conversation the boys had in the car today...

obi: mom. can i be a policeman when i grow up?

me: yep. you can be anything you want to be.

conner: i still am gonna be a garbage man.

me: awesome.

obi: conner, i get to be a policeman and shoot people. i could shoot you. but i won't. i will only shoot robbers.

conner: what if they shoot you first and your dead.

obi: well i'll just take cover. and shoot them first always.

conner: you can't take cover in the desert.

obi: i don't live on the desert.

conner: but you could when you grow up.

obi: but i won't. i live here on earth. not the desert.

conner: the desert is on the earth obi. and you can't take cover in the desert.

obi: but i live on the earth, and there isn't a desert.

conner: it's on the other side of earth.

obi: well, i am only going to live on this side of earth. over here. this side. only.

conner: ok. but you still might not be able to take cover.

obi: i can always take cover.

merrick: i'm going to be iron man, and boom all the robbers away with my fi-ya. (fire)
