think they would read their shit before posting.

Not only is it painfully uninteresting, it ought to be embarassing.

All dogs ARE male, and all cats ARE female, in French. But so far they don't officially marry each other.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

I always think of DUmmys as five year olds. I bet they still touch the hot plate every year.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Well, for some parity, my brother (5 at the time) put the car's cigarette lighter up to his lips (yes, after it had heated up) because he had seen my mom do it.  He apparently had neglected to notice the cigarette in her mouth at the time . . .

"We will preserve for our children (America), the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done."  -- Ronald Reagan.
